'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'


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.

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Anyone who caught the BSG preview during Flash Gordon, when during the hour did it air?

All is well that ends in pizza.

t Hums

Oh I could throw you in the lake
Or feed you poisoned birthday cake
I wont deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Oh I could bury you alive
But you might crawl out with a knife
And kill me when I'm sleeping
That's why

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

Art Crawl!!!

It aired about half past the hour.

And yes, that was the first flashback. My goodness that looked like a six with Bill. . .but it wasn't. . . was it?

I loved the idea of everyone on earth thinking "The Doctor" but I didn't really like the glowy floaty Doctor very much. Although I loved the very aged shrunken Doctor.

Hee. Jack is the Face of Boe. So funny.

Also, red-shirt Tom was very pretty.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Also, red-shirt Tom was very pretty.

was there a scene where Martha looks him up at the end? Did I imagine that, or was that cut from this U.S. version? I might have stepped out of the room and missed it. Or maybe that's a memory based on a what-if conversation?

It wasn't in the US version.

Oh, phooey. But I'm glad it wasn't another symptom of my insanity.

I wonder what else was cut?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

When Mrs Saxon visits the Master's grave at the end, was there a hint that he was regenerating after all?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

That's what I assumed, Typo Boy. Like maybe somehow he had put himself in the ring, or something.

Good finale. Things like the floaty Doctor are what remind me that it's a kids' show.

Dear Lord, the Face of Bo(e). Wonder how long they had *that* planned. That's going to require some rewatching, for sure.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

We only saw a feminine hand pick up a ring and heard and echo of maniacal laughter, as I recall.

why do they repeat Flash and Stargate but not Dr Who? So unfair!
