Conditioning from years of my favorite shows and writers makes me fear for Ianto's life if I swoon too much for the cutiehead date talk.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

I'm puzzled by the fact that I don't find Ianto that appealing, but Gareth David-Lloyd in out-of-character interviews is smoking hot.

Oh, Ianto.

My criticism of the Spikelikeness of JM's character was mostly about the writing, and not so much in the way it was played. There's referencing, and there's overdoing it. But I seem to be in the minority, which is fair enough.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
No touchy MY IANTO.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I was thinking about the episode all night, and thought, I should come in this morning and expand on my first comments. Forgetting that my first comments were just, "Ianto."
But now that I'm here, that's still pretty much all I'm thinking.
Also, Cap'n John is made of hot. I'm sure I'll have more later, when the guh wears off.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Julie, it's a Buffista-ism, from a year or two ago. Stepping in the social guacamole and getting it all over yourself and others. Or, if you will, fucking up and offending people. Usually in reference to new people who do not know the ways of the board.

Ah, and now your previous post makes total sense! No guac here. Only jalapenos on sticks.

OK, the password thing was awesome. John=adorable.
Er, except when he's being all, you know... about Teyla and the pregnancy and all.
But the password bit was adorable.
ETA: OK, much of this ep has me rolling my eyeballs. But. I'm actually finding the Ronon/Dr. Whoever scenes kind of engaging. The actors are really selling it. See, but I'd be happier if they had stopped it before they were heading into smoochies. The head on the shoulder thing was cute - they should have stopped it there.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yes, cute with the password, but then he justmisses quoting HGTTG right.
The show really felt rather domestic, with the baby, and the engagement thing.
I really liked Ronon and Jaws. And Ronon and Keller (although also adds to the domesticity)
Nice ensemble ep, though, even if the suspense, well, wasn't.
