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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Anna Friel was also one half of the first lesbian kiss on British primetime tv, in Brookside.

The show easily won its timeslot with a 9.2/14 rating/share in the metered markets, which is huge.

Good Lord! That's like twice the size of the audience I expected.

What I want to know is how in hell did he keep from touching his dog between the time he brought him back and re-deading his mom? Even if the dog was well trained enough then to obey staying away, why would Ned avoid touching him?

Shame they didn't make the flashback to one year later, as Ned would have just seen Pet Semetary the following year, giving a very good rationale for being cautiously standoffish towards Resurrected!Digby.

I think stuff like Digby, and Chuck's lack of autopsy, I'm just going to have to think of in fairy tale terms and let it be. It's not like some of the science stuff on Eureka which, given the premise of the show if not the tone, is harder to ignore.

Maybe Ned was just avoiding touching Digby because resurrected dead dog just gave him the willies in general. Or perhaps it turns out that Digby had intimacy problems from when he was a mere pup....

Nice. and it's hard to beat Free (likely only for a few days).

I was wondering where all the SPN chat had gone- I totally missed that thread forming- thanks for the heads up tiggy!

Heh -- I was just thinking that I should dip my toe in the Supernatural thread tonight to see the reaction!

Also, I felt that I should mention here that Pushing Daisies is streaming over at the ABC website, so if you want to go give it five minutes and see what we're raving about, it's very conveniently available!

no problem, Colin. i figured as much.

Theo, are you already a SPN watcher or are you just thinking about drinking the kool-aid?

Oh, I've been drinking the Kool-aid from the beginning, but incest-fics squick me in the un-fun way, so I'm not wholeheartedly into it (not that you have to be, but it does keep me from getting way deep into it).

But I was already into Jensen Ackles back when I started watching Dark Angel season two and making sad little noises wishing other people would recognize his utter hotness, to just about no avail. I am pretty much the fandom anti-pusher.
