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 remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

That first one doesn't look a thing like Welling to me, and Ross is usually spot-on with the realistic portraiture. It looks more like Jack Dempsey as Superman.

I agree with ita though—Webster would make an excellent choice, and is Olivier in comparison to Welling. I'd rather see Cain back than have the latter's face blown up 60' high in closeup where the similarities with the Mt. Rushmore figures would be inescapable.

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

Actually, Farscape managed to hang on to a pretty good arc/standalone balance right up to the end, I think.

Pretty much, more so than Angel, I think. But the characters remember, and the characterization evolves over time (unlike, for instance, Stargate *g*).

Hey! Daniel's hair is much shorter than it used to be.

Thank god, or I'd never know what season it was.

... actually, even that doesn't help that much, just gives me a rough estimate of "early" or "late". ::shrugs::

Clearly the makeup & costuming people need to learn the fun of changing hairstyles to match the character's emotional states, like on Farscape. S2 Crazy!Hair, S4 Glamour Eyebrows, and so forth.

Yuh-huh. And Jack's is much grayer. They totally evolve. Sheesh.

Hey -- *that's* why Aeryn was an assassin -- she wanted to get revenge on the fool who got all day-spa on her eyebrows!

And Jack had that really hot period, S3-5!

To be fair, there has been some character development, particularly when it comes to Daniel. (Jack too, but as Jack's character development is at least somewhat tied to a decrease in IQ, I try to ignore it as much as possible.)

Yes! Which CJ must have been incredibly grateful for.
