random thoughts on bsg last night

there will be spoilers.


Yes. I liked the episode. I even like the time-jump (I don't have faith that things will get explained well, but I haven't EVER had faith in the BSG writers to be intelligent), and think it works logically in trying to move the story along.

You can't live as a ship in a bottle for three seasons without getting stale (see Star Trek and Stargate, to some extent).

Kara settling down and not flying? Very wrong, makes no sense. At all. Her marrying Anders? Yes. The not flying, though... Sadly, I'm sure we'll have a horrible, soap opera explanation for it involving Lee and angst. *eyeroll*

Zarek was not at Baltar's swearing-in ceremony. I watched the scene twice to determine it. I think he was on Cloud Nine. Which means he's dead.

Gina killed 15-20,000 people with her bomb, unless Baltar's been letting them die on the planet. (49, 505 at the start, iirc, 39,something occupying New Caprica). She took out five ships including Cloud Nine.

Six? Owned the scene in Baltar's office.

Dee's hair was very nice, and I liked the confidence she had. I'd also like to shriek about Ron Moore stealing my crack!fic idea, even if it was Sam Carter running Pegasus with Dee as her XO.

Hrm. I have fic to finish....

Also, can the Kara/Anders shippers get a Telkena of our own, please? I need someone to mock, and we're all kind of moderate and cute and gleeful now.
