Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.  

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 do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

the problem with the head coming through? it fucks with Terminator mythology. it's been established that metal parts can't travel with their "time machine". they had to put living tissue over the metal in order to send them back through time. well...that and make them look more human. so that bugs.

i'm also not thrilled with Lena as Sarah. she's still trying to hard to be Linda's Sarah.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Hmm. Were gonna need a new thread, soon.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I had problems with Lena initially, but I like her now.

I feel very behind the times, only having just seen Torchwood 2.02 (right?), but WOW did Ianto get all the good lines this ep! Almost too many, as he went from geeky-kind-of-shy to snarky-confident very quickly, but I love it. "Because I know everything. Also, it's written at the bottom of the screen."

Was the younger FBI guy played by the same actor who played Cyborg on Smallviille?

It was fun seeing Garrett Dillahunt play that ordinary non-evil guy - before we saw him being a terminator.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I handwaved and figured the skull had tissue on it when it entered the time-sphere thing. But now that I think about it, didn't Sarah's weapon blow all the skin off Chrome Arty before his skull entered the time-sphere?

OK, maybe the Windows-based time-machines required there to be living tissue surrounding everything, but the time machine in the bank was obviously Unix?

Art Crawl!!!

See, I didn't think that the skull had come through a time-vortex at all. I figured that it had been buried in the rubble and that it had survived underground until it had been dug up.

Clearly, I am confused.
