Yeah, didn't we already know about most everything we saw? They'd already told us about all the stuff that happened on Pegasus, right?
Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) 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.
Beau said that he had the sneaking suspicion that half of "Razor" was extras from the Pegasus episodes that they decided to cobble together with an additional plot.
I think this is much more negative and cynical than my take, but I can kind of see where he is coming from.
Huh, Beau could be right.
I'll wait until I've seen the "extended" version on the DVD.
I finally watched Razor last night. I also failed to recognize Gina, other than a "hey, she seems familiar" sort of way.
I really liked seeing Lee and Kara together before things got so weird between them and I didn't miss Baltar at all. (Sorry, P-C.)
Having said that, I thought the Cain/Gina thing helped explain why Gina was treated so poorly, but I was very bothered by how far Cain was willing to go (massacre, shooting XO, etc.) There's a difference between hardcore and psycho.
I didn't miss Baltar at all. (Sorry, P-C.)
I kept waiting for Baltar to show up and he never did! Boo.
Okay, so I guess I'm still bothered by Adm. Cain (Caine? Kane?) and her decision to kill those civilians. But even more than that, I'm bothered by Adama's "well, we weren't there, we can't judge" attitude at the end.
Her decision was *nothing* like the issue with nuking the Cylon ship - she sent her soldiers to kill fellow humans when her own ship was only 25% manned.
There's a difference between hardcore and psycho.
Finally watched last night too. Yeah, it went beyond hardcore in my book. But we were there, and Adama wasn't and I understood his stand. She had gone off the deep end, but Adama interest in protecting her in history came from a self-preservation place. Judge not...
The Cain/Gina was odd in that it felt forced to me and not integrated well enough. Sounds good enough in theory, but they didn't make me believe it.
It wasn't stellar, but it was good to hear the lovely BSG music and see all those nummy faces again. Bit of BSG fix is better than none.
I watched Torchwood! Excellent snoggage there.
Also, any episode where Owen gets shot is always a highlight. It's so aggravating that his emotional arc is the one driving the end of the season! Dear Ianto: Call me! Love, Nora
I would have loved to have been in on the Razor W&P but I was out of town and didn't watch til latish last night.
Naturally, the first thing I did this morning was get out the season 2 (2nd half) dvds and try to figure out when this happened:
Population at beginning of Epiphanies - 49, 598. Population at beginning of Razor - 49, 579.
But wait - it had to have happened after Black Market, right?
And now we know that BSG is back in March. Thank goodness we'll have the 2nd series of Life on Mars and Torchwood to keep us busy 'til then.
I watched Torchwood! Excellent snoggage there.
Yes. And oh, my, yes.
