That is one ouchy story

No question. But now I know who Adrian Conrad is, and Simmons, and so forth.

Do they resolve in canon this issue with the symbiote that inhabits Conrad? How long ago was this, anyway? All the Monday night episodes are out of order so I have no idea even what season anything was.

Which would really lessen the impact for me. Maybe my Lana irritation and paranoia has reached irrational levels.

I see these words, but they don't make sense together. There can't be "irrational levels" of Lana irritation. Every time she appears on screen, the scene dies.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

it still hurts like a son-of-a-bitch. That is one ouchy story.

It really does, but it hurts so good.

One of the things I loved best about Farscape was the episode titles. So creative.

Thrive to spite them

I finally watched the finale for SG-1.

It took me long enough. I enjoyed it. Kinnesy is so smarmy I want to send him through the wormhole to one of the Gou'ald strong holds and let him see what it's really like. Just let him get tortured a whole bunch.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Yeah, they resolve it in S6. Desperate Measures is, um, four? Five? 2001 was on last night, and I know that's fifth season, so that would mean the entire 7-11 block was S5.

I adore Wormhole X-Treme. There are some factions of the fandom who get all pissy about it, because the Hundredth Episode Should Be A Tribute! To The Team! It makes me die laughing every time, though. "Bigger!"

It sure does seem to be the case. I've only started watching Smallville this season, so I've been trying to give her the benefit of the doubt, but now I've actually seen all of Season 1 and part of Season 2 and she's still just awful.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

I'm skipping to the end of the thread since I'm completely unspoiled for Farscape. I was browsing Netflix and was thinking about putting season one in my queue, but then I looked at the listing and it's all crazy and stuff! On the first DVD, it's episode 1 and 7! Huh? What? Why? Then it's 2 and 4, 3 and 6, etc. Did the people putting the set together not know how to count? Did they think it would be more fun in random order? Can I watch it in this seemingly random order and still enjoy/understand it?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's something funky about the production order, Rayne.

Rayne, hang on a sec, and I will link you to a couple of useful posts. I had exactly the same reaction you did when I added it to my queue ...

I'm actually getting my first Netflixed Farscape DVD this week at some point.

Season 1 is fine in the dvd order. The only problem with the dvds is the end of season 2, where for some unknown reason they put the season-ending cliffhanger in FRONT OF the three-parter that preceded it. Made no sense.
