but neither do I daydream about the characters on the bus home.
Oh, I daydream. Just in different ways. Bad and wrong ways.
Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yes, but you're The Enabler. I'm just the Pusher.
I don't think I'll push Stargate, I'm not excited enough about it.
I sympathize with Nutty & ita's Farscape issues. But despite all the problems with Season 4, I still loved John Quixote and Unrealized Reality. (And I kinda love that DK blew them up in the end. It was so stupidly evil. But necessary to counter the shmoop, which had reached diabetic proportions.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I kinda love that DK blew them up in the end. It was so stupidly evil.
See, it just struck me as ... pointless. My caring-meter (I kept watching, because I figured it'd swing up again) went from 10 (of 100) down to -30.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
t Stands with ita and Nutty.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I sort of think that the Skittles treatment could have been hilarious and wrong, if it had been done in the teaser of an episode. As something in the tag (even of a not-season-ender), it was too obviously manipulative and therefore lame. There's hanging a lampshade on your mistakes, and then there's doing the funky chicken with the lampshade on your head.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
But despite all the problems with Season 4, I still loved John Quixote and Unrealized Reality.
Except for the rule in Unrealized Reality about "when you go through a wormhole, you jump into the 'you' of that time and place" being *immediately* violated in the very. next. episode.
That said, I liked a lot of S4, but it was my first season. So I had nothing to compare it against (other than the final four of S3, which were right up there with "Surprise"/"Innocence"/"Passion" in my pantheon of Fucking Amazing Teevee).

doubts that Nutty has ever seen the funky chicken performed since, despite its name, it is as elegant as a pavane

All is well that ends in pizza.
I had a Stargate thought last night. In fact I'm not sure why I didn't make the connection before.
Completely unspoiled, except for the news of the second Stargate Live action series.
They've been looking for the Lost City of the Ancients.
The name of the new series will be Stargate: Atlantis.
t D'oh!
Suddenly I know where they will find it.

Late to the convo, but Stargate=good, juicy, yummy, must-have hamburger is perfect. But no avocado, because, ewww. I'm down with bacon, jack, mushrooms, though. Mmmmmmm.
While the Chris Judge video diary on the S5 DVDs was fab, the Michael Shanks video diary is just kinda silly/goofy ... he runs around the set shooting random things and people. I mean, it's fine if you're getting the DVD anyway, but not like the CJ one, which is worth Netflixing even if you don't necessarily want to see the eps again (although ... Wormhole X-treme. IJS).
