This is fun! I should TOTALLY have birthdays more often. :D (Even if I'm days late to collect my presents...)

wisteria_ wrote me a lovely gentle, intimate Kara/Lee ficlet.

And... so... this new S4 promo that's doing the rounds. How spoilery is it? Is it one of those things that's going to be totally everywhere and unavoidable anyway? *bites lip* I did end ( Read more... )

Hmm . . . I watched it and you know I stayed away from the Razor leak and all discussion about Razor like the bubonic spoiler plague. It's been my policy to watch promos. (I go with TWOP rules.) Plus, I watch TV occasionally and sometimes randomly a commercial comes on. I've never really felt spoiled by commercials. Teased mercifully yes, spoiled no.

It had tiny interviews but I don't think anyone said anything. If they did I didn't get it. (It did give me some speculation ideas but I could be wrong about those.) It's like the videoblogs. You can get what they're hinting at after the episodes air but at the time it's over your head. (I don't watch videoblogs while new eps are airing, either.) At least over my head and I like it that way. ;-)

I ended my subscription to TV Guide because it got too spoilery. TV Guide told me about the season 2 K/L Home 1 kiss, when Adama would 'kiss' Laura in season 2, but honestly I had forgotten when I actually watched the episodes was still genuinely surprised.

I'll watch the promo but not look at the Entertainment Weekly photo spread. I know, I'm weird.

Ir's different for me because I don't see commercials automatically--I have to download them specially. And honestly I've felt VERY spoiled by ads sometimes--not BSG ones, but for other shows.

Seems like some people feel this one's spoilery and other's don't, but as I'm pretty hardcore with spoilers, I'll be staying away. If I watched it, I'd be dissecting everything they said until I had my own theory... and that never ends well. I like going in blind.

TV Guide is lethal! *nods*

Promo photos I usually look at unless they contain casting spoilers I don't know about yet.

Bop, does that mean you never see any BSG commercials? Ever? That's sad somehow. The season 3 promo made me so excited in August '06 I could barely stand it. Eyeless Tigh! Kacey! Adama going back! That was awesome. And I still didn't know what was going on. Nothing was as it seems. That's BSG, for ya. Nothing is ever quite what it seems.

I miss it!

I saw one very small BSG S3 promo about a week before it aired. But no, apart from that I never see the commercials. People forget that those of us who view by dl don't get all the peripheral stuff. But I like the way I view--I come to it without expectation and I think I get more shocked by stuff as a consequence.
