Oh, and how fun that Dixon was a spy?
Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
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.
Did they bleep Adama early in the episode? I could have sworn he said something like "shitter" or somesuch, and they muted the word.
I didn't catch the context, but it stood out when the sound ended.
I enjoyed the episode quite a lot. People were acting like themselves. Well paced. Good balance of quiet and tension. Good stuff.
I think we'd be subconsciously (at the very least) dissatisfied with the idea that there's no large reward in a system that has such large penalties. But that's entirely metatextual reasoning for me.
Without metatext, the text can't work at all for me. You've got to be speaking a language I can comprehend, you know? If the language of the universe is Viking, ha-ha-you-lose, then I need to know that sooner than later.
They did bleep Adama.
I'm really happy that they showed a bit of what happened to D'Anna (sp?) Biers. I've been very curious as to whether she just stayed with the fleet and then joined the Cylons when they arrived or what. . . looks like they figured out she was a Cylon before that happened.
That threeway with Six and Baltar surprised me at first, but afterwards, I thought, well, of course she would!
I could have sworn he said something like "shitter" or somesuch, and they muted the word.
They bleeped "bullshit," yeah. I guess it must have slipped through S&P until the last minute, and they decided to go with bleeping instead of ADR.
Cylon sandwich!
I noticed that the invitation (announcement?) of the Medal Ceremony was rectangular rather than octagonal and then I noticed - in that scene where Tigh comes in to talk to Adama that he (Adama) has a stack of rectagonal documents on his desk as well as a couple of stacks of octagonal documents.
If the language of the universe is Viking, ha-ha-you-lose, then I need to know that sooner than later.
Aha. Me, I don't care. I'm willing to let it unravel, as long as it does so consistently.
It's like watching Daybreak. They may never tell us the why, and it looks like they're slowly spooling out some of the who. These aren't the rules of my universe, but I don't have to have it all now.
Of course, don't mistake this for any endorsement of the pacing/writing of Lost. That's a whole different scenario.
There's a Eureka marathon on the 23rd.
(What I want is dvd news.)
BTW, Adama wasn't bleeped "on demand" or on itunes.
