Battlestar Galactica

Okay, y'all knew I'd be writing someone about the fall finale of BSG! Especially after that episode!

I just want to preface it by saying something about why I feel what I feel about characters:

I sort of treat characters as if they were real, if I knew them in real life, would I like them? And I base my feelings like that. If I knew Starbuck in real life, would I like her? Not really, no. That explains my detached feelings for her until...


...Now! When I was about to watch "Unfinished Business", I had a feeling that I would really hate Kara for whatever she did to Lee. Not because I love Lee, but because I already had very lukewarm feelings for Kara and this just wasn't going to put her in a good light.

And yet, I didn't hate her. I loathed the actions she took, and yet, not her. I've come to the conclusion that what it is, they used to try and excuse her actions and behavior. They tried and let us know why she was doing what she was doing and I kept disliking her more and more. So when they stopped making excuses for what she was doing, I started to get her more. It's weird, I know.

So that brings us to last night where we see her and Lee have a very hot make-out session. Holy hell was it hot. And it was only kissing. Hot damn!

Anyway, I hate it. Because they're cheating on their spouses. Kara won't get a divorce because of the pleadge she made in front of their Gods, even though, as Lee pointed out, she is breaking it anyway. I think it's easy to deduce, IMHO, that Kara's hiding. She knows that as soon as she's free from marriage, Lee's going to pursue a heavy relationship and she can't do that. She can't commit to him right now. So, she can keep her vow and have Lee too. She's having fun with him, she probably loves being with him like this. But at the same time, she still cares, probably still loves Sam. I don't want to get into their relationship because I'm still not a fan of Anders. He gets on my nerves, has since season 2. I understand what he's saying, and he's right, Lee shouldn't be doing that with Kara, but he's letting his feelings get in the way, which is, as Lee should know, a problem.

Also, Lee can't continue because it's weighing on his heart everytime he looks at Dee. And this is the part that got me...Lee and Kara's voices start breaking when she asks what do they do? And she looks like she's about to cry, as well as him. They really want this, but can't find the circumstances because they're BOTH hiding behind their respective spouses, Kara because she's like that and Lee because he's probably fucking terrified of getting his heart torn again. But Lee knows that if Kara divorces Sam for him, then it's something real. Therefore, he won't divorce Dee until Kara divorces Sam. I think at least.

Okay, that's enough for now.

I want to admit how much I loved Dee ignoring Kara. Sorry, as much as I don't actually hate or dislike Kara right now, she deserves it. What makes it better is that she's not treating Lee any nicer. I saw it said somewhere, Dee's going to force Lee to admit that the marriage isn't working, she's going to make him break it off because he basically started it. And I'm sorry, I don't care what you say, no Dee doesn't deserve this kind of treatment.

So, moving on to the rest of the story. Okay, I'm sorry, I don't care how much fandom is going to lynch me for this or how cute he is, I want to fucking strangle Helo. That comment he made to Adama last night made me glad I could pause while I was watching because I was literally yelling at the TV last night.

On top of that we had the episode where he took the chance AWAY of getting rid of the Cylons. Yes, Helo, it would weigh on their hearts. But you know what wouldn't? THE DEATHS OF INNOCENTS. Because if the Cylons had been taken out, THEY WOULDN'T BE IN THIS FUCKING MESS. Argh, he is just pissing me off and I don't see it getting better. I know they wouldn't get rid of the Cylons, and Ron probably wanted to send the message that what they were comtemplating was wrong, but damnit, FIND ANOTHER FUCKING WAY INSTEAD OF GIVING ME CHARACTER RAGE!!! Fuck you anyway Ron.

Good of Roslin to not excuse her actions in regards to Sharon's baby. But damn was it awesome to see Adama just walk out like that!

Was I the only one to think that maybe CHIEF is one of the final five Cylons? That's my theory now. Except, he got Cally pregnant and that probably throws my theory way off and he really is someone who's being touched my this Eye of Jupiter. I don't know.

The trailer for when the season comes back pissed me off. This isn't the Lee and Kara show, I don't care how much I'm enjoying their relationship and please to be STOPPING THAT FUCKING MUSIC.

What am I missing?

Oh, the Cylon storyline that intrigued me when everyone else didn't like it? It's thrown me off now. Heh, I love being opposite of everyone. Also, please to be using Tricia Helfer properly.

bsg review, bsg
