Well, she looks completely different -- the only reason I recognized her at all is because she had her hair down in the death-ray ep. (Okay, actually it was DH who recognized her, and I looked her up on IMDB to confirm.)
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

I have info but need to know if it would spoil.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Colin, the Spoilers Thread would be the right place to gossip BSG spoilers. (There is general dispute as to whether someone speaking about his own show in the spoilers thread is spoiler-y, or just really really meta.)

You could always post safely to the "Spoilers 3: First Mutant Enemy, Now the World" thread.

Where are they on Lupo's BSG plotline?
At the end of last season, she was on New Caprica, teaching school with Roslin (and raising the baby).
Race you to the spoilers thread!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My god, Blade is graphic. That jaw thing? More palatable in Underworld Evolution. Not sure why. Also, last week's blood and sex scene--perversely sexual, taking TV vamp depictions into the fanfic realm.

Serial from an unofficial site:
Simon asks:
In the series we got to know two purebloods so far. I was wondering if purebloods grow up because on the one hand you have little Charlotte and on the other hand you have (or better had ) Damek who obviously is a grown up. Turned vampires seem to always remain the same but what’s with purebloods?
Thanks for the great question Simon. First, we’ve actually been introduced to three Pure Bloods (that we know of), Charlotte, Damek (who’s now ash), and Alex (who’s now some kind of vampire goo). Though there’s definitely been some good air time for the Pure Bloods, the show hasn’t really gone into much detail about what makes them so special (beyond being born a vampire rather than turned). Do they have special powers? Are they inherently more evil? Well, I have no idea on those two, but luckily Simon asks about their aging, which I do have an answer for.
Yes, Pure Bloods do grow up. I actually have a great quote from the writer Geoff Johns where he says “The physical signs of aging occur, but much more slowly. It can vary for Pure-Bloods. Due to actions or lifestyle they can stunt or spurt.” (from the official forums).
As you can see, the Pure Bloods do age, but they do so at an even slower pace than turned vampires. Simon brings up Charlotte, a great example, who is a Pure Blood that’s actually a little over 200 years old (which is young for a Pure Blood).
From this week's ep, Charlotte is Chase's age + 200 years. Not sure how old Chase is.

Can't be worse than the Blade parody from the Venture Brothers last night.

Didn't see it, so I can't compare, but it was CSI-level ick, with added aliveness. He ripped a guy's jaw off, and not only did we get to see the jawless wonder, but we also got a closeup of the jaw, along with flopping floppy bits.
Startled me, for basic cable. Last week's sex scene with Krista licking Marcus's wounds also startled me.
I may be getting old.

Ew. You win.
On the Venture Brothers, he ripped the fangs out of the vampire's mouth by hand, although not on camera.
Still, it's similar enough that it's kind of a weird coincidence.
