Farscape did so much better with that.
Did they get past three? Both the swearing and the time measurement on Farscape always bothered me, because they seemed straight search and replace jobs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Am I the only one who was really amused that John kept calling Ianto Eye Candy? Was he doing that before?

Over a dozen!
And each planet/culture had its own distinct associated curses, if I remember correctly. Crichton just picked whichever suited his mood at the time.

I've seen a couple of ads on BBCA for a show called "Primeval" - does anyone know anything about that show?
I've seen the first two episodes. They were not good; it's a very dull program. But Hannah Spearritt is hot!

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Did they get past three? Both the swearing and the time measurement on Farscape always bothered me, because they seemed straight search and replace jobs.
I just watched the last 8 episodes of season two and the first 2 episodes of season three, and somewhere in those special features were the curse words of Farscape. I didn't go through all of them, but it was interesting to see some defined as "mild" and some as "crude." And then spooky that it gets addressed here today.
Also Rygel (sp?) says "blue bitch" quite a bit talking about Zan (Xan ?).
eta: Also, I agree I am way over the use of "frak" on BSG. Especially by Kara. She wants to frak Sam. Get in line.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Was he doing that before?
Yeah, he called Ianto that in "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang." I, uh, may have watched that episode several times.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I was going to make my way here to ask the question and now I have the perfect excuse:
Did that seem "off" for Chiana to sleep with Dargo's son as the only way he wouldn't forgive her? I can see her picking a stranger, or even one of the crew, but Dargo had spent all that time, and a significant amount of that with her, searching the galaxy for his son. That seemed pointedly hurtful. As it was happening, I wasn't judging her so harshly because I thought it was a matter of getting carried away in the moment, but then she said it was engineered. Ouch.

I, um, may have watched it several times as well. But, my attention was perhaps diverted by the visuals.
