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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

No one is going to be held accountable for this stuff? Find guilty and pardon, fine, but not guilty?

The thing is, he's already been pardoned, which Lee pointed out -- Roslin issued a blanket pardon for all collaborators right after she took office again. Obviously she didn't intend to include Baltar in that, but what use is a blanket pardon if it's everyone except the guy we already decided we didn't like?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

There's no way in hell Laura Roslin was ever going to pardon Baltar. She would have airlocked him as soon as the word "Guilty" came from the head judge's lips.

Don't forget that Tyrol already suspected he was a Cylon when he had his little one-on-one with Brother Cavill back in season 2, so his reaction in last night's ep was more a confirmation to him than a shock, I think. I do love how Tigh's so-typical ultimate reaction was "I'm going to do my damn job and stick by Adama" nicely reflected Sharon's situation.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I learned that the idea was not that Bob Dylan necessarily exists in the characters' universe, but that an artist on one of the colonies may have recorded a song with the exact same melody and lyrics. Perhaps this unknown performer and Dylan pulled inspiration from a common, ethereal source.

Er. Sure, Ron.

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

Bob Dylan exists in all universes. Those without him cannot sustain themselves and soon implode. Where Bob Dylan does not exist, it is necessary to invent him.

Granted, in some universes, he can actually sing.

Trust my rage

So, I thought Lee was hearing the music too? or did I just imagine that. I need to rewatch, i think.

Our wings are not tired.

Perhaps this unknown performer and Dylan pulled inspiration from a common, ethereal source.

So perhaps we could find new meaning from the episode if we could share in this common, ethereal source. So say we all?

Art Crawl!!!

I don't remember Lee ever hearing the music.

Okay, but what about the freaky thing where Laura, Sharon, Hera and Six ALL have the same dream? Is that sort of prophetic dream evidence of cylonic descent? (Are all the oracles descended from Cylons?)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I suspect the common, ethereal source might be monkey crack.

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.

This is one of them. "Lay, Lady, Lay" anyone?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I suspect the common, ethereal source might be monkey crack.

This is my opinion, all though I wonder if they've started lacing crack with LSD these days.
