'Safe'
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.
The close-ups of the scene were of their eyes and faces mostly, not the shiny gun and gun barrel, etc
Right, but, they were also just shooting the living daylights out of everything, without aiming or taking any precautions or even much of a formal stance. Compare to the target-practice scenes that you see in (American) TV series all the time... Which came first, Capt. Jack turning everything into sex, or sex turning everything towards Capt. Jack?
As these things go, not a bad dilemma to have.
I always stifle a laugh when capt Jack draws a gun, it's so....unnatural looking. Or reminds me a bit of Kirk fighting in Star Trek, I can't real explain it but over the top fakey I guess.
Not that I don't love Capt Jack but he's better at flirting than drawing a pistol.
TW 2.2:
Torchwood + Big Bad = Woo!
Torchwood:
Ianto Jones, v2.0: HILARIOUSLY BITCHY.
Solid plot too, I thought, with a good guest star. And arc-building for the season. I'm pleased.
Torchwood 2.2:
Oh, Ianto, how are you so awesome? Actually, they were all pretty awesome. The lead guest actor was really terrific, I thought. Too bad she had to die. Brave way to go, though.
I'm trying to figure out what the arm/sword reminded me of. I think it's something from Buffy.
CB radio! Loved that. Breaker, breaker.
OK, so last week's preview was from coming episodes, then. I was kind of wondering how they were going to cram all into one. And only the second one.
possibly Adam, Jen?
Torchwood 2.02 i'm loving Ianto version 2.0. i like my men with snark. "hello? anyone there? no, because the phones aren't working." hee!
Torchwood 2.2: You know, the more I think about it, the more I think it might be T2. Is there a scene in a kitchen where Robert Patrick has someone skewered against a wall with a sword/arm while he's talking on the phone? In my mind, I am seeing this. Though, sadly, that doesn't mean it's accurate.
Yes, the phone rant was awesome .
ETA: Thanks, tiggy.
TW 2.2. : yes!!! on the new Ianto. The show needs some serious snark.
I enjoyed this episode much more than last week's. The team seemed to pull together, and they were actually reasonably competent, which made a nice change. The excellent guest star (Nikka Amuka-Bird) also helped.
Oh, and I retract everything I said about Owen being exclusively hetero. "Let's all have sex!" indeed.
Jen, yep. you are remembering correctly! though i think it reminded me more of Adam.
Two brand new episodes of Chuck tonight? WTF?
