Juliebird, how do you not have Jeremiah Crichton when you have the ones before and after that episode?
Confusing.

I have no idea, sumi. That puzzled me as well whem I was noting which ones I had. And some eps aren't in the right order as compared to the ep listing I dragged off a website (and I know that the DVDs that Netflix has are all turned about and backwards: 1&3, 2&4, etc.) Since this set was never completed, I don't know if JC ended up on another disc.

Consuela explained this for me back when I was Netflixing the Farscape DVDs - they are in production order for the first half of the S1 DVDs, not aired order, was the explanation. Why? I'm not sure.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
OMG, I finally watched the last TORCHWOOD and yeah, Bilis was totally like the First. Also agree the gianormous monster was kinda lame - Bilis was far, far creepier, but the actors pretty much all knocked it out of the park so I didn't care so much. Also, the shadow doing the killing was a nice twist over the usual stomping and chomping.
I finally realized why Bilis looked so familiar (other than looking like an even more emaciated Peter Cushing) - it was Murray Melvin who, despite making them in the early to mid 70's, didn't look a whole lot different in THE DEVILS and BARRY LYNDON. Either he looked old at a very young age, or he's aged amazingly well.

Is anyone else listening to the Razor podcasts? I love eavesdropping on the writers meetings like this.

I just saw an ad for "Showdown at Area 51", which will be SCI FI Saturday's movie on the 15th. There's no info on it at imdb; however, I saw an ad on Sci Fi and Gigi Edgely will be in it.
Tomorrow the movie is some kind of giant squid movie. I think.

Tin Man: The reconceptualizing is interesting, but some of the nudge-nudge-wink-wink we're-referencing-the-original dialogue was painful. Alan Cumming is being wasted, while Kathleen Robertson's boobs are putting in overtime (that shot of the flying monkees coming out of her cleavage was awesome).
I assumed the reason the flying monkeys came out of her cleavage was because having her pull them out of her ass would have been too obvious a commentary on the script.

I kinda felt let down with the episode. I thought Jewel did a good job as the Replicant and it was nice to see Weir, she was really strong, which sucks since that was the end.
But as soon as I saw the previews I thought of the SG1 episode where there were robots (some sort of construct) that thought they were the real SG1 and going on missions. Actually it felt like a cross between that episode and the one where Daniel (or was it Jack) wakes up "in the future" and the G'ould are lying to him.
Also knew the fake team was going to die, which killed any kind of suspense for the ending.
