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 finally saw this week's SGA.
Is it me, or was that just deeply deeply stupid?
They had to bring back Lucius, who was so incredibly problematic on the first round (rapist, anyone?), and redeem the fucker, while making the villagers too stupid and sheeplike to live, and have Sheppard's team make a series of deeply dumb decisions (like not fighting the Genii). This is just... bah.
I'm resentful that they wrote out the single most interesting opponent the Atlanteans have by way of a cliche'd and predictable gunslinger confrontation.
Wow, I really disliked that a great deal.
Oh -- it was THAT episode this week? Ugh. I had actually *completely* forgotten that episode even existed. Hope I'll be able to forget it a second time.
I wish I could forget that episode. I hate Lucious. Partly because he is so very loathsome but also because I don't like the actor (or maybe I just don't like characters he's played in the past). But I kept flipping back and watching.
Kolya deserved a better episode. And a better death that was just a waste of an hour.
In my mind, his name is Unctuous instead of Lucius.
I think my Kolya is the one that M. wrote in Cowboy Days, who is complex and interesting, if still an asshole.
I found Doctor Who 3x5 to be
disappointing.
I really wish they would stop
throwing around the term "DNA" as if it were applied phlebotinum.
I want to like
Martha, but so far they haven't done much to define the character, except that she's Not!Rose.
And I really, really wish the Doctor would
stop approaching the Daleks unarmed without having a reason to believe that they won't shoot him.
The Doctor is supposed to
survive by his wits, not by dumb luck.
Where is the SPN Origins discussion going to be-- here, or Other Media?
Other Media, I think. That's what we did when there were Buffy comics at the same time as episodes.
(Personally, I've decided to eschew the comics, because extracanonical canon will always be problematic somewhere down the line; but that's ancillary to my reasoning on the location of discussion of it.)
I also figured it would be in Other Media, Lee. And I am so not eschewing them because of the... thing with the extra canon stuff.
