Browsing the list of the eight eps that Sci-Fi is showing for the Viewer's Choice Marathon (a.k.a. Labor Day weekend, and we aren't going to waste a new episode on people who are going camping or visiting their grandmoters), I was struck by the inclusion of '2010'. Now I like '2010' okay, but I never had the impression it was a terribly popular episode. Unlike say, Window of Opportunity, which is widely loved, or the two parts of 'Lost City.' I just find it odd that it was one of the top eight.
Is it popular among a certain shipper corner or something like that? is Joe Faxon so adored? ;)
And something 'gatey I found funny - I was looking at the transcriptions of some of the episodes into Spanish. And Jack's little catchhrase, "For crying out loud" in Spanish? "Por todos los diablos!" It's great. Has a ring to it. I think I'm going to start use that in conversation, with the appropriate amount of weary frustration, "Por todos los diablos!"
Proving my insanity I signed up for the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
sg_rarepairings ficathon. I'm nuts. And I just prevented myself from writing for yuletide which I was thinking about doing. But now I have a schedule and a group of deadlines (contest fic due end of Sept and two ficathons due in November). That will help me produce (nothing like panic to focus the mind, I've found). And I'm making a bit more of an effort to engage in the wider fandom, which I really haven't been for a long time.
Anyway, I received my other ficathon assignment already. mmm. It's so open ended I can pretty much write whatever, as long as it has the requested pairing. This requires thinky thoughts.

Re: The Reasons why I liked Joe Faxon by Selmak
And you're probably right, now that you've reminded me, that Joe seemed to believe Sam was okay. Although didn't Sam tell Janet that they'd been trying and nothing was wrong with them for, like, years? You'd think he would've clued in... bah Don't remember well enough and I can't be bothered to go look it up,because, yeah, lazy. But he did know about the program, IIRC, and so weaselly.
But poor Joe, sucked into a black hole in the 'real' timeliine. Not a nice way to go.
