'Ariel'
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.
Hee! Totally agree with Suela about the abuse. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
And Juliebird,then they were all "Polo!" "Polo!" Heh!
Also agree with the general consensus liking the vet. She totally seemed like a character with a backstory and with a life and opinions and abilities and all that stuff, and since none of that is actually apparent, I'm guessing it was all just excellently done by the actress.
I also loved the fact that Carter just had to go back and tell those guys how to play Marco Polo. He just couldn't resist. LOVE it.
That may have been my favorite bit of the whole ep. Well, that and Henry's moments of re-connecting with Jack.
Yeah, and Jack tormenting Zoe with the overprotective father bit. Played that but good. I have always enjoyed observing parents make the protective noises about their teenagers, even when I was a teenager. I kinda love the "I'm embarrassing you by setting this limit because I have to; I'm enjoying your embarrassment because I can," attitude.
Jumping the shark with a Cousin Oliver before the second season is even over? God, I hope not!
Oh be fair. He was far closer to Poochy than to Cousin Oliver.
I think she might have been a scientist on a season 1 episode of SGA, though--the one where Carson got to work closely with her.
Ah, thank you. Samantha Mulder, of course, has also been on SGA. And apparently Teryl Rothery has filmed an episode, which I saw when looking her up on IMDB.
She was also on Another World many moons ago, I think.
I think that you're thinking of Rhonda Lewin, who played Vicky/Marley. I can see why you thought that. (BTW, not an AW geek, I had to look it up :) )
He was far closer to Poochy than to Cousin Oliver.
Fine. He can go home to his own planet now. On the Henry Blake memorial spaceship.
Man, I just caught a few minutes of Mega Snake.
Michael Shanks either has the worst agent in history, or a disgustingly bad contract with Sci-Fi. Poor bastard.
I was thinking the same when Adam Baldwin and Morena Baccarin had to do that "Sands of Oblivion" movie. Yikes.
BTW, not an AW geek, I had to look it up
I was but I still would have had to look that up.
I just IMDB'd her (Allison Hassock), and she did actually play a character on Another World - Olivia was her name. I think she had a crush on Sam. She might have been a ballet dancer. She was quite young. Fear my soap-fu, people.
(I didn't watch during Rhonda Lewin's years, apparently. The only Vicky/Marley actors I remember are Anne Heche and Jensen Buchanan.)
"Megasnake" was an order of magnitude worse than "Sands of Oblivion." I watched most of both. I'm not sure what that says about me.
