Buffy ,'Dirty Girls'
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.
Jessica, I'm with you on the whales. I kinda went to a Monica Reyes place and then I zoned out. Plus way too much Teyla for me. At best she bores me.
Uh, DC? I didn't know there was supposed to be mention of Cap'n Jack coming up. Is that a widely known thing?
Cripes! I have to make it through all of Angel before my completist friend will let us start on Eureka. Gotta be done by July.
SPN: Director's Cuts are up over at the CW Video page.
Okay in this week's episode when Dean, Sam and the writer were in the cabin set Dean says something that totally sounded like a quote: did you guys recognize what it was from? Because I didn't except that it sounded like something we were supposed to get.
Atlantis (or Lantea, whateverthefuck they call the Lantean homeworld) is really a deathtrap of a place anyway. Killer hurricanes every 10,000 years, killer sunspots every 15,000. I have no trouble handling psychic whales. (A BABY WHALE FRIEND. NAMED SAM.)
Smallville: Lynda Carter looked great. Why would Lex use all his resources to make Lana think she was pregnant? That was idiotic. And I wish that we would learn what, if anything, Chloe's meteor-rock power is. Also, the preview makes it look like it's ALL Clark/Lex so I am looking forward to it.
is it just my computer or is that first Director's Cut audio really hard to hear?
sumi, do you mean when Dean says, "come to the coast. we'll get together, have a few laughs"? it's a quote from Bruce Willis' character in Die Hard, if that's what it is.
Yes -- thank you!
Blood Ties: how the heck is the priest alive for 400 years? Is he actually a vampire too?
So, I'm watching Cold Squad today. Tohmah whathisname, Helo on BSG plays a beat cop. His partner, at least in this episode is the actor who plays the Scottish doctor on SG-A. On Cold Squad he has a very Canadian accent, on SG-A it is Scottish. So I'm wondering, does anyone know which is his real accent?
I know that his accent on SGA is not his normal way of speaking. I think maybe his folks are from Scotland? I think he's Canadian. Maybe.

From IMDB:
The sixth of seven children, Paul's family emigrated to Canada from Paisley, Scotland when he was just 2 years old. He returned to Scotland during his early teens for a few years before heading back to Canada . Paul has a degree in Teaching and while studying at University, got involved in various sports including becoming a freestyle wrestling champion. After graduating the actor began his career teaching theatre in Toronto, squeezing in time to attend auditions, finally making the move to Vancouver.
I think maybe his folks are from Scotland? I think he's Canadian. Maybe.
AFAIK, both things are true. (His parents are definitely Scottish, I don't remember if he's Canadian.) At panels, he slips in and out of the Scottish accent without missing a beat, which is both cool and a little freaky.
He talked about that at DragonCon. He has a Canadian accent, but his parents are Scottish.
