Battlestar Galactica Revival

I like Dr Baltar. I would be more like him if I could, but I could never be that way.

I am currently watching Battlestar Galactica 1980, it's pretty terrible!

I prefer to imagine that Baltar is played by Billy Mitchell.

for some reason i find most baltar scenes boring (except when he's actually learning stuff) - but he's outdoing tony soprano in the 'hateful dude gets mad fine bitches' stakes

first 15 mins were great, like the chief's new gruffer tone

he's got a lot of things on his mind to make him gruffer, that's for sure

it was ok

baltar has always been the best character

butttttt

baltar is "one of the best realized characters in film" ?!?!!!!!!

he's totally the comic relief too
which, uh, says a lot about how much of a lolcomedy this show is...
i'm into it getting darker and darker as it all comes to an end though, bring it

haha while we were watching the first 10 minutes, a friend of mine was like, so while the writers strike was on the fx guys just fucked around with new ways to make laser explosions eh
fully cheesy i guess but whatever it made me wish i had a huuge screen

xpost

does anyone think this ep's cliffhanger was anything but lame

lol yeah it's not like we don't know what's going to happen.

overall i thought it was a solid episode. but really i just want to get this season started and see where they go.

as IF starbuck's gonna kill roslin

srsly

also the tigh-killing-adama fantasy seq was so cheap

yeah, definitely.

i liked how angry and suspicious roslin was though. she's getting meaner.

I thought it was pretty good. Characters I dislike so far this season: Stabuck's husband (too whiney); Baltar cult cru (espesh the diseased kid); Tigh (fantasy Adama killin was lame).

was the sick kid a thing from prev season?

The boy's mother visited Baltar in the brig in the penultimate episode of season 3. She showed a photo of her son asked Baltar to bless him.

I loved the cheesy-ass shrine they had with Baltar's photo in it.

What about the son of the dude who attacks Baltar? Was there meeting shown previously?

their

fairly unimportant..but I was just wondering. I couldn't remember it.

I don't think the incident was shown. But iirc that guy was one of the "circle" members who were secretly throwing cylon collaborators out the airlock at the beginning of season 3 (after the exodus from New Caprica).

yeah, they've referenced his family before. loved baltar's babecult - manson overtones mixed in w/ the jesus.

Also, was Baltar's mental cylon girl ok with him shagging the cult girl?

Maybe I shd rewatch some season 3.

yes.

I could swear that awesome line "You're the PRESIDENT'S WETNURSE" is some sort of an Adama callback from earlier in the series...

good episode i thought, they kinda saved the 'omg starbuck gonna kill the prez' cliffhanger w/ 'basically, women are crazy'. loved loved loved the cylon schism.

needs more stuff blowing up and less emo now

this show is not what it used to be. :(

i dunno, i thought it was a decent ep. when has the show not been emo?

the 70s lol
