I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Boxed Set, Vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Another DLM watcher here, though the addition of Daisy O'Dare, the sporadic subtraction of Roxy, and the wimping out on the affair subplot George's dad was supposed to have are all conspiring against my enjoyment.

Yes. What Matt said.

But I'm still watching it, though wouldn't get Showtime for it (luckily, I have a friend who has the Dish...)

All the DS9 talk is making me nostalgic...and I agree, though I was more a TNG fan back in the day (OK, when I was 14!), I'd sooner rewatch DS9 eps...

All is well that ends in pizza.

Enterprise is a very bad show, but nothing on it is quite so bad as the AWFUL AWFUL REALLY BAD STUPID SONG!!!!!

I saw on the bittorrent site supr nova that they had tonight's Enterprise S3 premiere, and in the music area, they had a 2 mb download of "Enterprise Season 3 theme."

I ignored it at the time, but now I wonder...did they change it?

And Yes, on Stargate's theme. I can pull it up in my memory quite readily and I'm listening to it now, AIFG.

Enterprise theme? Bryan Adams singing Rod Stewart as an 80's ballad.

I'm old school. Like Happy Shopper.

happy phantom, some of us are under the sway of the subversive lure of Michael Rosenbaum, rather than the hypnotic glare of Tom Welling's orthodontic work.

At the moment, I can see why people would find MR attractive, he just doesn't do it for me. I have a feeling he may be one of those people you have to see in action (so to speak!) to fall for, and that would involve watching more Smallville, which I'm not certain I'm prepared to do just yet. Though if the new season of genre programming is as dire as it seems, I may just eat my words!

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Someone on WX said that the theme had been changed.

"I can not use contractions such as 'can't' ." and Worf just repeating "Can not say can't" over and over going insane trying to figure the logic in it.

Is that a riff on an original Star Trek ep? Where they wig out an evil I'm-going-to-keep-you-here-forever droid when Kirk says "Everything I say is a lie" or some such? And the droid goes into sputter/smoke mode trying to logic it out? With the Harry Mudd character in the ep? Yes, I think so. I am such a huge Trek geek that I scare me. What can I say? I started watching the original when it was in syndication practically before I could talk. All my sisters' fault. God bless 'em. I have huge original Trek love, too.

And Yes, on Stargate's theme. I can pull it up in my memory quite readily and I'm listening to it now, AIFG.

I forgot to wrod this earlier. As soon as I read that, the Stargate theme popped into my head, and you are so right. It's excellent and anticipation-making music.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I also thought the Two-Two-Two Rikers in One! Storyline was kind of stupid. I didn't get how he was supposed to survive down there for a long time, it didn't seem to me like there was a really good food source. Plus it just seemed like a way to give Troi more conflict and she needed less personal conflict and more actual professional work to do on the bridge.

Something else that ended up working better on DS9 (the 2nd Riker, I mean).

One can only hope, and now I'ma have to tune in tonight to check. (And then flip to something else when the credits are over)

It's pretty much impossible to hum both the point and and the counterpoint at any given moment in the music, but that never stops me from trying whenever I hum it out loud.

Thrive to spite them

Suddenly I'm drawing a blank on the SG theme song, which means I'll have to watch an episode when I get home.

Although I agree that DS9 actually did something interesting with Tom Riker. Did he ever come back? Last I recall he was imprisoned by the ... Cardassians? Dominion? Someone...
