I'm really trying to feel the SG love, but I'm starting to think it's not happening. There are bits and pieces of each show that are...nice, but I can't figure out why I should care about anyone except Claudia Black. (Even BB isn't drawing me in, mostly because his character so far is a big giant nothing. He's not Chricton, but he's not anyone else either. He's just Ben Browder reading some very flat lines very flatly.)

It's interesting that Baltar's ploy worked though, isn't it? Of course, he is knows better than anyone that the Cylons can be human in some of their reactions. I suppose he was counting on that. (And how funny is it that no matter what he does, Baltar gets blackmailed by a woman.)

I'm so relieved that Adama is back. . . even if it is too late.

So the next woman I go out with, I'll have to ask her, "If we get married, you won't pressure me into having command of a battlestar, will you?"

Unless you're a Cylon sleeper agent, in which case having command of a battlestar could be useful.

I think that they are parallelling Tigh's relationship with his wife to Baltar's with Six in hopes that we think that Mrs. Tigh is a Cylon.

Unless you're a Cylon sleeper agent, in which case having command of a battlestar could be useful.

Oh, good point.

Of course, my wife-to-be could be a Cylon sleeper agent. Or we both could be, and we'd have Cylon sleeper sex.

It could be like that movie - you know, the one about the guy and the woman... they shoot stuff....

So, you think that there might be at least two different Cylon organizations setting their sleeper agents in place each unaware of what the other guys are doing?

Oh, has anyone been checking out the podcasts on the SciFi website? [link]

Just like DVD commentary. Kinda' interesting, but also sometimes somewhat spoilery as the the general direction of the next few episodes.

They just put up this week's podcast, but they still haven't put up last week's.

Yeah, that does sound kinda inefficient. OTOH, maybe Cylon sleeper agents really do have soulmates, and they just find each other as if destined to.

Huh. I could just develop this world view a little more and apply it to my life - it'd be a surefire way to convince people I was insane.

Best. SGA. Evah. All Rodney, all the time. Despite the fact that the writers are desperately trying to slash him with everyone EXCEPT Sheppard to draw our attention away from the OTP that is McShep.

Mmmmm, new guy. He's hottitude on a stick, LOVE IT. Also loved the Weir/Sheppard interaction: "Look, puppy followed me home! Can I keep him, Mom?" "He'll be your responsibility - you'd better walk him & feed him."

Finally, the adorable wee Zelenka. I just can't get enough of him.

SG-1 wasn't bad either. The meta in "now you'll have to operate on 30% of your budget because Atlantis is getting all the attention" was pretty funny. It's like they've gone into constant farce mode over there. Once I got over the shock and stopped taking it at all seriously (more or less after the second ep), I started enjoying the hell out of it. That and Daniel being so ridiculously cute.

Still not watching BSG. Or House. Starting to regret the latter but far too lazy to ahem' them. Anyone know if there are going to be reruns?

One interesting thing about SG-1 is the sudden appearance of all these non-Goa'uld spacefaring civilizations in our galaxy. Where the heck have they been all this time?

Also, the monk referred to Vala as Vezzina (or something very similar). The meta keeps on coming.
