More fic for moi!

[bop_radar]

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

Thank you. That's exactly what I needed to know and there is no WAY that I am watching that. I've seen it referred to as a promo, but obviously it's more than that. Thanks HEAPS for the clarification. And I'm sorry to hear you wound up spoiled.

[bop_radar]

Ok, that makes sense--I can see how the confusion arose. I'm glad I was so cautious on it.

I think I forgot I was staying spoiler free, because I watched the HypaSpace clip without even blinking. I don't regret watching it. It's actually gotten me extra excited for S4, but there's definitely stuff in there a true spoiler virgin would want to avoid. Though none of it felt substantial. It felt like little glimpses that tease and leave you completely unsatisfied.

BSG is a cruel mistress!

Lee was in it and had episode dialogue, Jamie also had a few words to say, too.

If you want, I could edit it for you. Or you could watch it without sound?

[bop_radar]

Thanks for the offer! But nah, it's cool--it definitely sounds like the sort of thing I'd regret watching--even part of it. And visuals can be even more spoilery than sound, I find. It's reassuring to hear that they've remembered Lee exists and given him dialogue though. :D

I really do want to stay unspoilt, and if I start watching stuff like this now, who knows where I'll end up? I may watch it right before S4 airs but it sounds like if I watch it now I'll just wind up wanting to know more. I'm not risking that.

I wish I had your willpower! I need to be stricter with myself. I find I can easily skip past any Cylon type spoilers (though I did accidentally read something when everyone was discussing the EW scan, that I had no idea of - grrrrrrrr) but I'm seriously hopeless when it comes to audio/video footage that contains pilots.

It's reassuring to hear that they've remembered Lee exists and given him dialogue though. :D

absolutely!

I can tell you that Jamie was wearing brown knee length shorts and a yellow polo shirt. and Katee was wearing something red and white stripy beneath her costume. Is it wrong that I think they are fashionably challenged together? :)

[cherylad]

Sorry to jump in .. but had to comment.... I cracked up at Jamie's attire. Such a man. Completely gorgeous but completely can't let him dress himself. When I saw Katee's red & white striped shirt under her blues, I found myself wondering if what they wear under their costumes is like "what do judges wear under their robes?" and now I just KNOW when I watch the show I'm going to be wondering, hmmmm..... wonder what's under that today?

Okay, Cheryl really should NOT watch the promo over and over at 2am.

I didn't think there was anything jaw-dropping in the clips, but there certainly were hints as to what would happen in the first few eps. I'm saying "few eps" since it seemed like it would be a lot of ground to cover in one episode.

One non-spoilery thing I noticed, is that in one clip the sound seemed off to me which made me wonder if we were seeing the finished product or if they were still tweaking the eps.

[einaphets]

It was all from the first episode believe it or not. It's gonna start with a bang.

[bop_radar]

OK, well since I don't want to know the plot of the first ep or eps, I'll stay away. It sounds a little too tease-y for me.

[daybreak777]

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

[bop_radar]

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.

[daybreak777]

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!

[bop_radar]

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.

[einaphets]

Happy belated birthday!

I don't think I saw anything that I didn't already imagine was happening, but better safe than sorry. I, as a one-day-a-spirgin-the-other-day-a-whore was quite excited just to see *anything* new BSG related, even if it was just Lee and Kara flying in the vipers without sound. It was a pick-me-up I needed! lol

[bop_radar]

Thank you! :)

Oh, I'm excited to hear that more BSG stuff is being released. I just don't want to watch it yet. :D
