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'd give eyeteeth to see the entire team, including Jack, in an off-world mission somewhere

Okay, I'm halfway through Atlantis and I've decided it's four different A Human Reactions.

Oh, and Sheppard is such a boy. Pinball! Johnny Cash poster! Lava lamps! Gah. Why am I watching this show again?

Not to mention, why hasn't anyone asked what happened to Jack? Did they all forget that O'Neill is running the SGC? Also, Hammond only has two stars -- isn't he a Lt. General by now?

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

I do miss the SG1.

Halfway through Atlantis, I'm struck by the short shrift given the Summer kid, and the creepiness of having Hammond there.

Otherwise -- whatev.

Smallville thing -- now that Pete's gone (he's gone, gone, right?) Clark doesn't have any peers who know his deal, does he? Do you think this will have ramifications? Am I asking too much of the show?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Pete will be in a handfull of eps this year. He's now just recurring.

Not that he was used a lot last year....

Huh. I thought that Atlantis was creepily done, all told. The exchange between Weir and McKay was nicely confusing, as was Sheppard's creeping realisation.

Creepy, but telegraphed from the previews on. It was only a matter of how, not if.

I'm not so much of the opinion that it was telegraphed, more that it was inevitable. They're not going home.

That's why I was more concerned with (and impressed by -- I do not like Atlantis, normally) how it was done, rather than what was done -- that was given.

I think Sheppard intentionally thought of the odd decor to see how much came from his thoughts of it.

I enjoyed the Jack and Sam moment in the hallway, with the holding of the shoulders for a skosh longer than necessary and the "Oh, right. Letting go now," reaction. It was light and sweet and funny.

I enjoyed seeing Don Davis again.

I really like the actor who played Sam's Narim and Weir's Simon. He should do more (and maybe he does in other venues; I mean more that I can see).

I think Sheppard intentionally thought of the odd decor to see how much came from his thoughts of it.

Completely agree. He caught on way early. Good for him.

Best thing for me was the good use of Don S. Davis, whom I do miss.

I do wish that the preview hadn't blown the entire setup -- I'd at least have wondered if they'd gated into an alternate reality, for instance.

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

But but but... creepy! 'Cause, Narim! Who is dead!
