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.
Vonnie beat me to it -- Tazey's Right Here, Right Now, which I can watch over and over and over again.
Huh. I adore that vid beyond the telling of it, but it strikes me as the kind of thing that is going to be tough for someone unfamiliar with the canon to get. I've never tried it on someone who doesn't know Farscape, though; I suppose it's entirely possible that it would succeed based on the Pretty.
Oh, and another pimping vid: Seah and Margie's "Haunted," for Odyssey 5.
strikes me as the kind of thing that is going to be tough for someone unfamiliar with the canon to get.
Actually, that's what Laura said when I showed it to her -- that it was a celebration of the show, but more for those already into the show.
You and she may be right, but I still love it to death.
For Farscape there's a vid out there using "High and Dry" which is in no way shippy but gives a good overall feel for Farscape. Helpfully, I can't remember who it's by.
Did we know that the screenwriter for Million Dollar Baby wrote for Due South?
From Tim Goodman's column:
If he didn't know it before, Paul Haggis learned Sunday night at the Academy Awards that writing for Hollywood is a strange business. In 1996 he wrote a TV series, "EZ Streets," that was nothing short of brilliant, and almost nobody saw it. Then his "Million Dollar Baby" -- an extremely flawed story -- dominated the Oscars.
No doubt Haggis is proud of "Million Dollar Baby," even though, as his first Oscar-nominated effort, it lost in the adapted screenplay category to a far better script, "Sideways." But the truth is, Haggis might be a better television writer -- where he's received two Emmys for his work on "thirtysomething," two Gemini Awards from his native Canada for the series "Due South," and even a Humanitas Prize for "thirtysomething."
What was Million Dollar Baby adapted from?
From a collection of short stories, Sean.
What was Million Dollar Baby adapted from?
Rope Burns. (Which looks like it's been released since as Million Dollar Baby.)
Thanks ita, Jess. I've been wondering about that since they announced the nominees, but never got around to asking the question until just now.
You know, for some reason I've been assuming that his season of Smallville is going to be the last one. Perhaps because it's Clark's senior year?
But then I finally paid attention to those cell phone ads that start off with something about decoding Lex' cell phone code or something . . . anyway, it's some sort of contest where the price is a part in this Fall's season premiere of Smallville , which suggests that it's going to be around for another season.
