challenges

I tend to stay clear of fandoms of shows I like because, yeah, they can be pretty toxic. People get offended about the weirdest stuff; I don’t like bacon, and I swear, I might as well have said I murdered puppies for fun. Basically, what I’m saying is I had to go look this shit…

Cylons are fascinating. They are just as varied as their human creators, both as standalone models and individuals, with their own motivations and personal drives. None can be called truly good or evil, although certain models do have a tendency to lean amoral (looking at you, Cavil), and I delight in watching them interact with…

Although I’m running the risk of starting with something that seems like a non sequitur, I loved Due South as a kid. It was such a wholesome show, and to this day, it holds a special place in my heart. Given that statement, a big reason as to who my favorite Cylon happens to be…

My loathing of Lee “Apollo” Adama* is well-known by anyone who talks Battlestar Galactica with me, and I do not apologize for it. He’s one of the most self-righteous, oblivious, childish, back-stabbing characters of the entire series. He spends most of his time trying to figure out a way to not be his dad, which,…

When most people hear that Kara “Starbuck” Thrace is my favorite BSG character, they aren’t surprised. I see so much of myself in her that it’s difficult to truly feel any anger at her when she does something that isn’t exactly constructive, and that empathy I have for her has only deepened as I have…

I’d like to say that I’d seen the promos and ads everywhere on the SciFi channel, that I’d waited for the very first episode with a lingering excitement that kept me up at night. But honestly, I’d never even heard of the show – the original or the reimagining – until nearly the end of…
-
Well, guess what … it’s time for another challenge! Like with my Buffy challenge, I’ve already done this on my old blog, but I wanted to revisit it … and give me an excuse to rewatch the entire series from the beginning. Again. What? I adore the shit out of this show, and honestly, I think I love…
-
I know I already finished this challenge, but I just got to looking at all the amazing fan art that has come from the listeners of The Adventure Zone and knew that I had to do a supplemental on it. The McElroys encourage their fans to come up with their own canon appearances of their characters, and…

Even though I ended my challenge a couple of days ago, I just can’t get enough of TAZ. So, this is a list that is literally just quotes that I frequently spout, apropos of nothing. Well, that’s not entirely true; I do understand context. Needless to say, most people don’t get that I’m actually quoting…
-
I just started writing the reboot of my own series, The Legion, and it’s A Process. Like … seriously. I think I have put so much more work into this go-round than I did the first time, and I was in no way slacking on that front. And while I’m still proud of the original novellas…
a little more juju
