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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
I didn't even know
Dukes of Hazzard
had voiceover.
But I do, for the most part, quite enjoy the PD voiceover because, like everything else about this show, it's just so...different from everything else on television. None of the characters are narrating. We just get an omniscient storyteller, and I love a good yarn. Little bits like "The way it happened was this" just amuse me.
It doesn't look like they're losing the years-months-weeks-hours business, so I'm trying to live with it. There are a couple times this week where I thought it was nice and appropriate (like, for instance, right before the grave robber died, it's a nice touch to sum up his entire life so far in those terms).
I didn't even know Dukes of Hazzard had voiceover.
Voiced by Waylon Jennings, even.
It reminds me a bit of Desperate Housewives. Although that narrator wasn't divorced from the action, she was now omniscient.
Voiced by Waylon Jennings, even.
Who also sang the theme.
But yeah, it's very much in the "Once upon a time in Hazzard County there was a family of bootleggers..." vein.
