Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

As I understand it, Fran Buller's so sweet you can't even hate her for landing the guy, either.

No fair.

No, you can't. She's marvelous, loves him to death, loves John Crichton too, and when he's out of town and she misses him? She watches the dvds of the show.

JenP, what problem are you having with the dvds? If you're having viewing-order problems, stop by The Snurcher's Guide for help. Season 1 should be viewed in production order, Season 2 in broadcast order. After that, the orders are the same.

They should have dozens of babies to get his genes out into the general populace as much as possible.

Art Crawl!!!

The Farscape dvds are sorted film-date order not air-date order -- they would shoot two episodes by the same director as once and then they would air in other orders.

I don't understand why they chose to package the dvds like that . . .it's as if they forgot that there is arciness. . . you know?

No, you can't. She's marvelous.

I concur with Consuela. There are many good reasons why Ben Browder is madly in love with her. I hadn't seen her speak before, and by the time she was done walking about the stage in her bare feet, I had a mad crush on her, myself.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I watched Phases today which was followed by an add for Smallville: The Beginnings. the line: When did Lex's obssession with Clark begin? I thought the WB was in denial about what the show is about...

They refuse to admit that's two wuv -- but they will admit to obsession.

I think plausible deniability ended about the time we saw Lex get all Bluebeard-y with his beardfiance about a room wallpapered in humongous photos of Clark.

Yeah, this is what I was wondering.

what problem are you having with the dvds? If you're having viewing-order problems, stop by The Snurcher's Guide for help.

Thanks for the link (ETA: and the viewing order advice); I'll check it out. It's not a problem so much as confusion about why they'd package DVDs out of viewing order (assuming broadcast order is the order in which the stories play out. Which, hey, after Fox's treatment of Firefly, I really shouldn't assume anymore). Basically, I was having a pissy rant because I wanted more eps on each DVD and in order since I can only get three at a time via my Netflix plan. You know, whining because they're making me do figuring and such.

Edited to remove an odd metaphor.
