I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Exactly! I mean, the "50% chance of dying in two days" thing becomes kind of a best-case scenario, doesn't it? How long before someone tries mixing it with heroin and those odds go way way down?

Art Crawl!!!

And drug pushers with lines round the block tend to get busted. . . .

Also, I really, really thought that I had posted the link the the BSG 3 minute promo here.

And I attempted to rewatch Eureka tonight but I am very tired. I fell asleep and woke up at what should have been the big ending. . . and it got CUT OFF and a SciFi movie started and there's no 6 pm showing tomorrow.

I am very, very sad.

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

Sumi, that's unfair.

Jessica, I basically figured that most of the homeless people were just going to take it themselves. Grassroot superpowers, no matter what distro speech Jordan was giving. Whatsername's sister sure was keeping them for herself.

Now, Whatsername got a shot, right? I'm guessing she needs more to develop any powers, but that was a vision that Maia got wrong, no? How often has she been wrong?

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.

I laughed often and enjoyed the banter very much. What fun.

You said all I need to.

You mean Maia's mom? Or her aunt?

Maia's mother -- didn't the scientist inject her once against her will? And Maia had a vision of her getting really ugly, or something?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So finally SciFi is letting me watch what I asked it to tape (Obviously the channel hates me and I shall have to eat bugs while they try to tell me it's only an undocumented feature waving tentacles at me, but I digress. A lot.) and Eureka gave me a giggle at, "It's generic."

I feel the need to skim back to the show's airing and see what else is making people laugh. But I am only half way through and feel that it would be spoilish of me. The quandry of the TiFaux and reairs...

Why did the Carter and Dylan start to replay at the end of the show? I feel I missed something.

The "why's it look like me?" and "it's generic" were improvised because, sadly, it did look like me and, sadly, it is generic. Love acting with Joe.
Now I am slightly more amused. And I feel a little bad. Mostly just giggling though.

Clever lines, clever delivery and clever banter - I'm predictable.

The out of order showing of episodes bugs but it is a bug that I am used to it by now. I figure it isn't the show's fault. And knowing it was out of order before I even saw it helps as well. If I just reslot everything back to the way it should be, it fits.

Cass - is that what happened? Because -- weird. And I was so distracted on Tuesday, I can't remember the actual ending.

Well, Maia's mom did get really sick but she didn't go as far as Kevin.

I thought that Maia said she'd get ugly, not sick.
