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.

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

Yeah, sumi, I was confused too - according to Amazon I pre-ordered it May 19.

At least we know it's actually coming out. I'm dying to find out about a second season. I need more of the Harry-n-Bob Show.

I hope we hear about a second season soon -- I need more of the Harry-n-Bob show too.

Also, re: the Dr. Who Confidentials - I have such a crush on the SFX supervisor named Danny Hargreaves. What a cutie pie. Plus, he blows stuff up. Safely. What's not to love?

Who 3.9:

I agree! I did think that the episode was a little slow getting started (despite the nice resolution to the cliffhanger), but that was probably because my expectations were quite high. Also I felt that Jessica Hynes and Harry Lloyd didn't really get the chance to shine, certainly not compared to last week.

However once things got going it was PERFECT. Or as near as dammit. Loved the "what might have beens" (I guessed beforehand that was what the marriage-and-kids bit probably was). Poor John Smith. Loved the moment he held the watch and the Doctor resurfaced, and Martha's delight at this. Loved the Martha-Tim interaction. Guessed it was the Doctor, not Smith, in the invisible spaceship. Shivered at the wrath of the Timelord. And poor Joan. "Could you change back". "Yes". "Will you?" "No".

And how happy am I that somebody managed to capture this ?

BTW, next week's Confidential looks really interesting; it's David Tennant talking to various makers of the new series about what Doctor Who means to them.

Yes, next week is the Steven Moffat episode. I also thought that Captain Jack was back next week, but it might be the week after .

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Man, this two-parter f'n *rocked.* I am so impressed with David Tennant. I don't really have anything to say because I'm still kind of processing, but that speech the kid made about what the Doctor is was fantastic, not to mention John Smith calling the Doctor "some kind of lost prince," which is also a lovely description. I also loved that, in seeing the what-might-have-been for John Smith and the matron, we also got a glimpse of what it must be like to *be* the doctor, seeing a thousand different possibilities in the space of a moment. Just brilliant. Right up there with Empty Child/Doctor Dances.

Of course, now we're more than halfway through the series. Woe!

On Dresden--jesus, could they just tell us already?! That's what's driving me crazy the most.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Who is going to be around for a watch and post for SPN 2x3 tonight at 7:00. I know Cass won't be here-- do we want to push it to another night at 7:00?

Hex: Since last summer I've seen the evil-priest actor as Much the Miller's son on the new Robin Hood. It was amusing to watch him being the evil priest again last night.

And what the heck? BBCA ran the two episodes that came after what they used as the season finale as "extra episodes" - rather than the next episodes. Very weird.
