What's with the lack of discussion on Battlestar Galactica?

Anyway, this episode was pretty good. Not the greatest, but I was still sad to see Kat go. The more she acted like Michelle Rodriguez the more I disliked her, but I was glad someone would stand up to Starbuck. And she totally redeemed herself in the end by picking Helo as the one she wanted to save.

It's really unfair to the other cast members that Edward James Olmos gets to be such a great guy and all his mistakes are forgiven because, well, he's Admiral Adama, but others are stuck with problems like drinking (Tigh), being a bitch (Starbuck), and eating too many pork rinds (Apollo) that keep them less than perfect. But even though Adama may have started the war, he's still a god. But seriously, Adama kicks ass.

Speaking of gods, what was up with D'Anna's crazy portfolio of sketches? It reminded me of the drawings in The Ring where the kid scratches out everyone's faces and then obsessively draws those huge, black rings. I'm also glad to see that the threesomes between Baltar, D'Anna and Caprica are now nightly occurrences. If Baltar can't talk his way out of trouble, he always manages to fuck his way out.

Did anyone else think Kat and that hairy Isaac Mendez dude were two of the five unknown Cylons? I hope I wasn't the only idiot led down that path. But then again, this show breeds Communist-era panic, and every time I see a stranger, I'm convinced they're a Cylon until proven innocent.

I'm dreading next week. The final episode on Friday, with the exception of the Survivor finale, is the last show left for me before the dreaded mid-season break. And I have all my final exams the week after, and no new TV shows to reward myself with after I'm done! And God knows I'm not going to do anything outside. Blech!

I don't know why there's not more talk about this show. For my part, I spend way too much energy just trying to understand what's going on and I can't summon up the strength to get online and post anything about it. Plus, I didn't think anyone cared any more. With Double L gone and J-Unit too busy to post in the forums (we miss you, J!) it wouldn't have been fun "talking" by myself. I wonder if that's what other people are thinking, too. Anyway, let's get it started people! Make some sense of this shit!

Who's the hairy Isaac guy? Was he the one who played the creepy Replicator (Fifth) on Stargate? Is it creepy that I know that?

I know! Thank goodness for Netflix. Plus, I recorded the last five or so Jericho episodes on my computer so I guess I'll catch up on those.

Hooray! Someone else! I agree with how much energy it takes to figure out what's going on. It's quite the complicated show. I'm not quite sure who you're talking about, but I was referring to the guy with the long hair that was a drug runner with Kat.

It hasn't even been a week and I'm already forgetting what happened last episode. Looks like Adama is going to come face to face with D'Anna in the previews for the finale. Hopefully he kicks her ass.

Also, that reminds me of a question I never asked. From the boxing/flashback episode two weeks ago, do you think Adama and Roslin did it back on New Caprica? They were getting all snuggly and you could tell they both totally wanted to hook up.
