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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Welcome, maggiesox. We hardly ever bite new people. Well, unless they like that sort of thing.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I love Claudia Black like nobody's business, but Claudia, honey--you gotta work on that accent. It's still wrong.

I think her American is better than Ben's ,strike>Sebacean Australish.

This and This.

But what was more wrong than that was seeing Jeffrey Spender all bronzed and oiled up and if I put my hand over his face I didn't mind it too much.

Really liked Lee's speech, the way it was written and the way Bamber delivered it (loved Lee's whole pissed-off/petulant attitude when he first gets in the witness box "I SO do not want to be here!")

I thought Claudia was a lot of fun on Dresden Files last night. It amused me to have English Paul and Australian Claudia doing their American accents to each other.

And did any book folks wonder if having the incubus be what it was mean that there won't be any White Court Vampires ? So no Thomas Raith ? Which would make me sad. . . who would you cast as Thomas ?

Couldn't there be different species of them?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Welcome maggiesox! Whether your theory is right or not, the very fact that you thought of it makes you fit right in around here.

I adore Claudia Black, and I swear I did not notice her accent at all. I thought her character was really interesting too. Hope we see more of her.

From what Robert Hewitt has said on the Butcher Board about Dresden Files: if there's a second season, they're probably going to bring in Thomas. They've already got Black Court and Red Court, he hasn't said if they're going to do White Court, but he hasn't ruled it out either.

The incubus was gross ("What the HELL was that?") and I'm a little peeved that they used my favorite symbol (triskelle) for the "incubatic portal". But I'll forgive them. Eventually.

I was really surprised that Harry didn't recognize the triskelle as a symbol of power. It's pretty basic.

Maybe he recognized it, just didn't know what it was being used for.

I get the feeling that while Harry's a powerful wizard, he doesn't have a lot of "book learning", and certainly not a lot of experience. Insiders said the backstory is that he was trained by Bob, under Justin's orders, since he was about 12, so Bob may not have been inclined to do the best job of it, at least back then. (These are not spoilers. Backstory freely available on the SciFi board and Butcher Board. I read them so you don't have to!)

That wasn't the incubus --that was the incubus' soul.

Which was icky.

or, Bob may have been instructed to keep things from Harry so that he wouldn't get too powerful on his own.
