Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Smallville really, really needs to bring on the pink kryptonite during sweeps.

Everyone wins.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Compound that with him tossing General Lane's soldiers around like rag dolls

Heck, she did the same. Then again, she knows all those fancy martial arts that render bodyarmor useless.

Oooooh, marvelous article on Teevee.org about Farscape today.

10. It's just plain fun. Think of Farscape as The Princess Bride of TV science fiction. You've got handsome heroes, beautiful heroines, fights, chases, narrow escapes, valiant companions, evil villains, and true love. All you need to bring is an open mind and a big bowl of popcorn.

Wheeee! t bounces enthusiastically

I'm allowing myself to get excited. This could be bad.

Art Crawl!!!

Suela, they're playing part 1 twice on Sunday and then once again before they play part 2 on Monday, right?

(Just in case I don't get home in time on Sunday!)

I think so, yes. Plus it looks like there's some late-night airings too. I'd check the SciFi.com website.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Sumi, from SciFi.com's schedule, they're airing it back-to-back-to-back Sunday night -- 9 p.m., 11 p.m., and 1 a.m.

I love this, from the TeeVee.org article:

4. It's Buffy gone sci-fi. You don't have to be a fundamentalist Whedonite to enjoy Farscape, but Buffy and Angel fans will find a lot to enjoy here. A hero who's torn between ordinary life and an epic destiny. Smart, kickass women and fascinating antiheroes. Witty dialogue loaded with pop culture references. Characters who grow and change over time. Season-long story arcs with neck-snapping surprise twists. Farscape is very different from the late, lamented Firefly, but it's nonetheless a worthy complement to the Joss Whedon canon.

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

Heck, she did the same.

She beat them up, but she didn't throw them around.

I've always asserted that people who liked Buffy would like Farscape. Foolish are those who didn't believe me. *g*

I'm going to start all Farscape potentials somewhere in mid-season 1 (maybe The Flax or Durka Returns) because I almost lost interest in the show after watching the first 4 or 5 episodes. The grabbiness of the show didn't hit me until much later.

Also, I just finished The Way We Weren't and, just, wow. And I suspect that guy was who Aeryn dreamt about back in Rhapsody in Blue.
