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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I finally had the chance to catch up with BSG. I loved the episode, especially the teaser. Oh, God, that music. So gorgeous. And all that heightened emotion and despair. It left me quite breathless.
Lee was being a prick, but I didn't mind, because he'd struck me a bit too much of a squicky-clean golden boy so far (well, except for that bit in which he tortured a prisoner with Starbuck.) And Roslin's newly-emerged religious fanaticism both fascinates and frightens me. Also: kudos to the writers for having Starbuck use people for sex--I understand Starbuck from the old BSG was a playboy, and it had kind of chafed my hide that they seemed to have shied away from making Starbuck promiscuous just because she was "a girl".
I thought Starbuck was still a wee bit too conflicted over the sex. Not a playboy analogue like I was hoping.
I thought Starbuck was still a wee bit too conflicted over the sex.
Wasn't she conflicted only when Lee got mad at her? Or when she realized (during the Baltar boinkage) that she loved Lee (if that's what happened)?
Yelling Lee's name was way not slick. The almost-secretly wanting to have meaningful sex with someone else tarnished it for me.
I'm really enjoying the prospect of a Baltar/Starbuck/Six threesome.
What about a Baltar/Starbuck/Six/Lee foursome?
::makes mental note to add limb-severing accidents to fanfic::
Tom has hit on a capital idea! We have textual proof that loss of a limb increases the sex appeal of a character by leaps and bounds. We should initiate a working group to study how best to implement amputation while avoiding the Potential Woobification Factor.
... Fassbinder would be proud.
But the woobification increases the sex appeal too -- or are you biased against creepy Oedipal sex? C'mon now.
