Well, Helo is now the XO, right?
Wait, seriously? That's so weird. I guess that makes Tigh's comment make more sense. And...yeah, I guess Adama wouldn't let him be XO in his condition.
Wash: I'm not leaving her side, Mal. Don't ask me again. Mal: I wasn't asking. I was telling.

Torchwood:
really? because
Yeah, see, I thought he looked the part (my heart always breaks a litle when I see him looking sad. Poor boy), but there was something in the delivery that was just off (to me). Not at the same level as the others, and I just wasn't feeling it as genuine. Now, by the time they got out to the car, I was OK again. I should edit what I said - it's not that he's not good all-around, it's that I find him inconsistent. Except with the pretty. He's always that .
As for the rest, I'm glad it wasn't just me, then. I haven't seen the interview yet, but it's in the queue.

I was also very confused by that scene in Torchwood. Why was she the last one? Was that mentioned at all in the episode up until that point? *shrug* I did like the bits of Jack's backstory we got. I wonder how long ago, in his own timeline, Jack met Estelle? I thought his grief over her, in the scene with Gwen when he's self-medicating with alcohol, came across very well. Less so in the scene with the girl's mother after Jasmine disappears, but, ah well.

Kalshane, that was my reaction exactly to the wonder drug on Smallville -- you can't come up with a way to handle a (minor) side effect? Like, for instance, giving the dying person a shot of the Wonder Drug and then a quick shot of Thorazine right after? How seriously stupid....
I also missed that Helo is now the XO. But then I haven't watched the past two episodes again yet, and I seem to have been paying a whole lot more attention to the Baltar plot. He's kind of like a cockroach, isn't he?

Helo was the XO on Galactica at the end of last season and hasn't lost his position.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, that's right. Somehow I thought that Tigh became XO this season when he came back to Galactica, so I was thinking that Helo recently became XO and I missed it.

Watched Dr. Who last night. I liked seeing the "darker" of the Doctor, but they didn't do anything with it. I mean he goes on this whole tirade about nothing on this earth can stop me, but then doesn't end up doing anything spectacular. I mean, usually in that kind of situation, the person uses tactics or ideas that their partner/foil wouldn't approve of or condone, because they're so on the edge because their partner's been hurt. Here, he just did what he normally did. A bit disappointing, really.

Torchwood:
What Jack was saying was that if these fairies destroyed the world like they were threatening to, there would be no more humans, and therefore, no more Chosen Ones. Their only chance is apparently to placate the fairies by giving them a child every now and then.
