Crossroads p.1

[lizardbeth]

- that opera house/theater sure is PURTY.

- new credit sequence, interesting

- Sam really is a nugget? BWAHAHAHA! Still not gonna fit all that in a Viper cockpit, no matter how much he might want to. But hi, Seelix. (so does this mean Sam had to sit an exam and an interview like she did? Because that I want to see..."yes, I really want to be a pilot. Why? because... See the Tattoo? TAKE A FRAKKIN GUESS, MORON!")

- that prosecutor chick is rocking so far. (I should point out that while training makes me able to see both sides, I have a professional bias for "the People", so it's not surprising at all that I think this! *g*) But she's prosecutorial -- not a grandstander like the defense gets to be.

- messiah!Baltar. "Mind how you go". *chortle*

- Caprica whacked Tigh! hee.

- Tigh could've pointed at Sam at the person who 'ordered' her death, since he basically did, but he didn't. But oh Saul, you should've shut up after you said you killed her.

- oo, civilian!Lee. Lee in a tie cracks me up. This is the 'turning against Laura' bit from the spoilers obviously. And why Dee leaves him. But since there are others who saw the death warrant attacking her credibility here isn't going to do a lot of good. If the Six on Caprica thing were going to be brought in, yes, but this? only in a very general sense. But still he had to bring it up, he's right.

- that cut to Helo when she mentioned Hera was a perfect reminder

- HELO IS XO (again)! (for this week and maybe next, but still....) Poor Helo has to look at the roster every day to see where his duty station is supposed to be.

- and the Cylons are out there, following them, and almost killed Racetrack and Skulls! YAY! (I mean, for the Cylons being all menace-y, not the 'track dying, because that would piss me off)


in sum, I like the set up for part 2.

I think I missed the part about Sam becoming a Nugget because I was discussing blood sugar meters for my cat with my mom, but I have to say of the commentaries I've read, I 100% agree with you (and some of the others I've read). :)

You know, I used to LOVE, LOVE, LOVE BSG... but lately, I feel like we need Dr. Phil to slap some sense into Lee Adama, Bill Adama and Laura Roslin. I mean, doesn't it get old?

Lee and Bill have a hissy fit. Why is Bill Adama sitting on the tribunal. conflict of interest, anyone?

Laura is having her own messiah delusions.

And I'm sorry, I have to confess this. Bill Adama/Saul Tighe are so slashy it's pathetic.

Can't wait until the 4 cyclons are revealed - though I read the spoilers. Just makes me anticipate it more. Though considering how much sex most of them were having, I'm surprised there weren't any glowing backbones seen before now. :D

So why do you think the 5 cyclons are those of which they do not speak?

I liked the ep a lot too and can't wait until next week. I *really* liked playful Sam in this episode. I think I may have to go hide in a cave to avoid spoilers this week. I'm not really a spoiler-phobe, but I think that I would have liked Rapture and Maelstrom more if I hadn't been spoiled. So, I'm taking the "don't read" approach this time around.

I just don't think the 4 of the five we are going to see, are clones like Sharon or Caprica. I think they are something different. Remember Tigh has been with Bill, for what, 40 years.

I think Bill is starting to have a drinking problem.

Help is like the go to guy, but I guess its cheaper then highering a new actor and it gives him more to do.

i think they did the credits that way so they could shove as much into the show as they could without wasting time on the credit sequence.

also, i'm starting to think tigh is a cylon. a totally bugfuck one though :)

Did they ever say how much time passed between this ep and the previous one? It must've been a while, since Sam's leg is all healed and he's now a nugget. I wish we could see him join the Fleet, though I think he'd be a better Marine. But he misses his Kara, so it's cool... I miss her, too.

And apparently the Adamas really can't function as a family without her. They're both so crazy now. And where did Lee get such a nice suit so fast?
