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.
I would be REALLY strongly opposed to discussion of another show taking over our Buffy & Angel thread, even if it is low volume. That would feel disrespectful of our origins to me.
Matt is me.
The W&P'ers seem to be having such a good time. My only problem, and it's very minor, is that if you post about something else during a W&P, it's likely to get lost.
This is sort of off-the-wall, but if people start wanting to do this with other shows that have recently come out as DVDs, maybe we could just establish a W&P thread. (B5 W&P, anyone?)
I don't watch SPN, but this is the right thread for it, so having the w&p here is cake; having a link to the end of it for the convenience of skipping would be icing.
Very much this. And sorry if my original comment was read as a "get-thee-elsewhere" statement. I just remembered that during the HEROES lightbulb discussion there was supposition that SPN probably had more posting going on for it and the current numbers bear that out (the fact that HEROES went on hiatus so soon after the thread went live, coupled with the lack of DVDs, is a major factor - I'm curious how the numbers go in HEROES since there's so much antici....pation for the next round of new episodes).
When I notice the big jump in posts in Boxed Set it means suck and skim time. It brings a smile to my face to skim the flailing. It amuses, doesn't annoy. I may even watch the show some day.
The only time I get frustrated in this thread is when there is a lot of show discussion overlap. My brain gets confused! If SPN and Eureka add characters named Lee brain will explode. At those time a show note at the beginning of the post would be most helpful. If someone has a sudden Eureka or BSG question or comment in the midst of the flailing they should post away with a show tag.
Also, next week SciFi Friday returns! Whee!
My point about putting the name of the show in your posts is that you can then search through combined W&Ps for the show that you are talking about.
I think it's more important at the start of a discussion, or when someone is posting about a different show (e.g. suddenly switching to Eureka when the most recent string of posts has been about Dresden Files).
Sometimes there is a flurry of posts on more than one show simultaneously, so there is occasional mix-n-match. If we work to develop the habit of labelling our posts, that will be less of a challenge.
My SPN DVDs came yesterday! They're so shiny and wrapped in plastic.

They're still wrapped? You haven't unpacked them to at least watch the gag reel yet?
Scifi will be marathoning season 3 of BSG in mid-May.
The last paragraph is a bit confusing but I think that they meant to say that the 4th season will start shooting in May to be aired in early 2008.
I do tend to read through them myself (guessing at what is actually going on when somebody posts, "Oh no! Weepy alert!" or "If you make that face too much it will get stuck that way, Sam."),

It's like I don't even know you, P-C. Still wrapped?
