Just saw the Farscape "Back and Back and Back to the Future" and while it is a good episode, yeesh everyone was SOOOO right - that Jazz Dance fight scene was appalling. What were they thinking? That made late era Buffy fight scenes look like Jet Li or something. Gawdawful.
Also finally getting around to some of the bonus materials. It's a real trip to see or even just hear what Anthony Simcoe is really like. Watching him put on the D'Argo voice without the makeup was even funnier. NOTHING about him would ping D'Argo with me (though I'm sure his height in real life would be impressive) if I didn't know.
I loved hearing him talk (in his Australian accent) about how the D'argo voice is really just the Moviefone Guy voice. That killled me.

Bwahahahaha! Oh that's hysterical. Seriously, though, I don't know how he does it - not so much the change in accent, but whenever I try to talk for extended periods in a register so lower than mine my throat gets REALLY irritated. I suppose if you do it enough you must develop the muscles (or whatever).
I love his description of himself as a 6'6" tall geek with long blond hair. Although from photos I've seen he has cut the hair since.
I've never really watched Smallville before and I don't think tonight's early ep was the best place to start. (The one with the girl that drinks kryptonite ? shakes to lose weight.)
She just
ate a deer that she hit while driving in the rain.
EWWWWWW!
When I was interning for the Dept. of Environmental Conservation in New York, we had a whole set of rules about how you had to handle roadkilled deer, and whether you could take it home, or if you couldn't or didn't want to take it home which food banks/soup kitchens could take it... So I guess it's not that uncommon.
In Michigan it was accepted practice, or at least accepted urban legend.
It's always been the joke in Wisconsin that people unskilled with bow or gun use their cars to hunt deer. And well, at least by eating it so quickly she made sure that it wasn't left to suffer a slow death from its injuries. And she appeared to have made use of every edible bit of the deer.
I grew up in a family that collected deer that had been hit by a car. You needed to wait until the highway patrol came and called the game warden.
But I also grew up in a family that ate squirrel as a matter of course so take that fwiw.
I have eaten bear that was roadkill. Long story involving family friends, their organic farm, and a semi...and my mother lying to us kids about what we were eating.
