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.
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).

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.

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.
Looks like them Duke boys got themselves a mess of trouble.
Just got to see last night's PD.
Did anyone else find the sword fight delightfully Princess Bride-ish?
Did you notice the Star Warish music during the sequence?
Aside from needing an on-set fight choreographer (they had one for
Malcolm in the Middle!
), it was quite nice.

One of the krav guys did that for the Scrubs swordfight. I'm kinda assuming there was just the one. [eta: Scrubs swordfight, I mean]
Aside from needing an on-set fight choreographer
seriously - any show with a good fight could use one, especially after certain scenes from certain movies (Serenity) & shows have shown again and again that this approach just kicks ass. makes it more watchable - and, Kat - TPB had one too. dance and fight. not to mention, an albino, under a wheelbarrow
