Time for some thrilling heroics.

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.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I think my problem with the season was that the arc got so tampered with that it didn't feel cohesively of a piece -- it would have been a much better kicker to the season to find out that Harry's uncle was still alive, for instance.

Also, Murphy's character needed more of an arc of belief/disbelief.

I'd love to see the show come back for another season.

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

I loved the episode! The kiss was cute, and Harry's going to need a couple weeks to process the fact that Murphy invited him to do it again (safely).

Bob looked rather envious for a moment after they figured out what the branding iron did. Like he wished he'd thought of that.

Harry's not a fighter, but he's a big guy. I wish he'd learn how to throw a solid punch. Hell, Murphy knocked him off-balance with a slap.

Harry turning the shop sign to "Closed" there at the end was a little ominous, though. I really want a second season.

I refuse to take that as any sort of portent.

What is even happening?

Yeah, I really need Paul Blackthorne on my TV, on a regular basis, preferably as Harry Dresden.

I fell asleep for the last ten minutes of the episode. But we watched Drive, and then the re-run DF (because we'd missed it before), so it wasn't episode quality that caused the slumber.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

DF: It was okay. I felt it was a little off character-wise, but nothing too bad. I just, as with everything else in this series, would have liked more build-up.

I definitely agree with Theo about the arc tampering. I think it affected seriously the way I enjoyed the season.

I missed the DF finale. Boo. I'm hoping it'll be up again soon.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Did anybody watch Blood Ties? Now with Julian Sand as yet another villian? I'm seeing a bit more smoothness as the actors settle into their characters.

I laughed and laughed when Coreen (Gina Holden) started spouting Wendigo lore. I guess she took notes during her guest shot on the S1 ep of SPN, "Wendigo".

I like Coreen a lot, though. She's quirky and smart. And the snark between Henry and Celluci just gets better and better.

Yes, it was another good episode and Sands is an excellent villain.
