| On the Viewer - Battlestar Galactica ("He That Believeth in Me") |
 by Fëanor |
While I'm talking Rehoboth, another thing I got to do there was catch up a little on my Battlestar Galactica by watching it online at the official website (God bless the TV stations for jumping into this whole online, on demand video thing; I don't know how I'd watch my TV shows otherwise). But only a very little. To put it simply, I managed to watch one new episode - the first of the new season.
The four people who were revealed to be Cylons at the end of the last season are still trying to deal with what they've learned about themselves. Baltar has been smuggled into a weird religious cult which worships him, and which is composed mostly of women. Of course he sleeps with one of them almost immediately, and maybe even starts to believe what they say about him. Meanwhile, the crew is trying to understand how Starbuck could be back, and she's trying to convince the fleet to leave its current course and follow her vague ideas about where Earth is. But the crew trusts her so little that she's beginning to doubt herself. And of course the episode ends on a crazy cliffhanger.
It's pretty great stuff. I particularly enjoyed the scenes with our four new Cylons, because that whole situation is so seriously effed up. The Baltar sequences were pretty great, too. Looking forward to catching up on the rest of the season... in two or three months, when I have free time again. |
