I finished watching Battlestar season 2 now.



It's still not quite as good as Firefly, IMO. But I still really like the series. Some plot issues get tied up a little to nicely, I think. But the story line is really good. I was confused with Laura's sudden blood lust in Pegusus. And I'm really, really pissed off that Billy was killed. I like him. Reminds me of them killing off Alex on Roswell. I like the sorta geeky smart boys. I also am really not a fan of Giaus at all. The only time I liked the character was when he was the figment of 8's imagination, or whatever they are doing with that.

Also, ended kinda crappy, I think. I hope season 3 picks it up and makes it kinda positive.

if you didn't like the ending...you won't like season 3, and if you don't like gaius you won't like season 3, and if you don't like people dying, you definitely won't like the first four eps of season 3...

The ending just seemed so depressing. Not the Cylons coming back, but the life they were all living before that.

I've heard about the gaius overload for season 3, I just hope (and don't spoil me please) that his life sucks, than I'll feel better.

Dying is fine, just not my favorite person every time. ;)

Yeah...life's like that sometimes. Course, I love gaius and I...got tired of Billy and I understand COMPLETELY why they killed him off, considering.

Of course, for me, BSG is *easily* the best SF series of the best decade...and probably one of the best TV shows all up.

And I know your views on Firefly, so we can happily agree to disagree :D

I was bummed about them offing Billy too, I think they should've found him a nice hot pilot boy to shack up with. ;) My golden rule of TV is never kill off the pretty boys. And Gaius. Oy vey. I can't fucking stand him, but I don't then again, I don't think you're supposed to like him, so that works with me. He starts to get a bit of what's coming to him in season 3 which I am enjoying very much. He's like the one person on the show I am waiting for to get keeeeeeeeeeeellled. lol

It is pretty damn dark series though possibly even more so, to the point by where I am up to, in series three... you wonder at times who you should be rooting for to win...

How can you not like Gaius!? Gaius is LOVE. Gaius is..probably me in ten years, oh dear.

I just don't like how he's so lucky (to survive). If it wasn't for the pretty girl in his head he'd have bought it early on. But it's OK that you like him, this way we don't fight. :)

Like I was telling B, they always kill off (or get rid of) the cute geeky boys, which are the ones I usally like. I don't mind dark, as long as there is something pretty to look at

Season 3 has renewed my faith in the show (the second half of S2 flogged the living frakk out of my enjoyment), though still tenuous in spots. I won't spoil you too much, but they start making Gaius more interesting at the same time they make his life the living hell he deserves. They start fleshing out half of the supporting cast big time in season 3, and the Lee/Kara thing just keeps getting more *wah wah wah*. You should still like it though. :) I'll hook you up with the Resistance webisodes as well.

I'd love to know more about Geata, he seems cool. Or some of the Pegasus crew. And Starbuck is hot too, so I can handle Lee/Kara. Though that makes me think that they offed Andres now too. Stupid tradject deaths of cute boys...

w00t webisodes!
