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.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
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."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
From a collection of short stories, Sean.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
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.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I'm pretty sure they were talking about a 5-year arc when they started the show, sumi.
Though if you're planning for 5 years, one would think there'd be consistant story being told across those 5 years rather than each season being more or less stand-alone (considering the magic reset to status quo button they seem to use) as we've been getting.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Oops, wrong place.
