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 saw the Torchwood - was it cut up alot? Life on Mars is getting a "director's cut" on demand. . . I wonder if they'll do that with Torchwood?
ION - TVshowsondvd have pictures of the menus for the season 3 bsg dvds.
(Did I do that? I am going too quickly from posting on boards to email and vice-versa.)
Anyway, thoroughly enjoyed season 1.1 and hoping it comes up On Demand soon so I can tape it and watch and rewatch.
IO.O.N., finished up the Farscape rewatch with the new convert. so sad. Peacekeeper Wars this time around you could pull out what might have been indivual episodes from what was shown . . .and why, oh why, didn't they use the real Farscape music? (Why didn't it hit me so much 1st time around?)
Also, a scratched season 1 starburst collection went for (I think) $176.00 on ebay this weekend and people are paying comparable amounts for the glitched 2 disk versions. Craxy.
I'd be very interested to see an ep based on background for Ianto, Also background eps for Owen and Tosh.
I'm surprised nobody caught John's follow-up to "That's a poodle" -- "That's Niiiiiiiiiiice."
And "Greg" (that was John's departing word, yes?) is obviously setting up the season's arc. Which equally obviously will involve Jack's mysterious past.
Greg or Grey - I wasn't so sure.
There's going to be a Ianto episode? Cool.
I don't know whether there will be one. But if there is, I'll look forward to it.
Fay, you are right. I was confusing two characters.
I think it is the intent of the writers is that Jack is a really bad manager, at least in a conventional sense. He was a rogue - well, no need to mention to be on the safe side, but a guy who didn't take orders all that well, ultra-competent, but also ultra-independent, and never big with following rules. And even though he knows better, I think a big part of him expects that from anyone who works for him. "Rules are rules" is expressing an aspiration, something he know he should live up to as the man in charge. It is not something he is personally capable of living by. This applies to many of his other principles too; a lot of them are not his principles, but principles he thinks he should have.

Interesting. Well meaning but flawed nobility. I can see that.
I thought it was Graham. Really, I have no idea what it was, but I thought I'd throw in that possibility.
Also, could have been "Greg" with an accent.
looked like a smaller hand holding a larger one in the flashback - which I'm not sure I want...
I kind of like the flawed leader thing - but it could get old. Gwen's meaningful looks are not growing on me. Well, sorta off and on.
Ianto was very funny. also, the fight scene? loved the way they handled that. could have done without the commercial commentary, though.
