Speaking of B5, I finally saw the real finale last night.

... can I say, "yawn"? Oy, with the endless leave-taking and the speechifying. Also, did Sheridan lose his memory at some point? Why didn't he remember what happened on his little time-trip to the future, and recognize what Londo was saying at dinner? Stupid.

I missed a couple of episodes, though: where did G'Kar go?

Hopefully not a spoiler. G'kar left to explore the universe with the red-head telepath chick whose name I've forgotten, cause his fanatical band of religious followers were getting on his nerves.

Regarding the season finale, I actually enjoyed quite a few of the bits where Sherdian wasn't talking. But it might be less painful for all concerned if we just pretend the last episode of the fourth season was the series finale.

New conjoined thread. Nice.

I'm a little late to the game, I know. I watch Smallville, though I missed quite a bit of the second season. It lost some of it's sparkly gay joy, imo. MR is still a joy to behold however. And I do like to look at TW.

I watched the original run of Due South back in the day, but by virtue of being about eleven, the HoYay completely passed me by. Some years later I came across the fic and realised just how blind I had been. BBC were repeating the RayK series for a while last year, but then stopped for no particular reason. Not before I'd witnessed the not-quite-sub-text with my own eyes though. It was a quality show, with much beyond the Big Gay Love to reccommend it.

Farscape I've never really watched. When I do catch episodes, I always make a note to watch it again, because it's really very good, and I enjoy it, but then the next episode I manage to catch bears absolutely no relation to what I remember having seen. Either I'm too dumb, or the show's too clever.

I am also very much with the DS9 love. Even moreso after seven long hard years of Voyager. I watched pretty much every episode and after the finale all I could say was "What the sweet fuck was that?" This is the reason I gave up on Enterprise after about three episodes.

The Sentinel I have seen only a few times, as it's only recently started airing over here. It's...not...good. Seven of Nine was in it today though. Sci-fi is so freaking incestuous sometimes.

I watched Highlander when it was on, but not religiously. Mostly because its scheduling was... eccentric, to say the least.

I also watch Stargate, and read fic in most of these fandoms.

And apparently I need to get out more.

Either I'm too dumb, or the show's too clever.

Not necessarily either, Jars. But the show is dense enough that if you're not watching episodes sequentially, you can feel really lost in a hurry.

Quite possible. I'm pretty sure that I know who most of the characters are, but whether they're good, bad, or another version of a character I thought I had down remains a mystery most of the time.

But it goes really well with the show! It's all about context!

Which is why I wished DS9 would have gone radically different with their theme music after the war started. B5 freaked me out when I realized the theme for the third season was the Requiem for the Line.

As for Enterprise, I like the theme song. On the show, it's fine. Hearing it in Walgreens at 3 am when you are drunk and shopping for Ben and Jerry's... NSM.

Pin, maybe being drunk in Walgreens is your main problem here.

Popping in to the new thread to say that I watch Smallville for the cheese factor, I watched Farscape(though I came in late. Sorry, I had been put off of it by the burbling raves of a friend of mine who also kept telling me Voyager's getting better. Riiight).

I've never seen Due South I wish it were available on DVD so I could Netflix it.(Did I just use Netflix as a verb? Eesh..)

Bwah! This reminds me that our town's first Super Wal-Mart, when it opened, had an announcement chime that sounded exactly like the hull breach alert on ST:TNG. Back in the early 90s (when I was even geekier than today) it was difficult to resist yelling that out when it sounded.

I was really mad when Terry Farrell left, especially the way they left the storyline. First I was mad at the writers--what!!! Marry them and then kill her off how cruel is that! But then I read about the contract disputes and that she'd wanted to leave for a long time (since the second season or something) and I was mad at her. Especially when she went to Becker.

I mean, I could understand if she was trying to leave the show for...I don't know...why was she trying to leave? But to turn around and go to Becker?
