What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I think it's called something like 5ive minutes to Midnight.

Well, despite the fact that there was more slow-mo than in an episode of Angel, that wasn't so bad. I like that since the characters don't know they're in a sci-fi movie, they treat it like a hoax at first. I'm anxiously awaiting all the math and physics technobabble.

I enjoy all the "It was in the briefcase! And then it happened!" business. It's handled rather cleverly and not as anviliciously as on, say, Tru Calling.

There'd better be some repercussions from the fact that he saved the woman's life. I'm very interested in all the ways his trying to get to the bottom of his own murder ends up causing the murder.

The briefcase contents seem to be, according to Carl, a long time post-murder. The only person I can think of who could send it back would be Carl. My current random hypothesis is that Carl kills J.T. in order to keep the space/time continuum from going kerplooey, and then he's forced to send the briefcase back in time so that he's given the motivation to do it.

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

What is wrong with the Tok'ra outfits? I weep.

That having been said, Peter Wingfield should call me.

What is wrong with everyone's outfits? (Except for SG-1 themselves, anyway.) Evil costumers. Evil.

I gather I will have a Tanith episode on the Tivo for me when I get home.

I'm running through back issues. Not sure where this one was.

I don't mind the Jaffa stuff, except when it reallyREALLYreally looks like lightweight plastic. I don't mind any of the Earth clothes. Random aliens barely even ping my radar (except WHAT was Jonas wearing in the ep when he came back?). But The Tok'ra is some of the worst costuming ever, and I include TOS in that. It's random and crap.

Polter, his daughter could also send it back ...

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Dear god, woman, have you forgotten about the Daleks?

No. That's how much the Tok'ra make me sad.

There's a really really funny interview with Ben Browder posted over at WatchFarscape. No spoilers, and a lot of jokes about leather and body waxing. Funny, funny guy.

ita, yeah, I think I may be subscribing to that theory now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(Moving conversation from Movies)

In "Chricton Kicks," where do Chiana and Rygel come from? I thought he was hallucinating them until I read the back of the box, which says, "Reunited with former shipmates Chiana and Rygel." But where did they come from? And when? And how?
