'Objects In Space'


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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

do you feel old?

Yes, but only in an I-can't-believe-it's-been-20-years way. I still feel physically young and I still regularly get excited by a new song or a new sound.

Thrive to spite them

Last night I watched the end of disc 4 of Sports Night. I was only going to watch the last half of Sam's first episode and the next episode and then do something else.

But I couldn't stop watching, I was so compelled to watch them. I have to wait until Netflix sends me the rest. I'm buying the dvds as soon as I can.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Vonnie! That two-part Garak and Odo episode is on *right now*.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I know! I couldn't wait so I Netflixed the eps, but I'm also recording them with TiVo so that I could save them for posterity.

I think this two parter may be my favorite DS9 episodes thus far, over even "Duet" and "Necessary Evil". What complex, wonderful, flawed characters. I damn near cried at the end of "The Die Is Cast".

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I love love love the relationship between Garak and Odo. Paid attention to some of the directing choices too. Some of them were too flashy, I thought, but some of them were really nice, especially the last scene in Garak's shop.

Vonnie, if you love Garak, I'd recommend A Stitch in Time, if I haven't already. Andrew Robinson actually wrote it (at least there's no obvious ghostwriter), and it's a great backstory for the character.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

FWIW, I've heard that it indeed is Robinson solo on that book.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Robinson has also written a Garak story in "Prophecy and Change", a recent DS9 anthology. I think there was mention of a play as well...

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

I don't want a stargate in my fridge, but I wouldn't mind one in my garage.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I don't want a stargate in my fridge, but I wouldn't mind one in my garage.

Having a Sam I Am moment with ita's sentence.

I do not want one in my fridge,
I do not want one off a bridge,
I do not want one in a lake,
I do not want one near a snake,
I do not want one in my car,
I do not want one in a bar.
I wouldn't mind one in my garage,
But wouldn't know where to park my dodge.
I do so want one, it's just hard...
To hide a Stargate in my backyard.

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

I don't want a stargate in my fridge, but I wouldn't mind one in my garage.

Now I'm picturing an "ice planet" with all these little teeny piles of people's freezer contents... talk about storage space!
