I figure that I should put down a couple of my ideas from last week's BSG episode before I see tonight's.

( Spoilers for 'The Hub' )

How long's the mid-season break, anyone know?

Tonight's BSG episode was truly awesome ( spoilers for 'Guess What's Coming To Dinner' (and what sort of title is that, anyway?) )

On another note entirely, before BSG started we caught the tail end of Doctor Who — now, I don't watch the show, and I'm told that it's much better if you actually watch more than the last five minutes of an episode like we've done for the past few weeks, but here's an approximation of our take on tonight's episode:

*watching a woman in a weird bath thing* Oh, so that's how they make cylons!
*two seconds later, as a copy of the woman comes out of another bath exactly in the fashion of a resurrected cylon* Wait, no, seriously, that actually is a BSG reference, isn't it?
Ha ha, and that guy with the really fat head is like a Centurion without his helmet on! That's what's under the helmet!
*half a minute later* Wait, they're actually called Centaurons?

Someone who actually watches Doctor Who as well as BSG, tell me: Was the blatant intertextuality intentional?

Oh, and I liked it. :)

I've decided that the BSG swear word "frack" should be considered to be derived from the Latin frango, "to break." It totally works.

Two part episodes are evil. I'm just saying.

( And a quick comment on this week's actual episode... )

What did I think about the new BSG? Gosh. Well, I'll have to be brief as I should already be asleep. ( Spoilers for the first episode of 3.5, whatever the number is )

All right, I seem to have devolved into mostly wittering, so it's sleepy time.

I finally watched the season 3 premiere of BSG, just in time to not see tonight's new episode, because I don't know anyone in Berkeley who watches it. Well, wageslave and David watch it, but wageslave was going over to Elias' to watch it, and Elias gets it an hour earlier than anywhere else on the west coast, unfortunately. So I'm relegated to waiting until it's available online. *is impatient*

While I wait for some kind soul who maybe watched it three hours ago on the east coast to upload it to the internets the bittorrent to download Friday the 13th to be over so that maybe I'll actually have some success at obtaining a copy of the frakking episode, I shall ponder the premiere, which americanbeetles and I watched projected onto a large screen in all its awesomeness. Oh yes, it was lovely to behold. :)

I don't suppose anyone miraculously has an invite to demonoid, which just successfully failed to work for me three times in a row so that now I can't use it?

ETA: And indeed, now that it is no longer Friday the 13th, there are suddenly and miraculously other sources for downloading!
