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.
That's a bit of a straw man argument, Kate. Those are hardly the only two options.
Of course -- and I also said that
I could have bought the staying-in-2006 decision if we'd had more time with Sam there. What I meant -- and articulated poorly -- was that, by the point in the episode when Sam wakes up (around the 48 minute mark), there was no time left to convince me that he should stay in 2006, and I only wanted to see him return to 1973.
They certainly could have
brought Sam back earlier and spent more time on his re-integration into his old life, but I don't think that's the kind of story they were interested in telling, nor the one they had been telling up until that point.
To me,
Sam's story turned out to be much less about *how* he got to 1973, and more about how he lived there and was changed by his time there.
I tried to read that Dodger-Winslow essay, and like much of her fic, MEGO and I started tilting sideways.
Also, she's wrong about John. His boys come first. But I have the advantage of hindsight, as that essay was written a year ago.
Would it be petty of me to say that I was constantly distracted while reading the Dodger-Winslow essay by the many typos? Yes, I suppose it would be. (And I'm certainly not claiming that my posts have never contained a mistake.) Interesting ideas, much food for thought. I just wish it had been run through spell check before being posted.
My Eyes Glazed Over. She uses too many words.
and Alona Tal really, really looks like a young waifish blonde version of Jilli.
This inexplicably makes my head kinda hurt. No, I don't know why.
I'm afraid it's become my standard response to D-W. Her language is fine, and I generally like her characterizations, but she needs the machete like nobody's business. She could cut 60% of her prose and not lose anything.
Suela, I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I was starting to feel like it.
A lot of her stuff I'd probably really enjoy if only it were pruned into a tighter shape.

But it's TRUE. Goth up Alona Tal, pad her bra, and man, she could play you in the movie of your life.

I tend to like her stuff, but I also tend to read her at work, when I tend to skim more than I do if I am reading at home.
