I keep having this conversation with my mother:
Have you seen that promo for Coupling? With the rotating bed thing?
We're deep in space, corner of No and Where.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's fun, isn't it?
Let's just say, Colin's no Kerr Smith.

I'm still puzzling over that promo. Not that I'm ungrateful, mind you, but have I been such a hermit that I've missed footage of men in bed together going from a network executive's worst nightmare to a workable selling point for a show?

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
Whoa. I wish I'd seen Summit pt 2 (Last Stand?) with "Proving Ground" in mind. Also, after the one where Martouf died.
Huh. Why?
(Oh, and Emily: Yes, goes undercover, but there's an incredibly unfortunate outfit involved. On the plus side, he and Jacob have good snark.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

But a Very Good Thing.

Because (look away, Emily), Martouf's symbiote goes into the lead student from Proving Ground, and then they both die.

So, watching the SciFi channel (from which Sentinel seems to have disappeared) and find it very disconcerting to see Steve from Coupling doing the heavy-brow Untangling a Mystery look.

Oh, is Ultraviolet showing? That was my first exposure to Jack Davenport.

Oh! Right, of course. Yeah, that's one of the times that they actually build on previous episodes.
Poor Lantash. Seriously, never admit you've got the hots for Carter. It's just not safe.

They do that a lot, don't they? Teal'c got stuck in 48 Hours because he was busy finishing Tanith, 2001 follows on 2010, Absolute Power gets referred back to ... off the top of my head.
In fact, I'd say they do it a lot, without really having arcs.
Which I adore. Any Goa'uld, any doo-hickey (they also re-use the drug that was making SG1 thing there was a Lieutenant Tyler) is fair game for three years from now.
