Piffle. My Tivo recording of the last Atlantis ep -- the one with Ford and the Lost Boys -- cut out at the halfway mark, dunno why.
Off to BT.
Zoe: Uh huh. River, honey? He's putting the hair away now. River: It'll still be there... waiting.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Huh. It can't be that it ran out of tape....

No, I dunno what it happened. But I have succeeded in aheming it, so I'll watch the rest of it tonight.

Art Crawl!!!
Sebastian has a sub shop. (On GG.)
I am so glad that Lane and the band (Hep Aliens) were on the show last night.
Also, do you think we'll get to see the Pegasus press gang going through Colonial One and the other civilian ships that are under Galactica's protection?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm sure Cain has had their press corps shot by now, or else drafted into being Cylon bait or something.

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
Different kind of press gang, I expect. Fewer questions, more hitting people over the head and conscripting them into the fleet.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Okay, so is the general consensus that there is no way that Balthar is a cylon and he is just a lucky guesser?
I don't buy the lucky guess shit, but if that's the general consensus, I'll shut up about it.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I only "buy" lucky guesses inasmuch as, sometimes writers have more sense of the dramatic than they have common sense.
If Baltar were a cylon, why did the sexbot have to seduce him? Why all the chain-yanking, that leads to "You are creepy!" reactions from other people, if there isn't a specific action needed at that moment? Consider the counter example of the clueless version of Boomer, who blacked out, did stuff, and then blacked back in in private locations where she could re-orient secretly. (Except that last, by necessity.)
If Baltar is a cylon, then the cylons are too stupid to live.
Which, in this universe, puts them neither above nor below the humans.

On a somewhat more meta level, a big reason Baltar is such an interesting character is that his weakness led to the betrayal of the human race in the mini. If they made him a Cylon, the writers would just be throwing that interesting part away.
