Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I tend to agree with Cindy, despite my umlaut theory. There are boundaries to classic rock. Metallica kind of stretches those boundaries, even, because I think everybody in that band is, like, at most 35, and was in junior high when "classic rock" was busy happening. They're sort of a very strongly classically-oriented hard-rock band, but they are really not classic rock.

Then again, I am waiting and waiting for a Guns 'n' Roses song to show up on Supernatural, followed immediately by commentary on how scary-looking Axl Rose is now. So I'm not too strict about "all songs on the show will be classic rock."

Has anyone fannish come up with a SPN soundtrack/artist list? I've waffled about asking, cause I didn't know if it was Music or Boxed. Hell, I might have already asked and forgot.

Cause I'd like to start listening to more, and I don't think we really have the right station around here.

BTW, I was in Toledo last weekend and happened across the local classic rock station, and I had a little moment of "Bet this is where Kripke got his thing for classic rock." (I am so *ridiculous* for this show.)

Metallica\'s members are well into their 40s.

No porn intended.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

James & Lars are both 43, 'tis true. They kinda look it, too. Metallica was formed in... '81?

I don't define Metallica as "classic rock", though they are a classic.

Kirk is 44. Newish bassist, Robert (the Suicidal Tendancies guy) is the youngest at 42.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can see where Sam would want to wait a month, and I can see where she wouldn't. She's a killer. Killed more than one person. For a good person, that's hard to live with, and the fear of doing it again could drive someone to suicide.

I wonder if the boys have added anything to lore. I mean they go out and do the work, but have they learnt anything new to pass on to the other hunters?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Lore seems to be incredibly poorly distributed, overall. The closest we've ever seen to a trading post or general information clearinghouse is Ellen's bar, and that's not so great, you know? Nobody seems to write stuff down. It's all oral transmission of knowledge, sometimes facilitated by phone, but -- Consuela and I were speculating once, and I decided that hunters need to have a Huntercon, where they get together and talk best practices and have workshops and stuff.

Also, they desperately need a newsgroup or chat board.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The more tight-knit the hunters are, the more easily they could be subverted when one of them turns. It was pretty easy for Sam to whack hunters as it is.

Also, they desperately need a newsgroup or chat board.

Which is why I think a group of urban hunters would rule so hard.

I keep flashing back to the line in Crossroad Blues, where Dean says they know a little about a lot of things, just enough to be dangerous. How much they don't know really seems to be driving this season.

Hmm. Anticipating long thoughts on knowledge in my future.

Yeah, I'm thinking wekillcreepythings.net would act as a magnet for the more crafty and clairvoyant supernatural menaces that want to save time taking out numerous hunters at once.
