Okay, so it’s Monday again (how?), and I’m exhausted (because of course); guess what that means!! Today is going to be a super short entry. It’s pretty helpful, though, that the answer to this challenge day is incredibly easy: Anastasia Dualla and Lee Adama. She looks like she’s questioning every decision she’s ever made, and

I’m going to admit something I really don’t like admitting because … well, it makes me feel all squishy inside: I really love seeing new romance bloom. Like, I hate those Hallmark movies that get released around Christmas because they are so stupidly unrealistic, but a well-told romance story with instant attraction and longing glances

Well, I am just loving all the hard topics I’m covering this week. Jesus. Why did I do this to myself? Trigger warning again, you guys, for talk of rape and sexual assault. From the second the Pegasus crew is introduced, the writers of BSG wanted us to dislike them. The CAG was a complete

I’m going to preface this with a trigger warning for talking about suicide, so please feel free to skip past this one. I actually argued with myself while picking the most upsetting death because this definitely fits the bill there, but I actually think this moment is more appropriate for this post because damn, I

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

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
