sff: stupid weather keeps changing edition
DW: Voyage of the Damned: Blessedly free of "all women must fall in love with the Doctor or they are incomplete beings".
BSG 'The Ties That Bind': Well. At least Kara and Sam aren't wearing matching bracelets.
DW was cute and fluffy and things exploded, and the adorable first mate boy survived. 's all good. Kylie was short and adorable.
Her death scene, however, was shot by Ron Moore.
As was that ridiculous flying angel crap. *eyeroll*
Luckily, they got back to being light and fluffy after that by punching the floor.
Also, way to retread Robots of Death, guys. ANGELS DO NOT MAKE THEM LESS CREEPY.
BSG. If you actually think this show is the best SF ever, or the best TV? You're reading the wrong journal. At its best, it's entertaining crack with a complete lack of continuity and coherence. At its worst (Unfinished Business, Maelstrom, Woman King, Pegasus) its utter shit that has no business being lauded.
FURTHER, there will be no Cally OR Tory bashing on this livejournal. If I catch you at it, I'll be utterly disappointed in you, you fucking asshole.
1. It's a pity Nicki Clyne turned in a brilliant performance, considering this was the end for her.
2. Man. Female on female violence. Who says that's cliche? (REMEMBER TO SAVE THOSE BABIES, GIRLS. OTHERWISE BOYS WON'T LIKE YOU)
3. The retconning of the Tyrol marriage (portrayed up until now as pretty healthy, despite the whole him breaking her jaw thing) is Red Cap WTF worthy. This is definitely a "wait, Burns has a crush on Jo?" level of OMGWTFness.
4. I think Lee and Zarek were being devils and angels. Or something. I don't know, I had it muted.
5. CYLON CIVL WAR OF SHINYNESS. Even if it's a season later than they said it would be. Downloaded was when THEY PROMISED ME A CIVIL WAR. Nice of them to finally remember their own fucking canon and deliver.
6. How much do I love Cally being smrt and worming her way into the wall? And even more, Tory, being shorter than the boys, notices the wacky wall thing...
7. Cally taking Chief down with the wrench = AWESOMESAUCE.
8. Speaking of awesomesauce. HI COTTLE, I LOVE YOU. STOP LETTING CALLY STEAL YOUR SMOKES.
9. And, of course, Dad reading (horribly) to Mom. Adorable.
10. It's just a pity Tory's characterization is thrown out so they can use her like a skeleton key when they need to. I'm sorry BSG sucks at logical characterization, Tory, but you're stuck in this cookie-cutter replaceable world. :/
11. I see Kara and Sam have regressed to Collaborators. Of course, this time, when Kara says "I wanna hurt you, Sam" he says, "Ok! Yay! I like pain!" Sometimes, I wonder if the writers live in some sort of married hell--none of them seem to be able to let anyone in a marriage progress or grow. They're always going back to the way they were and never moving forward. It's really boring.
12. That said, it's amusing that Sam's sexual prowess makes Kara chatty. "Hey, baby, that deep dicking just makes me wanna talk about my mama who hit me with frying pans..."
13. No, actually, I didn't mind the Kara/Sam scene. I just wish I hadn't written it four or five times before this.
14. Does this mean we can now call Kara and Sam Ellen and Saul now, though? Because that was totally IloveyouIhateyoulet'sfrak Tighishness. Kara even scratched at Sam before he pinned her.
15. On a purely shallow note, TRUCCO IS DAMN TALL. His hairy leg in the bed there, man. Sheeeeesh. SO TALL. I'm surprised he fit in that thing.
16. Kara has cushy quarters, though. I had no idea the bunks on a sewage recyke ship would be so spacious and fab. Here I was, picturing cramped and smelly places. And paint! In all colors of the rainbow (I think she and Sam must've paused during their rough hate sex to put it on the floor so they wouldn't knock it over, since, y'know, all those open cans were on her bed)
17. Oh OH. PLAYA IS STILL ALIVE. And her hair is longer! YAY.
18. And, lest I forget them, HI HELO AND YOUR MANLY SWEATY ARMS. And Seelix and Athena! Whoot! Also, Sparky. Who obviously is not getting any, and thinks everyone is INSANE, and is wishing when Adama suggested he go that he'd said Dee should go instead. (also, VIPERS. MY FIC CAN SO BE CANON NOW YAY)
19. Boomer is... lost. And sadly uninteresting. Sigh. I do think she might swing back the other way, since she wants a soul.
