I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Lee? People who do nice things for other people should deserve a treat of their choice and a karma wheel spinning their way.

For example, Lee. Know what she did? ~~Made me lose sleeping hours~~ Sent me the most perfect present, and for no reason whatsoever other than the nice-itude of her heart: the EE of RotK. Universe, are you reading that? So there.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So should I just skip the BG pilot? esp since I never loved the original?

I was so bored by the pilot/miniseries that I left halfway through, but the first few eps of the series had me, not hooked, but interested enough to keep watching. The acting is better, and the pacing has picked up a lot.

The new version is different enough from the original (same basic premise, execution updated a LOT) that I don't think love or indifference of one will translate to the other.

[eta that I wouldn't pick it over Lost, but I'm sure BG will repeat more than often enough to catch it in an unconflicty time slot]

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Beth, they're also re-airing the BSG miniseries on Sunday the 16th in one four-hour block on Sci-Fi.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Heather -- you should spoiler font.

the time lapse thing didn't bug me because didn't she have to wait until Wallace got his fake?

But she had the disk in her back pocket for a long time before she looked at it. In fact, I think she raided the ceremony and went to karaoke while it was in her possession, but before she looked.

I think so far they've redone one ep (and I've watched eleven so far) from the original series -- they've taken a lot of liberties, and it's good.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

the stupid one minute over lap is killing me -- I will watch one and record the other -- but I don't have the option on TIVO to tell it to record PP starting at 901 - unless I am there - which I am never sure of happening

Oh yes. No mechanical doggies anywhere in sight.

You can't do a manual recording?

I know that Starbuck used to be a guy -- was Boomer too?
