I fell in love with Kara the same time I fell in love with Lee - when I first saw in March 2008 33's scene by the viper. OMGs, the two of them, together + separately, I just couldn't believe I was seeing characters like these on the screen. I had never shipped before (I remember looking up the term "shipper" at urbandictionary.com to figure out what it was on the skiffy K/L thread). I've wondered why I cared so passionately about them. I've come to the conclusion that for me it was their individual combinations of foibles and fierceness that made me so mesmerized by Kara and Lee, but especially Kara as I'd never seen a character like hers before on the screen. And I think there's some kismet there because it's Katee's portrayl of Kara that is so addictive for me.
Imagine for the proverbial moment that Jamie and Katee were cast in opposite roles. Kara as a female Apollo, daughter of the Admiral, and Jamie as Starbuck (a year 2003 version of Richard Hatch's character). They're still best friends & in love & denying it & saving the fleet and Mary McDonnell's collective asses, but wow, that'a different show for me at least.
It's the one-year anniversary of the finale (which I detested for many, many reasons not the least of which is the *poof*) and I'm already imbibing. Let the weekend begin!
