Also, what a shame they don't go for the Farscape option instead and keep two Lexes around for a while .
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's been the implication that he's knowledgeable in the field, but not that much hands on, I think.

Frank, do you know that they don't? I don't know how it wraps up -- I thought it might play into the sudden yet inevitable betrayal, if they wanted.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I think Buffy was certainly riffing on Star Trek, but that's different, to me, from un-attributed, apparent ripping off of plots.

Frank, do you know that they don't?
Nope, I don't know anything I haven't read here. I just figured that the Farscape gambit would be both riskier, and more creative than Smallville usually gets.
Although, now that I think about it, soap operas keep evil twins around ad infinitum, so who knows.
eta Granted what was risky and creative about the two Crichton saga was that it wasn't an evil twin scenario or a constituant part scenario.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Who knew? Wayne Brady can actually act. And he's almost as tall as Chris Judge.

I'm guessing you don't watch The Chappelle Show, Beverly.

I don't, ita. I probably should, huh? Brady's acting ability is no surprise to Chapelle Show watchers?
I was watching BSG, but Cashmere reminded me that Numb3rs is on. ScFi will show BSG later tonight, and on Monday. I think I'll watch it Monday, after the two old eps of SG1. I'm trying to catch up.

Let's just say -- you'd have "Does Wayne Brady have to choke a bitch????" bouncing through your brain all episode. And you get a payoff!
I admit, I held Brady in a bit of disdain until I saw artfully he sent himself up on Chappelle's show. Or maybe that was the real him -- and what we've seen the rest of the time was an act.
Either way -- I respect him a lot more now, and Stargate just boosts that. Geek!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I thought he and Judge looked barely able to keep a straight face in the "You're a man of your word" scene.
