At long last my Friday night happened mid-day Sunday. Hey, better late than never.
SG-1:
The Anubis/Ba’al scene was just, well weird. It seemed like the actors were on different sets talking to blue walls or something. I might rewatch with the kids later, but it seemed odd at the time.
Also, I hate Sam-n-Jack
Oh dear, I gotta admit to liking Sam-n-Jack.
I don't hate Pete, actually. I hate Pete as a contrivance to spend more time on the Sam-n-Jack question.
Exactly
I will miss Jacob. Aww.
The 90 minutes didn’t seem all that to me. Hey, bonus 30 minutes, YaY, but I ended up tapping my fingers during some of the diner scenes.
Atlantis:
Still rooting for the Wraith
BSG:
the whole prophecy seems too unambiguious to even speculate on
The thing that bugs me with the presidential illness is that she either needs to get on with the dying, or some treatment options need to present themselves soon. I’m still on the fence on whether I like her or not.
I thought the Apollo action scenes were more than swell.

Good stuff.
Yeah, but what evidence of this have the other characters seen? Besides public masturbation, of course.
It seems to be played that it is being ignored because he is so brilliant. But yeah, bug-fuck crazy. (And yet DH wouldn’t mind switching places with him) And Six, totally crazy too. If she wasn’t I would dislike their scenes. It's more balanced this way.
Anyway, I foresee the Birth of An All Important Child Foretold in Prophecy, because every genre show has a miracle child.
Probably, still think the Caprica story drags. Ho hum.
Not so sorry I fell asleep during Catsquito.
I think I was promised HoYay.
Where is it?
There's gotta be at least one fairly major character who's a Cylon but that hasn't been revealed yet. Probably the character doesn't know s/he's a Cylon.
I think I was promised HoYay.
It usually simmers beneath the surface, then erupts in unpredictable intervals in all of its naked glory. It's a lot like a volcano that way.
Not much slashable couples in BSG, is there? (Unless you're considering Adama/Tigh.) Now, if Starbuck had remained the guy, the fandom would be overflowing with slash, but I'm loving Katee Sackhoff's Starbuck too much to wish her character played by someone else. BSG is just one of those I love in which I have no particular pairing-investment. Well, except for a vague wish for Roslin/Apollo, but the writers haven't fed that particular appetite of mine since "Bastille Day".

Can I state for the record how boring this plot twist is? For any Important TV Execs reading along,
please strike this from your plot-wtist repertoire forthwith.
Not just because of how annoying it is to watch formerly powerful women turn into Weepy Belly Carriers. I would also be OK with some normal, not-miracle children who do normal, not-miracle things like draw on walls.
I hear you. But the thing is, if Galactica!Boomer is pregnant, that ain't going to be a normal sprog who'll do normal sprog things like draw on the walls or throw a temper tantrum.
Also, how *can* Cyclons reproduce anyway? They're fascimiles of humans but they're supposed to be still machines, non? Once they start to spawn, "you're nothing but a toaster!" is no longer gonna fly too well as an insult.
It never occurred to me that Caprica!Boomer might be pregnant. (That is the Boomer we're talking about, right, what with the vomiting?)
Maybe she ate some bad RAM chips.

Caprica!Boomer might be pregnant.
Oh, yeah. I meant Caprica!Boomer, not the other one.
I don't know--my brain just immediately went there when she started to throw up and tried to cover up what was wrong from Helo. Mostly because getting her to sleep with Helo seemed to be a major mission on the Caprica-Cyclons' part; also, Six had expressed a wish (in the pilot, I think) that Baltar would impregnate her.
Oh, god, are they really going to go the Magical Pregnancy route? There's going to have to be a lot of Apollo to compensate for this.
