If Daddy knew what we knew he wouldn't be trusting Lee with anything important to do.

That's gotta hurt.

I've been saying there should be a black market for ages. I'm not sure about the space mafia, though.

Your tag here.
This isn't a very fun episode. I'm having a hard time watching.

OK, I'm half way through (on TiVo delay) and... wow. This episode sort of blows. And I don't think I've ever thought that about an episode of this show, even for "Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down". I mean, why kill Fisk, who was showing such an interesting ambiguity in previous episodes? And the whole thing with Lee and the prostitute is, frankly, a bit embarrassing. Add to that weird random flashbacks about a woman who've never heard of, and I really don't know where the hell we're going. And the whole Lee/Dualla thing feels like we've skipped an episode. Actually, make that several episodes. Sloppy.

Odd. But didn't mind that Lee shot the dude.
Hrmph. No battles.

I like the genre-mixing episodes, because I like seeing them experiment. So just for that, I liked it more than last week's, but I think they need stricter limits on cliches.
We certainly appear to have hit the character-delving portion of the season. I'm not sure that's playing to their strengths.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
It reminded me of a Lost episode, with the ambiguous flashbacks.
Next week doesn't look good either.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I feel like they've had new writers the past 2 eps.
I do like that, now that the Cylon fleet is no longer an immediate threat, all of our main characters are kind of lost. The rest of the fleet's been off having this whole other society, and they missed it!
The space mafia makes sense to me. If there's a criminal underworld, it makes sense for someone to be on top of it. (However, both DH and I thought that Lee was going to become the new Godfather at the end there. Kind of disappointed that didn't happen.)

Hmm, the second half of the BSG was a smidgeon better, but not by much. I don't know... the whole Lee angst felt very manufactured and inorganic. It'd been better if there were even a small mention of this all important woman in Lee's past in the previous episodes, but no. I did like that Lee shot the dude.
I LOVED tonight's episode of Atlantis when I first saw it, so I've watched it again just now, which has put me in the happy, happy place. David Hewlett and Amanda Tapping were fabulous together. What a terrific character piece, plus humor, angst, team-love, good Zelenka, and WHALE! *love*
