A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
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.
I adored BSG when it first came out, but then the family drama started and I couldn't handle both BSG and Mom's chemo at the same time. Which doesn't take away from the show one little bit, but I do think the viewer context has to be right for it.
I love Boa vs. Python ! Hee.
Me, too. I broke down and bought the DVD when I saw Amazon had copies for under $2*. (Well, plus $6 or so shipping. Still that's less than $10 for cheesetastic roaring-snake glory.)
*And now it looks like the lowest price is $2.40. Still, not bad.
I never liked Baltar, but it's gotten to the point that any ending that doesn't involve his being drawn and quartered will be unsatisfactory to me.
Ginger is me. absolutely. The highlight of the "10 things you need to know about BSG" was how little Baltar they featured. I absolutely cannot stand Baltar. There is no redemption arc for him in my eyes. I just want Roslin to kill him.
I think the show is very grim. I guess I don't really mind that, but I wish plotting had been tighter. The final 4/5 and Starbuck as angel (or whatever the fuck she is) feels like an asspull to me.
I respect BSG more than I enjoy it, and I think a lot of that has to do with the grim tone.
This is my reaction; much like what I had to the bulk of Buffy Season 6. Well-written, well-acted, good production values, utterly joyless.
Maybe if Ron Moore threw in a musical episode, I'd watch regularly.

oh ha! :-)
I enjoy the story and I don't mind the darkness. It makes moments when that are less dark really stand out.

Oh my. Maybe as a DVD extra.
I have to say, I do find BSG tremendous fun to watch. The plot is grim, yes, but it's so operatic that the grimness doesn't bring me down.
I would pay cash money to see a musical episode.
Me, I like the dark. I am, however, very tired of whiny Lee and crazy Kara. They have been the most ill-used characters in my book.
I wish they could find more for Dee to do, now that she is not shackled to Lee anymore.
Joss talks Dollhouse.
I agree about Dee. . . and given that I think Gaeta must have a pretty decent storyline (moving on from the webisodes) I hope that they have done the same for Dee.
