'Out Of Gas'


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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Why should we give our hearts to a show that seems to fear sincerity so much that it shrouds itself in artifice? Pushing Daisies has the potential to be a luscious homemade apple pie, but it would rather be a Twinkie.

Yeah, I'm with you, Frank. I think that's not the show she's describing there, but the character of Ned, who is afraid of deeper feelings.

not your mom's socks.

But Pushing Daisies is too compulsively ironic to take anything very seriously.

um. did she miss Fairy-Tales 101? Serious topics administered via candy coating. duh. Plus - Fun! Irony! Sarcasm! Wit!

Think she watched the trailers and did the review from that?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I want the dress Chuck was wearing in the first part of the show, the green one. Also a body that would look good in it. sigh.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Loved last night's PD. Want to marry it and have little half-human-half-PD babies.

They finally got Olive to a point where I'm able to enjoy her as a character and not just as a Kristen Chenoweth performance. They brought both the spooky and the absurd to pitch-perfect levels.

"Coming up next...kittens on parade" = LOVE.

"I love you, shovel" = LOVE.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

God, you've got me liking this show and I've never even seen it.

!!!

Meanwhile - where are people discussing Dollhouse?

I poked my head into the SPN thread, but didn't see any discussion about the TWOP recap that's got some people on LJ upset.

Details here.

I am...not very sympathetic to the TWOP admin response. I don't quite see how referring to a character as "The Fucking Unbearable Wop" is a valid method of textual criticism.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

OMG, Dana. I don't know that anyone who frequents the SPN thread really reads the TWOP. I can tell you I'm probably not going to anymore.

Art Crawl!!!

I'm stunned that nobody has said anything about it in the Sin City thread. (Or maybe they did and I missed it.)

Our wings are not tired.

Eeep, Dana. Hugs Buffistas tight.

Also, bless all of you for making me watch PD! I am jumping up and down on my bed sharin' the love. So entertaining.
