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.
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).
As something in the tag (even of a not-season-ender), it was too obviously manipulative and therefore lame.
This was my problem, although my overall problems with season 4 seem to be less than ita/Nutty/DX (waves at the New Englanders) have had. Mostly, there seemed to be a lot of stuff set up (Tormented! Space! / Aeryn's mysterious side career / Scorpy on Moya / even Granny) that NEVER paid off in any satisfying way, despite loads of potential.
But the very end? So lame. "Let's bring in some brand new aliens in the last minute to 'kill' them." If it had at least been Scorpy or SOMEBODY we had a prior investment in, it wouldn't have been nearly as bad. Even one of Stark's clones would have been more satifying (can't remember if there were any left).
Speaking of lost:
Antarctica "lost world" found.
"Wonder if they have a Stuckeys?" Tim M. about Sedna
eta: Or Sleestack?
Actually, I canna remember -- was there *any* point to bringing Stark back?

None whatsoever.
By the time Bad Timing rolled around, I was so disenchanted with the season that I sat there just waiting for DK to drop in something utterly insanely bizarre. So when they got zapped into jujubes, I just laughed and laughed.

I keep getting confused, because I think that you are referring to Sark (no T) on Alias. And if anybody saw it on Sunday, how hot was Vaughn with the accent? (fans self)

3rd season, he had news about Jofee to bring to D'Argo. 4th season, not really. He was kind of useful as the antagonist in John Quixote, but he wasn't REALLY there, either. I still don't understand exactly what he was doing there in "We're So Screwed".
Although, now that I think about it, was the ever any point to Stark in the first place?
Poor Paul Goddard - I don't think he's a terrible actor, but they gave him exactly one note to play, and it wasn't an interesting one.

That's the appearance I meant.

My side, your side, my side, your side....
That's the appearance I meant.
And why were there clones of him torturing people?
There's at least one episode of the three parts I watched twice because I thought I had been too drunk the first time I saw it to follow the story. Turns out I wasn't.
