'The Message'


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 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

Er, I can't promise. But lots of people really liked these last few episodes...

(And thank you!)

ETA: That's the one, Matt.

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

I don't think that Shephard's any more convinced of his rightness than the other characters. And I'm sure if his training or accomplishment was insufficient to the task of being in command, someone else would be.

Sheppard was actually an accomplished pilot and Air Force officer before being offered the Atantis gig. He was also hand-picked by Gen. O'Neill.

Really? As I recall, he sat in that chair and lit it up, thus making Weir really really want him. (And I'd give you the file of last week's if I had it, I swear... I've got it on the TiVo if you want a tape.)

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I wouldn't cry if Enterprise did get re-upped, especially with the current creative team. However, the horse is looking awfully dead at this point, and reality is reality.

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

Theo, I have an avi file of the ep at home. "Before I Sleep", right? Is your profile addy good for YouSendIt? If so, I'll send it to you when I get home.

Vonnie beat me to it. I wasn't sure whether I still had it, but I do.

Also, Boxed Set ate my happy b-day post to Katie this morning. Apparenly it didn't like me copycatting Anne. Well, got it in lj, anyway.

Beverly, I think my pre-existing love of SG-1 helped me like Atlantis. Though I think only one thing has ever actually made me squee with delight, and that was a sign rather than a character. And I have love for won't shut-up guy. Well, Sheppard, too (dark-haired annoying one, to you). Anyway, though, I did find the post hiatus eps more engaging on the whole, so... there may be hope. And yay for your SG-1 viewing. The love'll creep up on you, I'm sure of it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The thing is, I was attracted and intrigued by the Sheppard actor in the about the series thing SciFi did. It's the character that makes me want to slap him. So far, at least. Of course O'Neill did that too in SG1, till I got past it. Smug and sarcastic doesn't really work for me unless I like something else about you first.

What do you love about Rodney. Redeem him for me, so I can watch until I like.
