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.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I was pleased to see that, like a normal (amply-bosomed) person, she tucked her hands around her bosom to go running down stairs.

LOVED that!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

What was evolution thinking?

It's a step up from cloacas?

I really feel for Olive, we've never seen Ned say explicitly he's not interested and I wonder if he's ever said that, or if he said it so many times he gave up.

He has kind of given Olive dubious or even disgusted looks when she's made her affections clear, though. I guess someone wacky in the throes of a huge crush could misinterpret those, but to the outside observer it doesn't look as if he finds her appealing even in the abstract. Kind of icky, in fact.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Given how emotionally limited Ned is, I can't imagine he ever tried to talk to Olive. Tried to avoid, unsuccessfully.

hip deep in pie

I liked this episode, the colors seemed less Technicolor vibrant than the last two, but that's okay.

After the second episode, budgets were cut on the episodes, so they'll probably be less visually sumptuous.

Thrive to spite them

It's too bad becuase the show looked amazing on HDTV and it would have been a great example as to why someone should make the plunge to High Def.

It's still a very pretty show though.

Matt, I think someone in the throes of a major crush could either mis read the signs or ignore them.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Poor Fay! I guess I won't mention that my family's dog when I was a small child was named Spunky, right?

Poor Emerson didn't even get to pawn any of the stolen objects. Although I suppose there were some that couldn't be matched up with the angry letters, so I'd like to believe he was rewarded, too.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I finally got to watch Pushing Daisies! I'm three episodes behind in discussion so I'm probably not the first to say: if they would lose the fairy-tale voice-over the show would be so much better.

Art Crawl!!!

Blood Ties: This week's episode (ep. 14) is up at itunes. . . shall check to see if it's up On Demand yet when I get home from work.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I really like the voice over. It's like another flavor of the Dukes of Hazzard voice over.

Maybe I'm not getting what the show is going for. I'm finding it very distracting. Of course I've only seen the one epsiode. Perhaps it'll grow on me.
