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.

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

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?

Art Crawl!!!

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.

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

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."),
a. Dean feels really, really bad.

b. Bitchface.

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

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Article about Dresden Files:

While I agree with some of the author's points, I think he's being overly critical in complaining about the lack of Harry's various allies. One, Harry built up his allies over time and Two, the last thing you want to do with a brand new series is have a constant parade of new characters that the viewers have to try and keep track of. I'd love to see Michael, Thomas, the Alphas and have Harry deal with the fae as well, but I'd rather they be involved slowly so each can get the amount of respect they deserve.

Heee. I came home late after seeing Grindhouse, and then I had all these errands to run today before seeing The Namesake, and I just got back, and...I will gag soon enough!

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

Article about Dresden Files:

Too bad he spent most of the article talking about how bad it was that it didn't follow the books, and then grudgingly admitted it was pretty good on its own.

Personally, I don't want a cast of thousands. It works in the books, because there's more time/space to develop them and their relationships with Harry, but in a 42-minute show, they'd just steal time from the characters I really care about: Harry, Bob, and Murphy. If they only show up a couple times a season, that'd be okay; it would be nice to know that Harry has built up a support system out there even if we didn't see them all the time. Harry needs a support system besides Bob.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm finally almost done with the old Who that's out on DVD, and I think I really want Ace to pop up at some point in the current incarnation. Looking at her bio on wikipedia (And can I just take a moment to comment on the amount of extended universe content?), such an appearance could be substantially different from Sarah Jane's.

Actually, given how similar she and Rose were, it would have been interesting to have done that episode instead of School Reunion, even if I can think of several meta reasons for going with Sarah Jane instead.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Andi and I just watched Series II ep 2 of the new Dr. Who incarnation. Wow. Russel T Davies really embraces the Buffy TVS habit of pop culture referencing, doesn't he?

For instance, Harry Potter and Back to the Future. Who'd have guessed we'd see those things referenced in Dr. Who?

What is even happening?

If the Tardis was worth the police box from which it was built, we would have had those references from the First Doctor.
