If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

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".

Yikes but it's not just syndication that gets screwed.

Sci-Fi did a frell-up last Monday (Sept 29) and showed Ep 5x22 "Revelations" before 5x21 "Meridian." Revelations deals with the aftermath of Meridian.

ETA: got it backwards. fixed

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

Huh - I'd heard that the episode was written specifically as a way to get the kiss. God only knows when it comes to SG fannish politics, though. I think some folks just make stuff up.

the Stargate SG-1 one was frankly unimpressive. And the person doing the overview used that annoying promo picture with everyone out of uniform and Carter leaning on Jack all girly and flirtatious and totally out of character, which annoyed me to no end.

Ha! I saw that, and hand to God, my first thought was "oh, Vonnie would be pissed off that she used that picture. That's an OOC picture, dude! Teal'c never smiles like that!"

Shame, really. There was such opportunity for snark and love-sharing, and it was wasted. Oh well.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

So far I've only looked at the CSI stuff on crack_van, since I can find most of the rest elsewhere.

I get the impression that the person who wrote the Buffy overview doesn't even LIKE the show, and maybe never did.

You too? At least she hasn't liked it since season 3. Pffft.

And the SG-1 overviewer has too much slash-colored glasses on.

OTOH Shaye's overview was brilliant, as was the one someone did for H:LOTS.

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

Ha! I saw that, and hand to God, my first thought was "oh, Vonnie would be pissed off that she used that picture. That's an OOC picture, dude! Teal'c never smiles like that!"

Heh, predictable, am I not? Granted, everyone looks hella pretty, but that's not what the show is all about. OK, I guess for a lot of folks, that may be what the show's all about. I watch it for the snark and funky travel through the gate, and cool people blowing shit up. And sometimes for the angst.

I'd heard that the episode was written specifically as a way to get the kiss.

You may be right. The director dude (and the special effect guy) doing the commentary mentioned the filler necessity during the montage, but the kiss was probably planned. I have a sneaking suspicion that the pottery stuff was probably added in though.

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

I read the FS one, and laughed my ass off (hell, I even was driven to comment). But mostly I'm scared of reading what'll piss me off.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

OTOH Shaye's overview was brilliant

The Farscape one? I was CRYING with laughter. The Smallville one is pretty funny, too.

It felt like all she cared about was the slash, to the detriment of oh, plot-related issues. But perhaps I am misremembering.

Wait! I am misremembering. It was the Firefly overviewer, not the SG-1 person. She was waaay into Simon and didn't even have anything to say about Book. I was annoyed.

Ah, that makes more sense. Yeah, I felt bad for Book too.
