Gunn ,'Power Play'
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.
I'm confused. Was there a new Who episode this past weekend or not?
I'm three episodes behind, mostly because "Dalek in Mahattan" was making me roll my eyes with the anvils so I stopped watching after the first 20 mins, but I really should catch up before the one with the casting spoilers air.
The most recent one is episode 6.
Doctor Who was preempted for this: [link]
Oh, my God. My eyes! Is that like a pan-Europe American Idol?

I do actually sympathize with the hissyfit, because I wouldn't take that job if you paid me
I do sympathize as well, but at the same time I also resent being graded on my participation. I'm a contrary little punkass that way. I want to have my cake and eat it while lurking!
Where does Joe Flanigan get off being so damn cute? He's like his own Mary Sue. Bastard.

Where singing can be any kind of value from thrash-metal future-punk to Bollywood love anthems. Good times.
Folks here are talking about it pretty consistently and it's therefore on my radar far more than usual. Slate had a great article on the Eurovision song contest and its political implications last year.

Yeah, one of my comms is going through that right now as well. Actually, two of them are. It's kind of a pain.
