Thrive to spite them
It's worse than no socks on BG---Starbuck is now a woman. And her name isn't really Starbuck, that's her call name.
Although I can't really gripe because I'm being all fangirlly and watching BG because Callum Keith Rennie is in it. He's role can't be that big considering how far down the list he is in the credits and there are only four hours.

Ah, the lovely Katya. That was, in fact, the very story. Just as well I couldn't find it in time for me to read it before I left, because it was better to catch the plane. And now... for the relaxation. Wish I had beer and loud music and porn -- I feel the need to have an entirely I-don't-live-with-my-relatives bash.
Oh, except actually I'm not a frat boy. Keep forgetting. Right; wine, folk music, and erotica it is, then. And my cat, who missed me.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I saw footage of the new Starbuck having sex, and her spine glowed.
At least I *think* that's what the clip was from......

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The spine glowing chick is a Cylon.

Okay. Thanks ita, I was worried.

The spine glowing chick is a Cylon.
Is she played by Bai Ling?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The really odd thing about the new BG (aside from the humanoid Cylons and the female Starbuck) is that it takes 4 hours to get to where the original series began. (Colonies destroyed, Gallactica and remaining ships looking for Earth.) They've taken a voyage story and turned it into a war story. The reason, from what I've heard, is that Sci-Fi is half-considering the miniseries as a pilot for a new series. Which, honestly, just makes Farscape's cancellation hurt that much more.

I wonder, what percentage of the network's overall viewership is comprised of Farscape fans that might take umbrage at this?
