So it’s Thursday, and we are somehow already over halfway through the month of July. Damn. But, on the bright side, today, I get to briefly discuss my favorite prophetic moment from Battlestar Galactica! I say briefly because I have to be at work in, like, two hours, and I haven’t taken a shower yet.…

Like “The Body” from Season Five of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, “Collaborators” is such a hard episode to watch. I can only torture myself with it once a year or so, and it’s probably the darkest the series every went. Basically, to recap, the Galactica rescues the humans stranded on New Caprica under Cylon occupation,…

And happy Tuesday to you all! I’m still recovering from my weekend of night shift, but I’m in good spirits for the most part. Today’s entry might be a bit short because I need to focus on my script and because I don’t want to give too much away about Day 30’s post, but let’s…

Somewhere in the middle of 2008, I made a friend that would be a constant for me for the next eleven years of my life. She was warm, bouncy, and had an underbite you wouldn’t believe. But she was perfect. Zola (or as she was registered, “Run Zola Run,” because I am a nerd) was…

I’m just going to get this out of the way: Season Three is a depressing season. I can’t expect television shows to constantly deliver me happy feelings (well, unless it’s Parks and Recreation), but damn, this season is rough. From the Death Squad in “Collaborators” to Starbuck’s apparent death in “Maelstrom,” I had a hard…

The Plan wasn’t necessarily my favorite because I, for one, do enjoy a bit of ambiguity in my storytelling. Knowing exactly why Leoben was obsessed with Kara Thrace doesn’t make it any less disturbing, and how does being shown who Caprica-Six met after talking with Baltar in the miniseries make me despise Cavil more (hint:…

The friendship between Caprica-Eight/Athena and Admiral Adama is one of my more favorite ones on BSG. It starts out rocky, since Adama has yet to get over being shot by Boomer (fair), but ultimately, she becomes his mentor and confidante. He tells her things he could not possibly reveal to anyone else, even Roslin, and…

Of all the seasons, the first one is the most rewatchable. The desperation of complete extinction is offset with this underlying hope that doesn’t necessarily exist, at least not as overtly, throughout the rest of the series. Genuine joy in the various victories is common in the beginning, whereas similar moments occasionally punctuate loss and…

This was most definitely a tie. I went back and forth with both* of these for a while but decided that, you know what, I don’t have to choose. This is my blog and my challenge! So without further ado, here you are: my favorite two scenes from the miniseries.

Considering that Season Two is my favorite season, I feel a little bad that my least favorite episode is in it. “Black Market” is awful. Even Ron Moore admits that he dislikes this episode. Because it’s awful. It’s the most ridiculous the show ever got, and yes, I’m putting it above the final season’s shenanigans.…
