good god and finally finished!

Geez. Okay. Just be in a coma til Friday. Not a problem. Oh, damn it. Not finished. Still have the main credits page to finish. Maybe I can just assure everyone that the entire episode stands as a homage to self-referencing and thinly veiled Crichtonisms-- yeah? Nah. I didn't buy it either. Oh yeah. Well, okay, that'll be along, hopefully before Friday, and hey. Anyone just dying to send me an email about Macbeth, the Princess Bride, role-reversal and the psychology of Hansel and Gretel, or well, hell, just about anything else... I'm all ears. Already got plenty of thanks to send out to people prompting and providing info. We're way the frell behind in emails.

Oops, forgot, there is a least one very important piece of information to be gleaned; a 'big picture' element. I got a shiver and a giggle all wrapped up in one when I heard it. Anticipation is killin' me!

=> Here's some stuff we've been saving up without time to even check in on blogger.

Just sayin' again: the BBQ doesn't care for episode summaries. What with the transcript, we're pretty certain we know what happened in the ep- sequentially speaking. Heh. Practically blind from that. *g*

Having said that, we understand the desire for summaries from those who haven't 'seen' the ep, and so a few links to be added to the sidebar. TGUT, Snurcher, Farscape World, and Farscape on TNMC. Ep summaries usually come a lot slower than ep discussions, and even slower than the transcript. We're usually done and put it to bed before we can add links on individual transcript pages for episode summary links. So. If summaries are what make you channel Mikey-- you'll be able to look left for that.

For the transcript pages, what we look for, what we want, what we need; insightful discussion(s). A pointing finger in varicolored text that screams, "Oh, wow! Look at this!", shining a big old spotlight on particular story moments, or story elements. Stuff that makes the BBQ go: "Cool. I didn't see that." or, "Hell, yeah!". Makes us smile. Big time. For somesuch as heretofore described, check out The Max Factor, for some of those big old spotlights on John Quixote. There is so much going on in the episode we could chew on it from now til doomsday and not hit on every metaphorical element.

Oh, but first, that non-NC17 Smallville fic recc, I was searching for, although safety rating probably R for adult themes. All Human Things, by Livia. I love the the style of this one-- this is the one I was trying desperately to remember, J. Incredible. Incredibly satisfying. I don't believe you have to have seen the episode that this story draws it's history from, I haven't and I didn't feel a bit lost.

Ally Reccs

Watch the same episodes as everyone else-- fancy myself perceptive. Hm. Sometimes the simplest things slip past me. Exploiting one of those simple things, Sunshiner makes me go 'oops', and shiver in fearful anticipation. Season 4 SpoilerFic: Sojourn, by Sunshiner.

Got a couple other things with no time to add. Feature more NC17 reccs tomorrow. For now... sleeeeeeeeep.
