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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I don't think I watch a single CBS show. Unless the NFL counts. I've got multiples on the other 3, and Reaper on CW.

Thrive to spite them

CBS is the channel I watch the most -- NCIS, Criminal Minds, Cold Case, Survivor, HIMYM, and Amazing Race when it comes on later.

CW - Reaper and Supernatural

NBC - Life and Chuck

ABC - Pushing Daises

Fox - Bones

Sci Fi - SGA and Odyessy 5

BBCA- Torchwood and Ultimate Force.

I actually end up watching most of these on tape delay.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Hmmm. With "Heroes" and "Scrubs" on NBC, and "Pushing Daisies" on ABC, this is the most actual network TV I've ever watched.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I don't think I watch anything on CBS, though G watches CSI and Numb3rs.

For me:

ABC: Pushing Daisies(and Lost, when it comes back)

NBC: Heroes and Law & Order: SVU.(original recipe Law and Order when it comes back)

Fox: Bones

CW: Reaper and Smallville(also Legion of Superheroes on Saturday mornings)

USA: Law and Order: Criminal Intent

Sci-Fi: Stargate:Atlantis

Lifetime: Blood Ties

Why, yes, I do watch a lot of tv, mostly on tape delay.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

I just took the quiz, and ended up with a lot of ties. They placed me on Babylon 5 (which I never watched, because it never pinged on my conciousness until partway through and a friend told me I needed to watch it from the beginning, and I just never got around to it). Anyway, my top results looked like so:

75% Babylon 5 (Babylon 5)

75% Moya (Farscape)

75% Deep Space 9 (Star Trek)

69% Serenity (Firefly)

69% Heart of Gold (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)

69% Millenium Falcon (Star Wars)

69% Galactica (Battlestar: Galactica)

63% Andromeda Ascendant (Andromeda)

The tie-breaking questions (I forget the exact wording, but essentially it was 'which is the most true') -- a) always question your government, b) you would do something completely evil if it meant saving thousands of lives, and c) being with escaped prisoners would be fine as long as they're trustworthy -- have me trying to figure out which questions apply to which shows. I can assume the escaped prisoners apply to Moya. I'm not sure about the "completely evil" part. And I think pretty much every SF show questions the government, that's just part of the canon.

Our wings are not tired.

I watch the CBS Sunday Morning show. It is one of my few routines.

NBC gets me for Heroes, ABC for Lost, FOX for House. SciFi for lots of stuff if I can. Not much happens real time anymore.

Tuesday: Reaper on CW, Nip/Tuck on FX starting this month.
Wednesday: Pushing Daisies on ABC.
Thursday: Supernatural on CW, Scrubs on NBC later this month.
Friday: Stargate: Atlantis on SciFi.
Saturday: Torchwood on BBC America.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

CBS - I'm pretty heavy on. CSI, CSI:NY, Criminal Minds, Numb3rs (you see a trend here?), Without a Trace.

NBC - Heroes, Journeyman, Life (so far)

ABC - DSM, Pushing Daisies

Fox - House, Reaper (so far)

CW- Supernatural

OK, there's something still not clicking about Journeyman for me, but the opening scenes with the (I'm assuming) publisher and editor going on about buyouts and cutbacks?

I'm impressed. They pretty much nailed what's really going on.

Hrm. OK. I take that back. Now I just got much more interested in this episode.

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

Which sci-fi crew would you best fit in with? You scored as a Moya (Farscape) You are surrounded by muppets. But that is okay because they are your friends and have shown many times that they can be trusted. Now if only you could stop being bothered about wormholes. Moya (Farscape) 81% Serenity (Firefly)75% Nebuchadnezzar (The Matrix)69% Babylon 5 (Babylon 5)69% Galactica (Battlestar: Galactica)69% Deep Space Nine (Star Trek)56% SG-1 (Stargate)56% Heart of Gold (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)50% Bebop (Cowboy Bebop)50% FBI's X-Files Division (The X-Files)50% Millennium Falcon (Star Wars)44% Enterprise D (Star Trek)38% Andromeda Ascendant (Andromeda)31%

And I have watched every single one of these shows and imagined myself as part of the crews! Ha!
