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.
But I liked the story. That's about it. It wasn't a "calamity of the week" but still a cool little story and I liked that.
I think what I liked most about it, and I hope that Carter realizes, is that he solved the problem all on his own. Usually, it's beyond his understanding because everyone else is so much more scientifically advanced than he is (i.e. "ice funnel of death"), so they (Henry and/or Alison) has to interpret the problem before he can solve it. This time, it was all him.
Also, back to the name thing, the doctor in the woods called her "Miss Blake". What does that say about how Carter views Alison? Or am I reading too much into it because I have that whole academia title issue?

I twitched at that too, Vortex. It's the kind of thing that's impossible not to notice once you're sensitized to it, whether or not it's really an issue.
Henry looks so so wrong in office clothes.
As much as I'm loathing Abby (and not in the "we're meant to hate her" way), I really liked her at Carter's bedside demanding to know what's going on.
when Zoe asks Carter what he's afraid of, Carter replies "Right now, that" and points at the blue swirly light on the bridge. Maybe it's just coincidental with the pretty pretty lights, but perhaps it's also Carter's subconcious tying in the pretty pretty lights that ended his alternate life, taking him away from what he knew and loved --taking
them
away from him. Or it's all one big cawinkydink.
A little heavy handed with the cheese when half the town gathers round Carter's bedside, but still sweet.
Half the town would be 1500 people...for now.
The entire BSG panel from Comicon is up at Scifi - and the one from SGA.
Also, a fun video of the folks from Heroes being interviewed about the Heroes world tour.
Two notes:
- Maybe it wasn't the concussion alone that caused the device to spaz out, but the fact that Jack's memories were recently wiped, too.
- The reason some of the people had different positions (Henry not at GD, Stark in charge) was that the device wasn't up to date with changes in Eureka. So it wasn't Jack making up the people in the VR, so much as the already established databases on each resident.
- how scary is that?
Bear McCreary says that the BSG record comes out in October. I wonder if that means that the dvds won't come out 'til October?
Dr. seems to be fairly evenly applied to men, less to Allison. Did Kim get a title when referred to by a title? Or was she mostly referred to by her first name.
I liked that Lupo was moving herself "towards more light" in the first scene after the therapy device. I thought that was clever foreshadowing.
