At least tonight's was a good episode - the right balance of wrapping some things up and opening up new cans of worms.

But 2008?!!?!?!

I assume one would need a TV to get this thread? (I have a TV, but I still don't know what show you're talking about.)

Is it true? It's true, isn't it? Aughaughaughaugh.

(And this is about BSG, for those who are mystified. And I will refrain from spoilers, but, omg.)

ROT13d spoilers follow. If you can read ROT13d text with your eyes, you shouldn't have learned to do that.

There was an interesting interview with Ronald Moore on Salon over the weekend. In the fall there will be some mini-episodes or something to hold people over until the new season next year.

Oh gods help me! I haven't seen it yet. But...there's not a new episode until 2008? I'll be, like, OLD by then!!

(And right now I'm wearing my fracking toaster t-shirt.)

So who's the Cylon, Bob Dylan or Jimi Hendrix?

posted by octothorpe 25 March | 22:23

Eh. This season has been really schizo, going up and down in quality. The finale matched that general trend and leaves me wandering if they're smoking the same stuff the Lost writers smoke. They might need all that time to clean up the mess.

"And this is about BSG..."

So, what, pray tell, is BSG?

Nah, wendell, that's due to total system purge.

posted by mischief 25 March | 23:52

I thought it was pretty decent. They still have me hooked and Lost lost me (ha ha) in the first half of this season. I like Dresden fairly well too, nothing on par with BSG but it least it gives me a fairly decent fantasy show to fill the Buffy/Angel void.

Personally, I think the show “jumped the shark” two episodes ago.

So this episode came as no surprise. Though I like how the series has consistently managed to not go were I was hoping it would go.

Heh. I just finished "Downloaded" ... no, I shouldn't even have peeked in this thread. Thanks for the ROT13!
