Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Buffy ,'Beneath You'


Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) 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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

If it's all in one person's head, then there isn't that mad scramble for details that tends to undo the whole illusion. The brain just fills in the holes, like a puzzle of cognition.

Yes, exactly.

You know, I kind of wish I were kidding when I say that I think I could fill a Tolstoy-length book picking things apart in this episode, but it's managed to turn my entire head into one huge Dean-centric tl;dr. More so than usual, I mean.

Having already done Chapter One: The Zeppelin Trilogy, or, A Tale of Two Crises, I'm dangerously close to starting Chapter Two: Brother, Mother, Sister, Lover, or, Aspects of the Deanon. (Y'know, like canon or fanon, and calling back to that whole Earshot episode of Buffy, with the aspect of the demon? Because one vague bad pun can be excused, but two show they're possibly habit forming, especially when the second one's a reach.)

I'm seriously in need of a hobby.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

New Who: so who is this Saxon guy talking to Martha's Mum ? Are we supposed to know him?

Capybara fic!

Err-- sorry- that was mostly for Cass.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Are we supposed to know him?

Only if you've been paying attention to casting spoilers.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Are we supposed to know him?

Only if you've been paying attention to casting spoilers.

Or the first episode of the season when a Vote Saxon poster was very prominent.

also here's a link to some previous hints [link] (Semi-Spoilery for s3 Dr Who, including runaway bride, but not majorly)

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Also, with the official preview at the end of this week's episode, we can officially speculate on Captain Jack Harkness, as the character was shown.

Art Crawl!!!

I thought that all of this WAS your hobby?

(Hee, I'm not reading the Who whitefont -- but I BET I know what it's about.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Re. the Doctor Who casting spoiler:

So, do I need to finish watching Torchwood season 1 for me to grok the episodes where Captain Jack shows up? 'Cause... uhm, I kind of *violently* loathed what I've seen of Torchwood and I'd rather not revisit the show unless it's necessary. Maybe I can just watch the final two-parter...?

that's actually not the casting spoiler i was referring to, but i'm excited about it too.

to answer your question, Vonnie, i doubt it. not that i've read more than casting spoilers. but Torchwood was pretty standalone from DW except for the random mentions here and there.
