I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

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.

AUGH. Must catch up with Life on Mars. I just finished watching 2.05, which I thought was an interesting episode that didn't quite gel. Lots of good moments, but the central idea of the flashbacks/visions never really worked.

Which one is 2.05, Dana?

The one with the guy whose wife and child are kidnapped, and there's a problem with Sam's medication.

I thought that was the best episode of the series! The Camberwick Green intro did it for me. I haven't laughed that much in ages. Even the Nonce waves. But I don't know if Camberwick Green ever made it to the States.

Last episode fanwank: Jen, I totally agree that he knew that jumping would take him back, and that's why he did it. In fact, I think the writer agrees, so.

See, Fiona, I'd already seen the intro bit, since it was used in a promo, or leaked, or something. And I laughed and laughed, though I'm sure I didn't get the entire reference. But what's not to love about Claymation!Gene banging a trash can lid into someone's head repeatedly?

It was just the rest of it, the main plot, that didn't *quite* work for me. I still thought it was a very enjoyable episode. I love seeing the slight changes in the way the cops do things, especially Gene and Chris.

Maybe part of the problem is that I thought from the beginning that the husband was the killer. I was kind of impressed that they'd circumvented it at the end, but then it came right back around to his being the killer.

I loved the use of the Hawkwind tune at the beginning of that episode, but that's the music geek in me talking.

For those not aware, the Stargates start back up tonight on Sci-Fi. Yay!

I just spotted a recipe called "Supernatural Brownies."

You must have to surround the pan with rocksalt while baking.

And don't forget to add a splash of holy water.
