Book ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Pushing Daisies is clearly going to be this season's show where I do not get the overwhelming love. I tivo'd the repeat of the pilot after people said such good things about it, and I only got 15 minutes in before the twee narration pushed me beyond endurance.
A lot of us feel like it goes into twee, through twee and out the other side.....
tavella,
I totally see where you are coming from. For some reason, I'm really into the twee 90% of the time. I think you would have died with the musical sequence, "Hopelessly Devoted to you." I sprained my eyeballs rolling them during those few minutes, but by and large, I really dig the show.
I don't think twee bothers me. What else is twee?
i'm with you, tavella, but somehow, the twee hasn't pushed me over the edge yet. It bothers me a little more each time, though, so they need to tone it down.
What else is twee?
Spwuce? Wedwood?
Oh, minus FIVE MILLION POINTS, Mr. DX. You are on pun notice.
Where(ish) are you in/near Piladelphia? I'm about 45 min. south in Del.
Chestnut Hill - about 20 minutes outside of the city. Where in DE?
Spwuce? Wedwood?

re the BSG movie from the Trib blog:
Admission is free, but those who want to see “Razor” at a movie theater must first register at the site battlestarevent.com. The site will not go live until Friday. Repeat: The site will not go live until Friday. Seat registrations will be given away first-come, first-serve.
Newark, though not in the town proper. We're only about an hour apart.
Heh, "Repeat: The site will not go live until Friday." They're expecting a crowd, eh?
It's a shame, because I could see flashes of potential in the bit I watched -- the bit where they didn't disguise the extreme height difference between Chenowith and Ned's actor but exaggerated it and had her pointedly leap up on a table to face him was self-aware television, the good way -- but no amount of that could make up for the buzz saw annoyance of that narration. That constant, constant, "We are so cute and self-affectedly fairytalish don't you LOVE US" narration.
