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!
Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

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.

My god, Blade is graphic.
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.

A couple of weeks before that Jessica Gower had a nude scene that I would have expected from an HBO or Showtime series. If only they'd gone equal opportunity while Kavan Smith was right there...

Hmm. The vampire whose jaw got ripped off had been plucking teeth from nubile chicks and attaching them to his mask--also off camera.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Tom, if I read the Venture Bros. white font, will it make me need a whole bottle of vodka in order to watch? Or just feel like I've powerslammed one after I have watched?

OK, the Blade stuff is just gross. Ew, ew, ew.
