SFF: Well, it's Saturday Edition

BSG: Missed the first showing, taped Comedy Central instead of it at the second, and that third showing was a repeat of... Occupation. Squinty-vision, to the rescue.


It was a good, solid episode. Setting up more plot threads and tangling others, and outing Ellen. Which I expected. It's nice to see that when you do things for love, it bites you in the ass.

Sharon and Sam together was an interesting conversation, and I kind of love that he's so smart and kick-ass. This simply adds to the thought that he can keep up with Kara. He's not a stupid man, by any means.

The beer bottle was a nice touch, during Sharon's Walk of Doom.

AHAHAHAHAH.

"The last thing your son wants is me and Ellen for parents."

YES. Another chick marine sergeant. *smug* And she's smart, too.

Ok. That scene in the hangar deck, with the hugging and the line of sand? That is why I love this show.

Sharon. Yes. Yes. THAT was the kind of thing I needed. the faith, the "Adama wouldn't lie to me." Which is true.

Hah. And I'm back to Sharon. Grace Park really has got Sharon down nicely, and I really enjoyed her these last several episodes. But most especially when she shot cylon!Xena in the legs. YES.

And Sharon refusing to take her tags off. And Sam kind of getting it, 'cause he never took off Kara's. AND SAM ASKING HER to look for Starbuck.

Which, er, she might have.

Kara. Um... ok, then. (my fic is still canon) But this whole, "Look! I'm Domestic!" is kind of disturbing and wrong.

Chief, it should be noted, borrowed Sam's razor. He's much smoother now. And he tackled Cally.

ALSO. Seelix and the Cavil. And Seelix and the guns. And, and, the whole rescue in that canyon--one wonders what happened with the rest of the people to be executed.

Zarek and Roslin? FANFIC ON MY SCREEN. I kind of can't believe I wanted Zarek to die.

The baby subplot is annoying.

Can I remember the name of the female marine sergeant? No. But I can note that Racetrack and Kat were in the rec room together. If there is not femslash from that, I will be sad.

I'd also like to note, as alway, the large percentage of Women Doing Shit in this show. It out-weighs the Stargates massively. NCIS and one or two others are similar.

All in all, good episode. Not brilliant and NOT requiring of mockery.
