My god! I love Jonas! The way he twigged our lovely Sam to the answer!

Yeah, that was pretty cool. "I knew you'd come up with something." I kind of wish they'd kept him too -- it's not that he was bad; actually he was kinda cool! But people aren't snowmobile parts!

It's a remora, dimwit.

Exactly. To me it's the difference between seeing someone die after a long painful illness vs. a sudden death when they'd seemed perfectly healthy. At the end of its run BtVS was like an old dog who'd developed arthritis and kidney problems and was losing teeth and could barely move, so finally it was put to sleep. It's not like it was a playful young puppy full of potential who got hit by a car - that's more of the "Firefly" experience.

Except it still had really hot superchicks. Where are the hot superchicks in your analogy, I ask you?

Even an old dog can still attract the ladies out on walks, especially during the last days when it's in one of those dog-walker devices.

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

Bah. I missed the "Redemption" 2 parter. Actually the weekend syndication from the week before last was recored as "Redemption part 1" in my TiVo, but turned out to be the season 5 ender, "Revelation". And the TiVo didn't change the channel with this past weekend's showing, so I got the second half of "Red Violin" on Bravo instead of Stargate. I didn't get too broken up about it, since I share Katie's mellow stance where the show is concerned.

The good thing is, whoever's producing the SG DVDs have been churning them out season-after-season fairly promptly. I now have the shiny S4 DVDs in my hot little hands. I love the season 4. "Window of Opportunity" and "2001" rank up there in my top 5 SG episodes, ever. Plus, commentary track on every single episodes! Woo-hoo!

I guess I'm just having trouble with the sex appeal portion. What it comes down to is... where's Faith in this equation? Or is she like the still-functional dog organ that can be donated? Do they have pet organ donation? I guess they would... monkeys anyway, but animal-to-animal? That'd be nice; the spirit passes, but the parts serve other dogs...

Oh. Sorry. Shutting up.

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

Yeah, I had to take time to watch the good parts of WoO last night. Juggling! Plus, I love that the very first thing that Mr. Macho Soldier Jack does after being told he can do anything without consequences is... pottery. Wild, man!

You know, it's a little alarming that I can come up with a slashy rationale for that without even trying despite the fact that I'm not a slasher and don't particularly think Jack wants to have sex with Daniel.

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

Wow. I would have ditched that show a while back, but I'm proactive like that. I enjoyed the last season, although there was, you know, stuff.

The show itself is the dog - Faith would be like the girl who spies it on a walk (or drag) and sticks an Emily sticker on the harness.
