Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, that last thing was chilling.

And the scene.

But "Mansqueeto" -- bwahahahaha! Who thought that was a good idea?

Do we have a thread name for the new thread? Or are we still arguing over the descriptor thingy?

Our wings are not tired

Mansquito.

You have GOT to be kidding.

That was a joke right?

SG-1 I really enjoyed. Fishbowl was a bit ho-hum, but giving all the speeches for the legions of redshirts already disposed of what kinda touching. I'd have loved to see an episode of the Original Star Trek with Kirk doing that.

I've not made up my mind about tonight's BSG.

Are other folks finding the Caprica City subplot a little tiresome?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I'm not seeing the point of the whole Caprica City subplot, so yeah.

Also, holy crap, was that bit with Baltar a watch-from-the-hall moment. I don't have a hall far enough away.

What happened? I missed the ep last night... was that a good thing to do?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Love this unintentional exchange:

Mansquito.

I liked last night's BSG. The funny was pretty funny, and the creepy was nice and creepy. I'm getting less and less patient with the Caprica storyline, though. I can sense that it's moving somewhere, but it needs to get there faster, or have more happen in the meantime.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I sorta get the sense that they're stretching stuff out to fit the 13 (or whatever) episodes this season. Yeah, more stuff should happen on Caprica. Maybe what's-his-face should suspect more the weirdness that is Boomer. (He did notice that she never seems to get tired, but hasn't seem to have done anything with that info.)

And I'm slightly annoyed that no one on Galactica really knows anything except for Baltar, who now seems to know who most of the Cylons are on the ship.

Am still afraid that Mansquito is not a joke. But then again, it's gotta be camp - the only question is whether it's the intentional or nonintentional variety.

There is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists.

Are other folks finding the Caprica City subplot a little tiresome?

I'm the exact reverse -- the Caprica City plotline is the only one that I'm interested in. Because those are the only characters I actually care if they live or die (well, except fleet-Boomer, and I'm pretty sure that's doomed). I know it's a well done show, and abstractly I can appreciate the fact that they've got gutsy women and rounded characters, but I wouldn't actually *care* if anyone in the fleet dropped dead at any time, and in some cases they are so grating (Baltar) or irrational (Adama) that I'd be downright cheerful. And Apollo is such a nonentity that despite having watched five episodes now, I still am not sure who he is when he shows up, until context is established.

There are moments when I connect (the president's ruthlessness with the Cylon, Starbuck's little prayer), but not consistently enough.

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

I really like Boomer, both of them. And Helo's hot. So Caprica only lags for me in that I couldn't even come up with the point. But the moments I liked, even if I didn't know the destination.
