snick_backup: (BSG)
I've hit a lull with BSG, but I still really want to finish it. I may not care about hardly any of the characters anymore (except Helo/Athena, whose development seems to be over), but I still want to know the deal with the Cylons, and I want to see if the ending is disappointing as everyone says it is.

However, I need some help getting motivated, which is where you come in. It is time to tell me what really happens in the last season and a half. Does the Galactica stumble across a small Firefly-class scavenger, with a crew that tells them mournfully of Earth-That-Was? Do Adama and Roslin ditch this sorry mess and go back to New Caprica to build that cabin? Does Tom Zarek become the savior of the human race? Does (unlikeliest of all) Gaius Baltar grow a backbone?

Notice that you don't need to have actually seen the show to tell me The True Story.

For your reference, this is where I am and what I know: )

ETA: I'm temporarily skipping a couple of eps in my review series. I have enough to say about "Houses of the Holy" and "Born Under a Bad Sign" that I'm going to have a rewatch and post the reviews then (probably during S3, when I'm back on the Netflix method and am in withdrawals between disks *g*).

Warning: review contains vague spoilers for significantly later in the series.

So, Goldenusagi, about that janitor )

In general: this season I'm getting progressively more irritated with how often killing things is our solution to just about any problem. Werewolf is worried about killing more people? Shoot it. Folks infected with a demonic virus? Forget about restraints or containment; shoot them on sight. Sam might be evil? We should probably shoot him, too. Would-be sex offenders dying? Naturally, it'd makes sense if their murders were a form of divine intervention. A bunch of people are dying deaths straight out of Weekly World News? Yeah, well, they deserved it.

I'm about fed up with immediate execution as a solution to all problems. Half the time it doesn't even make sense.

------

I will say this, though: it's been nice getting away from the angsty arc of angst for a bit. I was bit concerned that we were going to drown in the stuff.

I just posted my [livejournal.com profile] seasonal_spuffy contribution, the latest installment in my series of post-apocalyptic Spuffy mpreg vignettes. This one's the earliest in the chronology that I've posted so far.

I meant to write the pre-mpreg fic for this round of SS, but that fic didn't come together in time. However, there may be a follow-up vignette to this one ready in time for Free-For-All Day in May.

And Don't Let Go
