Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

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.

So apparently putting off buying the SGA season 2 DVDs until I finished my taxes was a smart move, because as of this morning, I am getting someone's presumed-lost-in-shipping DVDs for FREE.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yay for free! I can't remember if I have SG:A S2 yet or not. Must check.

Apparently with the SGA DVDs I am also going to be given a pimp disc of The Dresden Files. (In return, I will be slipping her 20 episodes of FNL, so basically I am making out like gangbusters in this exchange.)

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

Beverly, not just you. I was thinking about this the other day, with Dresden Files. I love getting the scripts and watching the show while reading, watching how the actors chose to interpret the words and the written direction. I only ever got scripts for Joss' shows; I wish I could get my hands on more scripts!

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

So I was three weeks behind on BSG, and watched it all last night. (I should have meara'd, but there you are...) This season has been such a scattershot, it feels like. Definite rewatch in the future, just to try to see if it strings together. I think my biggest problem has been that I completely lost what the hell was going on with Baltar. I enjoyed watching his character, and suddenly he seemed to take a left turn.

I 100% called Starbuck's return, and it makes me feel simultaneously cool and a little disappointed. No body, not dead. (Or Lee's got an invisible friend now too, which wouldn't surprise me either.)

The Big Cylon Reveal:
Do I remember correctly that even the Cylons (or at least Six) don't know who the Final Five are? So it's possible they could be Cylons and no one would have known. Also, the Cylons seemed to theorize that the requirement for having children with humans was the love component. Chief and Cally are in love, they have a baby, see above re: Helo and Sharon.

But I wasn't sold on it. Unless I missed something, it basically seemed to me that "We can all hear the music that isn't there, and we all wanted to go to one room, so clearly WE'RE CYLONS OMG!!1!" Couldn't hearing the music be an indicator of something else? I was thinking about how it's a bit of a shame that they didn't focus more on who comes from what colony, because I think it would be interesting to have a "representative" for each colony, lead by Starbuck, with a pre-destined biological determination to unite the tribes. (The human equivalent of the 12 models, if you will...)

Conclusion: I am the only person left in the universe who hasn't done a cover of AAtW.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Another BSG irritation: How can Tigh be a Cylon when he fought in the 1st Cylon War (i.e. before there were skin jobs)?

If I only had a brain...

S3 Who trailer via the BBC. As spoilery as any official trailer gets, but not by my standards serious -- nowhere near as bad as the premature Cybermen reveal, for instance. There is a shot of the Famous Returning Character and one of (actor spoiler) Derek Jacobi. Can I get a SQUEEEE?

Ah, that was great. I'm jealous of all of you who can "ahem."

Oh, you get a big SQUEEEEE from me on that actor, Betsy!!! That's even better than ASH showing up in S2.

I know. I mean, holy fuck. It's like getting Judi Dench.
