Battlestar Galactica tonight
Season 4 - the end of it all - starts tonight. Against my better judgment I am excited for it. TV has been so utterly disappointing lately, and even if BSG is half crap it;s leaps and bounds ahead of most other stuff. Plus...CYLONS. And Six. And Starbuck. And the Old Man.
Also, I want this
:
But I’m too fat to own one. For now. This time next year I will buy any god-damned stupid webernets geekery t-shirt I god-damned well feel like because I shall fit in them, you fat-ist intertube bastards.
Anyway, I’m excited about it. Is what I’m trying to say. And I love the latest theory that the “Adama is a Cylon” thing from way back? It’s true. And it’s not Bill or Lee. It’s Zack. That could go in a few directions that could either result in the redemption/saving of Kara Thrace, or bring about a break with reality and cause her destruction, by which I mean death. If it is Zack - the only man she has ever truly loved - then he either convinces her that human/Cylon breeding is required to save both races and so she calms the fuck down and accepts it (unlikely), or she loses her shit and cause so much drama and destruction along the way that someone, probably Lee acting on the Old Man’s orders, has to kill her (much, much more likely).
I really love the Zack theory. It makes so much sense, and would work so well with the story as it already exists. It doesn’t have to be retrofitted.
See? I must be excited. I’m rambling on and on about possible theories again. Fracking Battlestar. Just when you think you’re out…
*UPDATE*
Forgot what was going on? 8 minute recap:

Man, Jim, you have a level of going crawling back for more abuse that I’ve only seen in battered women and comic book fans.

Hi. My name is Jim, and I’m a serial-a-holic.
(HI JIM)
It all started when I read my first comic. It was a Batman book, not sure what issue but it had to be somewhere in 1974-1975. I had to know what happened next. Then one of my friends showed me a Marvel book. OH MY GOD you have to be kidding me. This shit is so cool. No way can this stuff come out every month? Really? And all I have to do is talk someone into buying them for me? What? I can steal them?
And that was the beginning of my life as a media pirate.
Now I can’t stop. I still watch CSI Miami for fuck’s sake.
;)

Battle-frackan-Star Galactica...I have a reason to get out of bed.
Speaking of CSI: Miami, or “Shields of Justice” as we call it, how far fetched was that last episode? Holy cow...Kidnapping a CSI to make the crime not connected to you? WTF are you gonna do with the CSI afterwards? So 2 felonies cancel each other out? Sheesh…
But much better than the “Assasin for Hire” story on CSI New York. That made most of “Painkiller Jane” look steller.

Pretty much what I expected. Nothing gets resolved except for the pressure in Baltar’s ballsack. But I do like that they seem to be turning Baltar into an (unintentional) Obama parody. My “big twist” prediction: Starbuck isn’t the 12th Cylon.

Oh, and good lord - is there anything less funny than a Dave Letterman top ten list?

I almost forgot, thanks for reminding me. Although I hate sci-fi’s new idea for format: “Let’s only have new episodes for one show at a time.”
