It's pretty easy to follow, MM. StuntHusband and I are the good guys, and we're struggling to foil the nefarious plans of the evil meatsacks.
Easy enough to understand.
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

Sure, sounds like...
WAIT A MOMENT! Cylons are just appliances with delusions of grandeur and nuclear weapons! Fuck you guys!
(If in response to this you feel the need to spoil seasons 4.5 and 5...dont. I will knife you in the groin no matter where/what gender you are.)

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
...what gender you are.
I think one is A/C and one is D/C.

I actually just finished watching the series a couple days ago and managed to stay unspoilt.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I managed to edit over this post. The gist: there are no interrupts, the check begins, Boomer is first to play.

We eagerly rub our little hands together. This will be EXCITING.

I need recommendations for a game: has to be playable by adults and smart teens. Limited reliance on luck. Can't take hours to play or be hard to learn.
A friend of Wallybee's has a teenager who sometimes comes over to play games. Some of the games we've played that have gone over well include:
Bohnanza (though you really need at least 4 players)
Traders of Genoa
Race for the Galaxy
Power Grid
Ingenious
Ticket to Ride
Of those, I would recommend Traders of Genoa first (I think it's now just called Genoa). The negotiation aspect can help keep everyone involved, and if they enjoy Settlers I figure they'll enjoy that aspect. I would also recommend Taj Mahal.

That would be quite an achievement given that there wasn't a season 5.
