1. Friday nights are sooooo much better than Sunday nights because I can watch and squee with buddies. Watching with buddies is sooooo much better than watching by myself!

2. Holy frakking shit that was awesome!

I'm so bummed we didn't get to meet up! We'll have to make it work sometime this season though. Two and a half hours early and they were sold out. *shakes head*

I was saying how despite the serious subject matter, this episode is probably the funniest one they've ever had. Baltar was a frakking hoot!

Hey Steph--I hope you had a blast at the Alamo anyway! And we're all for trying again next week (and every week after that...). Hopefully the crowds will die down a bit now that the whole premiere hype is over ;)

I think I've officially become as much of an Anders!girl as I am a Kara!girl. When did that happen? I was just as emotionally invested in everything that happened to him and so unbelievably delighted to see his character getting so much plot and attention.

RIGHT! OMG! I love Anders to itty bitty little pieces this season - I don't know when it started but I just can not get enough of him!

eta: i totally agree with you about the triangle - no matter what way it goes kara/lee, kara/sam, sam/lee..i am alllllll good :)

Me too me too! I'm so excited for him to have his own well-developed character arc and not just be Mr. Thrace. Between being a Final Four and being a nugget, in addition to the new marriage 'complications' with Kara, he's going to be such a frakking interesting character and I LOOOOOOOVES HIM!!!

And yay for the almighty OT3--seriously, I'm fascinated by all three and any/all relationship permutations and interactions possible. Best triangle evar!

When Sharon walked up during the Tyrol/Anders peptalk and asked who else Anders would be if not himself.

Hee! I loved that. Suddenly picturing "How to Deal With Being a Cylon 101" taught by Sharon Agathon.

I kind of loved how Kara's all "I need to find Roslin," and Sam's like "You can't! How's that even possible?" and then BAM! She takes down the guards and Sam in the process. Poor Sam. He needs lots of hugs after this ep... and possibly a cookie. He was the one FF who seemed to be having the most trouble accepting himself as a Cylon. And Kara didn't help matters...

Totally dude--that's hilarious! And later on, when/if Athena does figure out what's up with the Final Four, that will be some pretty fascinating stuff.

I'm baking poor Anders a whole damn sympathy CAKE for this week, because he's going to be just one big pile of woobie and self-doubt/loathing, and Kara's definitely not helping!

Though my girl has got issues of her own right now so I'm not really holding it against her.

Damn what an awesome episode! It still has my brain all spinny and excited :)

That was one frakking good episode! The eye thing with Anders was great! Did you end up going to the Alamo? My boss' husband is in Austin right now for an architecture seminar thingy and I told her to tell him, but I thought it was the Alamo Brew Pub, I forgot what amaleka_crone told me it was. And he went into an Alamo Pub or something and they didn't have a clue what he was talking about. Oops! LOL Anyway back to the show ( ... )

I loved the eye thing with Anders so much. Possibly my favorite part of the ep. Definitely the coolest sci-fi detail.

We couldn't get into the Alamo because it sold out THREE HOURS beforehand (WTF!) but we watched it on the unnecessarily large teevee at my casa--me, Sam and Megan.

Haha, no it's the Alamo Drafthouse (though brew pub is a reasonable approximation *g*)!

Baltar was totally creepy and I TOTALLY thought it was staged--he is always playing every public moment for maximum effect. If it was a real prayer, why wouldn't it have been an internal/fantasy thing in his head with dream!six?

Civvie!Lee looked so good honey, seriously: SO GOOD. That ribbed sweater was just yum, and the scruff was ALL GOOD, and I even liked his silly flippy hair. Bamber why must you be so damn adorable?

Lee did look good in the sweater last week but I wasn't as impressed with him in a suit last night. I don't really find dress suits to be that attractive, I much prefer fighter pilot suits. :)

I'm bored with civic!Lee and I want pilot!Lee back. *sigh* Seems that ain't gonna happen though...

YES to all! But we already talked it all out so I'll just tell you about my trip from hell home.

I almost got in two accidents. Because of the FRAKKING BULLSHIT that is the Texas Relay party on 6th. They had blocked off all of the exits so people were sitting in long lines trying to get back into traffic, because there wasn't ANY warning that the off ramps were closed.

Also, there was the whole 70 to zero traffic stall-age at somewhere around the Dean Keaton exit. Also because of the relay party thing. It smelled like burned rubber for MILES, dude. MILES.

THEN you have drunk thugs going 100, zipping in and out of lanes, and generally being a menace.

At least next Friday it will just be your regular Friday night drunken 6th street crowd. Those assholes I can handle.

AHHHHHHHBSGAWESOMESAUCE!!!!!

Dude, we almost got run over twice yesterday and once today by stupid m-frakkers on 35. I hate car shows. Hate them!

Also: please to not get killed driving home, kthnx. Next Friday is so on!!! Our show is 100% AWESOMECAKES.

PS: S kept gushing about funny and awesome you are to watch teevee with, and I got to be all like 'duh, that is why she is my fangirl bff!', and it was adorable and you are made of win. That is all.
