New thread. Yay. I watch(ed) Highlander, Due South, Farscape, The Sentinel, and Smallville. I admit to liking RayV more but mostly because I thought the show was cancelled after season 2 and when I saw it on again I was extremely confused. Coming in again halfway through season 4 was not the way to go.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

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.

Jesus, Shrift. I'm SO glad I wasn't in DS when all that was going on.
... oh, wait. I'm not in DS now.
heh.

The Ray wars were, like...
If Internet fandom had been around in 1969, Dick Sargent would have been burned alive. I don't even want to think what would have happened to Brian Forster.

I feel much better informed about DS thank you...I have never really known what the hell was going on in Farscape and that has never kept me from reading and posting in that thread....so I'm all ready for Boxed Set goodness.
For the record: I didn't start watching Smallville until the very end of S2 (they are about to begin S3). I had a question about a continuity thing and instead of just asking in the Smallville thread - I went and read every single Smallville script from both S1 and S2 - yes this is extreme - I was bored.
So I became a fan of the show from reading the scripts, not watching the show - but now I have seen most of the episodes too and... well... I miss reading the scripts, honestly. But it's too late for me - I'm hooked. I'm also a big fat Smallville spoiler ho - because there really is no such thing as a Smallville spoiler and it fufills my new addiction to spoilers without ruining any HSQ (again, because Smallville has no HSQ).
That's my story.
I just want to check one more time: It's cool to whitefont Smallville spoilers in this thread, right?

Poor Dick Sargeant. I liked him muchly. Nothing against York, of course.

I can't even.

Hmm, would that be the fault of the [turn, head tilt, drop chin, look agonized] ACTING or some other cause?
It would so much easier to get hooked on Smallville if it were, y'know, better. I have a vacancy in an ensemble action/occult show with pretty pretty people and all, it even leads into Angel now. I should just kwitmahbitchin and settle into the mediocrity. Gripe, moan.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I understand there are people who don't thrive on the pretty that like Smallville, and that there are people who see things to it beyond the HoYay and the sparkles, but I just don't understand them.

'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"
Rosenbaum is a good enough actor that I can see how the show could be really good if the rest of them would just leap to his level. They are so in need of a Mutant Enemy-level creator, it's a crying shame, because they have the raw material on hand.

I can't watch Smallville because the cast is so pretty they scare me. They look alien or mutant or something.
... what? It's a valid response!

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Theodosia, I have often said the same thing. They're a good show-runner and writer or two from having an honest-to-God good show.
So much potential. Just needs more planning. t sighs
