That's probably not a bad order either if you've already seen the series once and can't be spoiled on the Season 4 details the Plan reveals.

There's definitely no certainty about it, yes. It's only implied our Earth might be different. But then, that kind of uncertainty from immortal beings like the Angels suggest the timeline isn't circular.

I did this recently. Watch it after Episode 17, No Exit. It fits almost perfectly thematically, and all the plot info the Plan hinges on has been just revealed as of that episode.

Well the other practical problem in this one is that Baltar is on the Cylon bayship in the boxing main story, making my criticism a tad unfair.

I actually don't mind the finale that much. In retrospect I think it was pretty good, and as satisfying a conclusion as you could get given where the series was at that point.

"Well the whole thing with the show is that time is circular-"

But as I said, if the constellations they looked at were supposed to be from the perspective of the Revelations Earth (aka Cylon Earth), who precisely from that planet built the Tomb of Athena on Kobol…?

The finale seriously fraks with the first two season's mythology.

I just did a rewatch of BSG recently actually, and mostly enjoyed it quite a bit. There are some seriously bad episodes in the run that weigh parts down, but to use a clumsy metaphor that's pertinent to this article, those big blows aren't as bad if you're ready for them (specifically, Black Market, Fat Lee, the deus…

I don't think anybody here misunderstands misogyny drdarke. What we find baffling is who you're ascribing it to; specifically HDTGM and the Flop House (and we haven't even gotten into the homophobia the Flop House and HDTGM apparently demonstrates).

"At first it was fitfully amusing though hardly intellectually
stimulating, then the whole "We're Dudes! From New Jersey! We don't let
our wimmen push us around, because - we're Dudes! From New Jersey!"
locker room air of their podcast really got on my nerves."

On a related hat tangent in the episode, "initial public doffering" is the hardest I've laughed in months.

Yeah I'm sure Obama would be able to satisfy your feverish ranting and bone up on them 'facts' were he only to skip a public holiday.

From the article Sean sourced;

Seeing that picture after my recent Mr Show rewatch has made me realise how much Paul F Tompkins looks like he's aging backwards.

Nah, I don't think it was too dark. This, from the pilot, has been an exceptionally dark show (the bully being killed by Rick's freeze ray), I just think it was a different kind of darkness.

Let's hope it goes better than last time a Walton Goggins character got with a Mara.

Great to see this is being picked up for regular review. This show just keeps getting stronger and stronger.

Yes, that ending was just goddamned perfect.

Does anyone else feel like Scandal tried initially to portray Fitz as closer to a Bartlett type (his fucking around being his flaw, like Bartlett concealing his MS), but otherwise a pretty decent, principled politician in the first season? Like him trying to pass immigration reform and nominating a really good…
