THE BSG PRESS SCREENERS HAVE ARRIVED!!
Apparently there are FIVE WHOLE EPISODES included. And a book thingy with LOTS OF PICTURES. I need to run over to DH's office right now and steal it.
I miss Oz. He'd get it. He wouldn't say anything, but he'd get it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

DH is feeding me drips and drabs as he's reading through the synopses (which go through ep 10). Here are a few choice bits:
- It looks like we're off New Caprica and back on Galactica by episode 5. Also, Roslin is back in power, with Baltar off with the Cylons. (Baltar going to live on a Cylon ship was spoiled at Comic Con as well.)
- It looks like Lee and Kara are going to be getting romantic by Ep. 10, but only after beating each other bloody in a previous episode about a Galactica-organized boxing competition (in which they are the star pairoff.)
- Espenson's ep is #9 and it involves the crew looking for a planet with a food source. Meanwhile, Baltar learns that D'eanna (Lucy Lawless) is purposely killing herself again and again to [edited to paraphrase] gain spiritual enlightenment. It does NOT sound like Jane will finally be giving us the funny BSG ep we may have been hoping for...

I hope they do add some light moments on a regular basis. D'eanna might have been driven to this behavior after watching too much grim BSG.

I'm not sure I want to examine what this says about me too deeply, but SQUEEEEE!!

C'mon, that's HYSTERICAL.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
What's with the apostrophes? In the absence of actual bad-spelling bumpy-forehead aliens, have the robots taken on the role of bad spelling??

Yes, apparently humans are the only apostrophe-challenged sentient beings in the universe.
And, upon a more careful reading of the synopsis, it doesn't explicitly say that she's committing multiple suicides, just that she's using the power of resurrection. I can't think of what else that would mean though, unless she's just trying to gain enlightenment by taking lots and lots of jello baths.
I think the best part of the press book is the pictures.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I cannot decide if it is fortunate or unfortunate that this whole paragraph made me flash to Batman: Death and the Maidens, and now I am picturing a Jello Lazarus Pit.
