No.

seriously *&(*(^^$ skiffy twice.

Personally, I want both to be outstanding; all the damn time. But each show is on a different path and pace. I'm not going to judge one or the other because it's in a different gear. Both shows are moving along and like I said last week, I think BSG is getting ready to 'splode.

Looks like four cylons,

"I'M NOT A CYLON!"

Oops, three cylons and Starbuck are going to visit the stranded basestar.

and now i don't dare read any of the posts in this here TB so, um - bye!

Awww, sad now! :(

Natalie: "Why Sister?"

Six: "I couldn't let it go. On New Caprica..."

Natalie: "She was the one?"

Six: "I never did anything to her. We were working at the water treatment plant and she just..."

Natalie: "I know. I remember. After you downloaded, we tried to work through this."

Six: "How do you work through something like this? I never forgot her expression as I tried to scream. She just...slapped tape over my mouth, and threw me in that septic tank. I still see her face when I try and sleep. We were trying to help thse people!"

Natalie: "I know. I know. I wish there was something I could do."

Six: "Then I'm glad it's you."

I LOVE European cinema and while I live in NYC, I'm not American - funny how you accuse me otherwise.

That I want to see Tory torn to pieces by rabid dogs is not an uniquely American thing. It's human nature. I *know* it may not happen, but that doesn't make me want it any less.

So he stomps his feet and throws a tantrum on an internet board to get attention.

The rest of us read his verbal diarrhea, roll our eyes, and imagine him furiously jerking off to a circa 1980 Dirk Benedict poster. How's that working out for you Burn?

Anders is my favorite of the final five because he's so hilariously clueless. lmao @ him about to try and use the Cylon computer, I wonder what would have happened.

And word to what someone else said about how the Cylons are gonna be like 'wtf' when they find out who the Final Five are and that they're even more clueless than everyone else. Anders had that "...shit" look on his face when he heard them talking about reviving Xena to find the Final Five who allegedly know where Earth is.

ALSO. WTF @ KARA BEING TOLD SHE'S THE HARBINGER OF DEATH AND NOT REACTING IN ANY WAY. *EVERYONE* heard that and they're all acting as happy as can be that the plan worked out and they're headed back to the rendevous?! WTF? It's like they just ignored it as more nonsense.

It's cool to see the Hybrid still at the center of things showing the way. Her comment about the "seventh node" being restored might well refer to the 7th Cylon (could be a stretch, but I wonder).

Anders displayed the super strength of the Final Five (mentioned previously by Tory)when he took on a Six.

The Centurion's natural vigilance in protecting the Hybrid possibly shows a centurion-Hybrid connection with much more depth than previously thought. Just a thought.

The Hybrid Theory still lives! Could the Hybrid hail from the 13th tribe, too?!

These rules are simple, easy to follow, and Utterly Inflexible.

Practice saying it with me:

"I like Grace Park. I LOVE Grace Park. I FRAKKIN LOVE GRACE PARK!"

see, how hard was that?

All joking aside, although I could tell it was a skull-cap, I think her great performance blunted the edges on that particular production value issue.

BTW BSG does use alot of film references/borrows from movies which have been discussed in these TBs before. Take In-Head Six/Baltar for example. I see similarities to Oda Mae/Sam in GHOST (minus the romance) in the way Sam enabled her to solve and tackle problems.

I find it interesting that Baltar's religion is Christian-esque, while his image of 'crossing the river' is straight out of Greek mythology. The River Styx and Charon, anyone? They even use the word 'ferry.' I love that this tension between God and Gods is more than just between monotheism and polytheism, but between old and new cultures, between casual agnosticism and devout belief. Loved Nana Visitor's cameo with that.

I find it funny that actors would be angry that they've been given something incredibly interesting and conflicting to play. Frankly, I don't buy it. You know that at least the actors playing Anders and Tori were thanking the gods for making their characters infinitely more interesting. But even Chief and Tigh have some incredible stuff to play with this Final Five thing.

Q. If you know who the final Cylon model is, I'm sure you can't tell me...

A. I don't know, either. And no one knew when (the other four were revealed.) You should have seen what happened. There was anger. Real anger. The main one was Michael Hogan (who plays Colonel Tigh.) He just couldn't get past it. He said, "I didn't sign up for this kind of stuff." He was so hurt he was a Cylon.

This TB has fallen off the charts so there's really no point in posting this, but then, I don't have to hear from the fanatical lovers either and I'm looking to waste some time. I loved this show once, but I'm not sure why. I guess I like a story about the last remnants humanity on the run for their lives. The fleet isn't really in the story anymore. You'd almost think Galactica was the only ship. And I don't really care who is or isn't a cylon anymore since they fucked with the whole "cylons are computers" aspect. That seems to be what RDM is going for and it doesn't work for me. He's created a universe where I can no longer care about any of the characters. And I don't care how quickly or slowly the plot is moving because it's stupid and pointless.

So why am I still watching? I guess I'm hoping for another Exodus II out of nowhere. Hell, I was thinking that Lost was getting to be irredeemable last year but they've really managed to pull back from the brink and become kickass again. Even if I don't get all the answers on that show, I'm enjoying myself while I watch it. Galactica is both unenjoyable and going nowhere. I'm only continuing to watch because the end-date is known. I won't be bothering with Caprica. DS9 and yes, even Stargate, were far better than this pile of crap. Hell, Cleopatra 2525 was better. A handful of potential and a few good eps, does not a good series make. The comment someone made about BSG being prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella kind of goes to show that this show is only liked by the pretentious substance-less yuppy crowd. Preaching to the wind, but it feels good to get that off my chest. This show is officially on my suck list.
