Bwah! "Crap, indeed." I think I'm going to end up liking Hermiod much more than Thor.
Funny how Sheppard had no trouble immediately trusting a friendly alien as long as she looked like Chaya.

It's getting better ratings than SG-1, so it's relatively unlikely that SciFi will be cancelling it within the next decade?

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
But sometimes they don't die! They just make you worried that they died.

But we know that they can't lose more than 48,000 random extras. It's nice that there's a built in limit in the opening credits.
That makes me think, should they be changing that bit each episode when people get killed? That would be a kinda cool and morbid bit in the opening credits.
Also, it's odd that SG-1 and SGA have the super short opening credits now.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

They are. The number was 47,874 last night instead of 47,875 last week since we've lost that red shirt guy in Kobol last week. I'm now morbidly curious about the opening credit next week to see just how many people we lost in this episode because... wow. It was a fucking massacre.
New music on BSG. I liked the piano piece Starbuck played at her place, but it felt kind of instrusive at the end when it was repeated. Interesting insight into her character though, this revelation of her as an artist. Yay backstory!

This very thing. It's really pretty impressive.

I had pretty much the same thought, and I'm checking next week to see if they change it look what happens when you miss a post before hitting Post.
tiggy, the only thing about BSG for me was that it took a little while to warm to some of the characters, but it's been completely worth it. And the story had me the whole time, particularly starting with the S1 pilot (the mini, while fine, didn't grab me the way the pilot ep did).
ETA: Did anyone get a handle on how many Cylons were on board? It didn't seem like that many, which is, of course, scarier.

Art Crawl!!!
It wasn't very many -- just what could have fit in that one ship that crashed into the Galactica.
Did the fighter pilot played by EJO's son die? (Hotdog, I think.)
And I must admit, that everytime one of the little groups of people came across a lone survivor in a room with a bunch of bodies -- I wondered if that person was really a cylon. I guess we will know eventually.
