It's not that it feels disrespectful to me, as such, just... dumb. I mean, I am a really, really gullible viewer, and I was convinced she wasn't dead.

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.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Doctor Who 3x02: I think my favorite scene was Martha pounding on the Doctor to restart his heart -- I like when the show uses Tennant's manic energy & physicality to reinforce the Doctor's alienness. I liked this ep a lot. A little too OTT in places, but otherwise very fun. Was this written by the same guy who wrote the Season 1 episode about Charles Dickens?

Doctor Who 3.02: William Shakespeare needs to call me. Stat.
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Expeliamus (or however it's spelled) cracked me up. As did fifty-seven academics punching the air .
Fun ep.

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

Ha, I was reminded of that ep too. But it's not the same author.
I was thinking, earlier today, that given that Shakespeare writes Hamlet after this romp, "There are more things in heav'n and earth than are dream't of in your philosophy" takes on added meaning.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Am I the only one who watched Dresden?

That was excellent!
I love the idea that Ancient Mai is a dragon. (I don't recall if that's in the books.)

All is well that ends in pizza.
Am I the only one who watched Dresden?
For now, at least. We have to wait for *ahem*

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I did!
And yet, I have no particular comment.

Great episode! And we don't KNOW she's a dragon. It's implied. Or inferred. Somebody on the Butcher Board suggested it a while back, too.

Ah. Excellent.
I have to say that the dragons in "The Gift" were better than the one in this episode.
