Battlestar Galactica

Whoa *doggies*.

I'm blissed. I also have a minimal idea of what is going on, other than the vague overview of running and chasing and huge genocidal death by alien species everywhere.

It's like someone said, jenn, what are your kinks again? And then they wrote it.

*bliss*

I'm over here, one quarter through the pilot. Happy.

Anyone else watching this? Please?

Ooooh, am I ever. When you say "the pilot," do you mean the miniseries from last year?

*can totally supply pimping tapes*

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 12:59 am (UTC)
I think the miniseries was on 2-6, adn I got all but the last 30 minutes. right now is hte pilot for the start of the series, I think.

Damn, but I wish I'd gotten all the miniseries. Stupid DVR froze up. Do you have that?

From: [identity profile] wrenlet.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:02 am (UTC)
I have the whole 4-hr miniseries, the "Lowdown" special, and the two episodes they premiered last night :D

It's a good series so far. I've got the first eleven eps downloaded, and it's been good, solid and steady.

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:00 am (UTC)
It's already downloadable?

Whoa. When did it start?

From: [identity profile] wrenlet.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:01 am (UTC)
Ages ago, overseas :( The North American premiere was last night.

I don't know the country, but it's on a station called Sky One, and the music used is different than the American version. I got it from this site: http://www.btefnet.net/

I don't know if the torrents are still up.

Not only am I watching but I'm starting a search for the slashy OTP, although I really do like Starbuck and her chemistry with Apollo...

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:01 am (UTC)
I'm still working out the names. IS there a directory somewhere? But God, teh plotline is just fascinating me. Wow.

You could go to the official SciFi site, where they give you not only the characters, but a brief bio of the actors: http://www.scifi.com/battlestar/characters/

Or you could just remember that Apollo is the hottie from the A&E Horatio Hornblower series, and TPTB made Starbuck a girl. :/

But God, teh plotline is just fascinating me. Wow.

Oh yeah, it's far more serious and meatier than the original. It's downright brutal, in some ways.

*cracks up* I've already decided that even if I never pay that much attention to the plot, I'm watching for the sheer kinkiness. Glad it's not just me that's enjoying it for those reasons. :)

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:30 am (UTC)
It's the coolest! I'm so *happy*.

Also, I now know they are androids. It's almost like an AU star wars, where the droids rose up in rebellion to the humans. Okay. It's not. I just alwasy, always wondered why they *didn't*.

*chuckle* Clearly you're not reading my journal anymore. *g*

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:35 am (UTC)
*grins* I've been skipping days a *lot*.

But oooh. All the *plot*. *happy*

From: [identity profile] teaphile.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:08 am (UTC)
Oh, yes. Meret and I are waiting for the President to seduce some poor young thing like her assistant or Apollo.

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:36 am (UTC)
*Grins* OH man. Yes.

From: [identity profile] reboot-wlm.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:39 am (UTC)
Yes, yes, yes, I love this series. I was a big fan of the old one but this one is great too so far.

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 03:00 am (UTC)
*nodnodnod* So. Cool.

Whee! Big fun.

From: [identity profile] eliade.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 02:22 am (UTC)
Hee. I lucked out finally by noticing that they were playing the first 2 new eps post previous miniseries/movie tonight and I'm psyched. The original 2-hour miniseries/movie hit tons of kinks for me.

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 04:19 am (UTC)
*nod* I watched it today, after missing Friday. *happy place*

From: [identity profile] ranalore.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 05:20 am (UTC)
Not only am I watching it, I wrote it for [livejournal.com profile] yuletide. This is so my new fandom.

From: [identity profile] plumsnickety.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 05:55 am (UTC)
Haha! *waits for you to start writing Starbuck/Apollo*

Hee.

From: [identity profile] metamorphogenic.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 06:55 am (UTC)
OMG, I loved the pilot. I had no idea there were episodes available already, as someone mentioned earlier. I have to learn how to use Bittorrent now! *has techno-meltdown*

From: [identity profile] lemonbella.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 01:01 pm (UTC)
For once the UK is getting these things before you! It only gets better I can assure you. There's much running and jumping and shooting, it's all very exciting.

*goes back to lurking*

From: [identity profile] nullabona.livejournal.com Date: 2005-01-17 02:27 pm (UTC)
I've seen the mini and 1st 2 eps and have totally and completely gotten over the fact that Starbuck AND Boomer(loves of my 4th grade life) are both girls now. Because the women on this show can BRAWL! I came out of nostalgia but will stay for the OMG good stuff.
