Damn if that wasn’t the world’s longest teaser. Well, not Alias-long. But still. The thing with Billy and Duala is still very cute. Not as cute as Cally but close. That was a nice touch, with the collar flattening. Oh, shut UP novice flight woman.
Crap. Cylon.
Hee, credits. Much love.
Dude, that was Lee? I didn’t even know he was there. Close call.
Oh, her name’s Cat. OK, then, shut up Cat. No more rounds? Not good. Hee, ‘toaster shopping’.
I love Roslin. Heh, ‘Thank you’ means ‘It’s about goddamn time’. I love Lee’s voice. Heh. ‘The real one’s just make a bigger noise’.
Caprica! ‘Your girlfriend’s from a lovely family. Good people – great values(!)’ Ah, Starbuck. Happy smile. I kinda feel bad for Helo, though. I guess that’s his tragedy, falling for the illusion. It’s quite sad, you know? Ooh, Starbuck’s flat? Awesome.
Space vent? Not good. Not, not, not good.
Kobol? Dude, forgot about that. Baltar’s still ghosting about, I see. Adama? Oh, dream land. Shit. Baby, too. Interesting. ‘It’s a child, obviously.’ Well…yeh. What the hell is the point of the sequence? Um, where’s he…? That’s obviously not a baby. They probably spent their budget on all the effects. Water? Is this going to be a Moses thing? Ominous music would suggest otherwise, wouldn’t it? OMIGOD. I can’t believe it took me so long. He’s going to kill the baby! AAAIIIIIIEEEEEEE! That’s the most horrid thing I’ve ever seen!
Oh, no. See, now I’m laughing at Baltar in the water. But I shouldn’t. Baltar, stop making me laugh!
Ugh, skulls. Human sacrifice in paradise. Figures. But this is a Cylon interpretation; I can’t figure whether she’s twisting him or telling the truth, which is the real pinch, isn’t it?
Oh, enough with the dried blood make up already. It’s boring. And mildly gross, too. I love that the small arms room is labelled. You know, in case people forgot. Six rounds? Heh, useful. Wow, do we think that guy’s gonna die?
‘Never have the house keys when we need ‘em.’ Heh. Kara’s a painter? Wow, that’s a cute detail. Her place is a total bomb. I can’t tell if that’s just the effect of the attacks or a residual of how she actually used to live, lol. Ew, fridge. And music. Now she looks happier. Wouldn’t it attract attention? Aw, her dad. She looks so tired. This is really very sweet. Cigars, of course. Nostalgic!Kara. ‘Everyone I know is fighting to get back what they had… I’m fighting cos I don’t know how to do anything else.’ Which, I guess, is the fundament to her character and what makes her special. This is a very nice scene. Too bad TWoP’s going to rip it to pieces. And her knee’s bugging her again; that was a nice parallel with Helo.
Oh god. Many dead bodies. Not good. Dualla! ‘Try using her rank.’ Nice touch. I love these little details, I love how the Prez is still using her head. McDonnell is superb.
It’s a good thing they’ve learned to adapt to conditions without comms. I like the red pencil thing; it’s a nifty prop and just looks cool even though it's really, really not. However, now that
daygloparker has convinced me that Gaeta is a Cylon, I’m a little nervous about where this is heading. (Yo, he GAVE her the GUN). Prayer, Tigh, is not going to help you, methinks.
Oh, poor Chief. Chief/Cally OTP, y’all. Hee, Cally said ‘motherfrakker’! That’s the best thing I’ve heard, lol. And they’re on the move again. No stopping in this show, eh?
Heh, Baltar came back. Shoot him! Damn. ‘I’m getting a really bad feeling about this place.’ Heh. Baltar equals Mister-Frakking-Obvious. Oh, dog tags. Oh, that’s really sad. And Casinas (sp?) is going to die anyway? Oh, this is awful. Poor Chief. The ethics of euthanasia; BSG bites another whole. Can you imagine the agony of this guy? To watch them both die and take that responsibility? Oh god, the kid doesn’t even know what’s going to happen. Oh god – that’s not even consensual. God. And he told him there’s a raptor. The guy who plays Chief is so good. Aw, frak. Now I’m crying.
Battlestar. Everyone is at a stop. ‘OK, if you’re gonna keep it in your trousers like that? Might wanna turn the safety on.’ Hee! Now that would have been a close call. See Dee’s priorities there? *snerk* Hatch is stuck, heh – because that isn’t typical. That poor guy with Prez. Not a good day to be navigator, eh? AFT DAMAGE CONTROL IS WHERE THE CYLONS ARE OHNOES!! THE SUSPENSE! I love InCharge!Tigh. ‘You get the right frakking now!’ Or no sweeties for a week! Apollo is appropriately obedient.
I guess this is the denouement. Um, don’t shoot each other in the head, will you? Cos, you know, bad. ‘Sometimes you gotta roll a hard six.’ Uh, I second Scared Guy – what does that mean? Is that a gambling thing? Hee! Apollo doesn’t know shit. I can just hear him thinking ‘Shutupshutupshutup stupid Scaredy Boy! Where’s Kara when you need her?!’ Aw, Old Adama wisdom. Someone should ask him what the frak it means.
Ominous boot clomping. Stomp! Stomp! Argh! Frakking awesome graphics. When they run towards the ‘camera’? Quite frightening, really. Billy YOU IDIOT. Even I can see them things going, ‘Gotcha!’ Ooh, lots of shooting. And screaming. I never really get what’s going on in these scenes. Yet another sign that I need to put my specs on.
WOAH. That was AMAZING. It was like a dog bounding to lick his face; WOW. They really know their shit, don’t they? That was surreal.
Roslin sounds pissed off. Oh shut up Excited Scaredy Guy. I think Apollo thought they were pretty damn big, asshole. Many a close call in this one. You know, the more that guy goes religious on Roslin’s ass, the more pissy she gets about it. That’s a little odd considering she sent Starbuck off, right? Although, I guess, she’s always been pretty pragmatic. It’s just that when you take a stand for something you believe in, why is it suddenly a pain in the hind?
Oh, back to Kara and Helo (what is his name?! Agathon? Oh, Carl? Karl?) Car keys! Hehe. Again, I say – DOESN’T ANYONE HEAR THEM?!
Aw Dee and Billy. Cute. Let’s move on to high rollers now. Oh, this is too sad. Everyone is together again. I want Adama to wake already. Poor Apollo. I like that he’s on even ground with Tigh, however much Tigh hates it. I LOVE this piano music. Oh, father-son angsting. Much, much love.
W00t Apollo!
‘Thank the gods I didn’t have kids(!)’ Damn straight. Can imagine what Ellen and Tigh’s kids would be like?!
Remind me never to do that again. OK, what else is there? Oh, of course – SVU and Atlantis. Atlantis was still fantastic. I loved the whole, ‘OK, it’s official – you never get to name anything. Ever!’ with Ford. And turkey sandwich, hee. I can’t believe anyone who ships Shep/Teyla. It’s too blatantly canon to work, if that makes any sense. Heh, I love Beckett and Rodney, though. Rodney, especially, has that face. I LOVED the argument scene when Weir was being totally rational and Sheppard was like, will, right is right. And I cannot take the Wraith seriously. They look like drag queens. *happy sigh* Feel-good Fridays are back, hurrah! Oh, except for when Colonel Doggett died. On a side note, puddlejumper is a fun word.
I can’t even remember what happened in SVU. I can remember the episode from last week but this weeks? Nope. Not a thing. What the hell happened? I remember liking it, too. Oh, man killed, wife raped and taped to bed? Yeh. Actually, a really clever case, all coming back to that nurse from the hospital. She was twisted. I don’t have a lot to say on this but I really liked the episode. Lots of twists and graphically horrid. A good watch. I skipped The Shield. I didn’t see the end of last season and it’s just on way too late now. I’ll probably catch it next week, lol.
