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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Yeah, I had to handwave like mad when it came to Digby. Also, dogs pounce on their owners in affection all the time. I don't know how Ned kept Digby away for 19 years!

So, I suppose this means that Digby is immortal. (That dog looked damn spry for a 22 year-old.) The narration did say he was 3 years and some change, and not a minute older. By the same token, Chuck will probably never age -- an additional complication in her relationship with Ned, as if there weren't enough obstacles already!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It's really hard to pet a dog and wave your hands at the same time...

Ha! Good one.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So, I suppose this means that Digby is immortal. (That dog looked damn spry for a 22 year-old.) The narration did say he was 3 years and some change, and not a minute older.

Yeah, I didn't pick up on that the first time, and then I was confused by Chuck's line since she never knew he had died in the first place, and then I started to wonder whether dogs generally lived nineteen years, at which point the only possible conclusion is that he doesn't age since he already died.

By the same token, Chuck will probably never age -- an additional complication in her relationship with Ned, as if there weren't enough obstacles already!

Oh, the angst!

I know. One errant lap of the face and Digby's Dedby.

Not only could I not believe that Digby hadn't bounded up and slimed his boy, I also don't get how Ned (as a boy) didn't pet Digby IMMEDIATELY afterwards.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ha. Maybe Ned's more like a Jamaican. We can go for days without touching our pets...

What was the time gap between the dog and the mom, and were we shown who stayed...right! It was the squirrel that bought it to keep Digby alive, huh? Glad to see it didn't take out a human, but I'd have been very paranoid as Ned about it.

Well, he brought back that fly and it killed his mom.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well, he brought back that fly and it killed his mom.

I don't think so - his Mom died (the first time) of random natural causes. Since bringing Digby back killed a squirrel, bringing a fly back would kill a mosquito somewhere, not a human.

Even more reason to be paranoid. I just don't see any evidence of it.
