All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

Didn't love ep 1, was interested by 2, in love by 3. I just watched ep 8, and I can't believe how quickly I've become attached to the characters and their universe.
I , the first couple episodes, but I was pretty much just watching out of loyalty. Then, when "Out of Gas" hit, Tim had me believing, for a split second, that he may well just kill off the captain and or crew and start fresh, well, he had me. Because I believed wholeheartedly that if anyone was capable of it, Minear was. Now I'm hooked.
I've even adapted my New Buffy dance to express my bouncy delight.
Oh good. I'mnot the only one who does this.
Victor, brother! I once described my Dance of New Buffy to Hec as a cross between football cheering, the twist, and the can-can. The Angel version has Stirring Pot dancing (I'm sorry, I don't know the real name, I learnt it off Ricki Lake) added to the mix. The Firefly dance contains much hip shimmying, elaborate hand movements, and dosey-doing. Wait, where are you all going? Come baaaack, dance with me! You know you wanna.
Do ya do ya do ya do ya wanna dance?

That would be the Cabbage Patch Dance I think. Can I get ruling by Jesse?
Um, yeah, sounds like the Cabbage Patch.
curtsies at Betsy and swings her around the thread, googles Cabbage Patch
Yep, that's the one. Technically it's only performed when I predict something and it happens, and then I bounce around being smug and obnoxious. Though I'm sticking with my name for it, because cabbage patch? Why? This is one of those Confuse the UnAmericans things, isn't it?
I will resist Natter until I finish grading, I will.

Heh. When I played Claudio in Much Ado About Nothing, we used to cabbage patch backstage at rehearsals and shout, "Whoop! There it Doth!"
Ahem.
OK, I'm officially jonesing. God, these shows rule all. Still unsure about Firefly, but I was right about it being Blake's 7. Only with no Avon

I think it was named after the Cabbage Patch Kids dolls that were popular back when. Why? I don't know. It is the generic dance of mildly obnoxious celebration.
Oh Victor, my friends are going to strangle you for putting "Whoop! There it doth!" in my head. Luckily they're geek enough to enjoy it the first few times.
Now I'm all curious to see if Jim follows the Buffista path of Firefly love. "Ok. Oooh. Yay! WOO!"
Oh! Cabbage Patch Kids, I vaguely remember them, though I think I was a little too young to actually want one. Freaky chubby toys with a permanent smirk/grimace and bright hair?
10 more papers to go, to go. 10 more papers to gooooo.
