You know Sark was thinking "I fucked your wife, you know" as Vaughn backed him into the plane's bathroom and handcuffed him.

BTW, while Maayan is still off of Farscape, she's finishing up World Without Milk, which is her Farscape/Stargate crossover.

Oh, so, totally, Dana.

Oh, yeah, he was.

But I kinda think I know what you were thinking, too.

I should be ashamed at being predictable.

But I'm not.

I knew you'd say that, Dana.

You know Sark was thinking

you think that he'll give her up?

Nah, probably not. He's got too much invested in the whole thing. But I bet he'll enjoy the hell out of toying with the idea.

Catching up,

On Alias:

You know, the bartender guy in Wonderfalls kind of reminded me of Michael Vartan/Vaughn. Similar build, same pale oval face, woebegone pretty blue eyes, and the kicked-puppy expression. The type I alternatively want to shove off a bridge or take home and feed soup.

Vaughn's British accent was pretty bad. But better than whatever the hell accent Syd was trying on. Ye gods.

Ricky Gervais was the most interesting villain I've seen on the show since the early Sloan, and that was mainly because of the way Gervais underplayed the role. (And yes, I include Sark and Lauren there, who are pretty to be sure, but whom I find very cardboardy. Plus, they look like the same person with different genitalia, which I find kind of ishy.)

On Lunch:

Had crab cakes, which are currently sitting like pieces of rock in my stomach. Oy.

On Farscape;

Ken/Frank (but not in a slashy way) spoke for me earlier when he said;

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.

Yeah. That. I loved "Crichton Kicks" and "Promises" and "Unrealized Reality", and was massively disappointed when all the cool threads were dropped. Against fannish consensus, I disliked "John Quixote", which I found frenetic and kinda self-indulgent, without the emotional whammy packed into the similarly-structured "Won't Get Fooled Again". YJQMV.

The season-ender made me roll my eyes a lot, but I wasn't too bothered since I'd kind of lost most of my emotional investment by that time.

On Stargate:

You know, I have no idea why this show pings me fannishly while Farscape never has, even in the height of its power in seasons 2-3. It's a pretty good show, with lovable characters and frequently fun plots, but there ain't much in the way of character development, which was THE thing that attracted me to the early XF and Jossverse shows. I just... like the team. Not with feverish devotion other fans seem to love Spike/Lex/John/Scully, but with enormous, yet still laid-back kind of affection--in a way that is almost familial. I want them to be happy, in contrast to, say, what I feel for Wesley or Tom Quinn from MI-5, on whom I regularly wish almost fetishistic emotional suffering. It's weird.

I would write about why I am fannish about the things I'm fannish about in the way I am fannish about, except I can't sort it out in my brain as Katie has a while back. Huh.
