No Takebacks

Just got here...Papadama's getting taken to sickbay, we've got our first sight of Mrs Bamber, and now it's time for Bill's really bizarro 70s haircut in flashback.

From:

Hi. My DVD is just loading so I'm a little behind.

From:

Awwww, poor baby!Lee all covered in blood and in the brig missing his daddy :(

From:

I just realised that I never saw these episodes from the dvd. Strange. Also, I strongly approve of the longer intro.

From:

Crap... I'm trying, but my dvd is playing up. Keeps rewinding. Damn it... effin' load!!!

From:

Cool flash-back scene. and interesting shouts from Lee.

btw, Kelly just reappeared. I don't recall seeing him in a long while.

From:

I hope it will work in the end.

From:

I feel so bad for Boomer here. She's the only person in BSG who has worse self-loathing issues than Kara, and whose story is even sadder in some ways. *sigh*

From:

all that blood. Always feeling guilty for finding it so hot.

From:

Come on Tigh - you are in charge for 5 minutes and you manage to get lost from the Fleet?

From:

Nope. It's not my disk. It's my DVD. It's over a decade old. *Sigh* Think I am going to have to play this one from memory cos it'll kill the PC I'm using if I try to do both a once.

From:

Gosh, I <3 Boomer so much.

From:

Gaius just makes me laugh. and then the Tighs. oh, Ellen, Ellen, Ellen.

From:

omg Baltar and his special brand of crazy (aka Six) again.

Complete with white sfx crib and really creepy-looking disembodied baby fingers.

I love how freaked-out he looks by the idea of being a dad. (and also how much he tries to cover that up). First it was jealous!Six last week and now it's baby-crazy broody Six.

From:

"I did it for nothing".... Lee, you little idealistic fool. But that makes you that shinning beacon of hope that Romo will speak about.

From:

Other things I love: Cally's annoyed face. (Nicki Clyne, like everyone else on this show, looks really pretty covered in dirt and sweat).

From:

First it was jealous!Six last week and now it's baby-crazy broody Six.

yes, we are treated with all sorts of Six. very, very interesting sides of her.

and yes on the creepy side of that scene.

From:

They must of had a special type of test for that. Looking good with dirt and blood all over.

From:

It also makes me want to ruffle that ducks'-arse bit of hair sticking up from the front of his head.

From:

Oh hey, Seelix!

From:

And Sharon just stole the Raider. on a side note, strange to see Helo after yesterdays episode of Fairly Legal.

and Kerry's accent. I remember that i didn't noticed it the first time around.

From:

Sixes have such scope for characterisation.

From:

great, now starts Crashdown's slippery slope to being a really bad leader.

From:

well, that is sort of a given. especially in this type of scenes.

From:

Some people should really stay away from command positions. he should have stayed with his regular job as "finder of things - water, planets, stuff"

From:

Hard not to notice, Kara's so badly beaten-up she looks like she's wearing a moustache of blood. (and yet Katee's face stops me from finding this funny somehow)

From:

lol Tigh with hair

From:

OH, Dee trying to cheer Gaeta. so, so, sweet.

And Kelly, go back to where you were before this.

again, cool flash-back.

From:

I really don't understand how future!Athena can keep insisting she is really Sharon when she knows that the memories are Boomer's and (as she keeps insisting, so often) she isn't the same as Boomer. This "I remember" BS is annoying when you're not the one in whose head the memory was formed in the first place.

From:

yeah, I love Gaeta and Dee's friendship. (and his geeky little thing with the soap bars, awwww)

From:

oh yeah. I'm just at the scenes with his cool programming skills.

From:

I love space battles, and even if Lee doesn't luuurve being in a Viper I love seeing him in one.

From:

SSWA. And I do believe that he secretly likes it. Not like Kara (and Kat) but he does.

From:

that Centurion waking up at the end of the episode is like from a horror movie scene.

From:

I know, you can't get that good at something without liking it (Hand of God? Our boy enjoyed himself there, and I think he really does like flying. Maybe not love it to the same degree as Kara - and even she was able to quit - but he likes it all right)

From:

ack, yes. Those red eyes especially....(makes me want to go and watch the Alien movies now, those are tops for space horror)

From:

At the end of this episode I want to ask you a question. In two weeks due to Eastern family drama I'll not be able to be online for the rewatch so I was hoping for suggestions from you. So far I have
- posting the thread a couple of hours earlier and then leaving you all with it
- having the rewatch in the same day but a little earlier (a couple fo hours)
- having a double episode rewatch one week before or after

or maybe - one of you might host it?

anyway, I hope you have a great weekend and I wait your opinions.
