I read it not as her checking yes subconsciously, but rather others subconsciously picking up on what hopes she had left for her own loved ones. This episode seems to be about perception—which especially applies to the scene with Wayne—whether it's with the prostitute at the beginning or the woman from her past; the…
I loved that "re-creating the credits" sequence, and what was especially great about it was the differences. It wasn't nighttime and while there were rain-soaked windows, it wasn't raining. Nice look at Sarah's state of mind there, and a nice showcase for the directing and cinematography that's always been great, even…
Kinnaman and Enos were fantastic at the end, but I think my favorite scene of theirs was the one in which Linden pulled the gun on Holder. You could see the emotions pouring out of Sarah and the weight of the entire situation on her shoulders, as well as the clear disgust on Holder's face when she accused him of…
I agree. The case wasn't bad, but like many other aspects of the show, it paled in comparison to the central Linden-Holder dynamic (plus, I could've done without some of the things thrown in just to create parallels).
Battlestar Galactica Season 2.0, ARC 5: "This is what happens when you have to make 20 episodes a season"
EPISODES COVERED: "Epiphanies", "Black Market", "Scar", "Sacrifice"
I also found the dream conversation between Daniel and Trey really interesting. Trey questions whether you should spend time thinking about dreams and Daniel has the opposite view, and at the end of the episode, Trey's the one who forces Daniel to think about that night (which was portrayed differently in that dream…
This episode, to me, was about reality and truth hitting the characters right in the face, but the reality and truth doing so perhaps distorted and under the guise of certainty. What matters with Daniel is not whether the story was true or not, but rather that this alternate story was introduced in the first place.…

I thought 5B was fantastic, but 5A was one of the weaker spots in the series (Fifty One was my favorite episode there). 5A was, in my opinion, a collection of great scenes that didn't really amount to much, at least not as much as other seasons did.
Same here, but that didn't diminish the power of the episode. I'm making my way through season 7 right now and I pretty much know how the series ends, but I still expect to be blown away.
I just watched "Parricide", and I now have an entirely new definition of shit hitting the fan. What an episode that was.
Battlestar Galactica—Season 2.0, Arc 4: Pegasus
EPISODES COVERED: "Pegasus", "Resurrection Ship Part 1", "Resurrection Ship Part 2"
Although there are plenty of other factors to take into play, the Pegasus is essentially what the Battlestar Galactica would be without Roslin. It’s not that Adama is Cain; rather, you…

Friday Night Lights Awards+Series Wrap Up
My favorite character this week? Ted Sr., for extending the compassion and appreciation Daniel needed in that moment by talking about where he'd put the stove in and how it makes things taste better. It's a nice extension off of last week's situation with Daniel tearing everything down in the kitchen and the conflict…
