This is a very, very important distinction.

A biography or monograph of the event and the men involved would be great. Also worthy of note: the fine for a beating that severe was $300 at the time.

That ending is one where even if Chandor meant for me to see/discuss ambiguity I don't want to think that the character didn't survive.

Bees?

Well, now I remember Lou Pearlman is a person….damnit.

I do think I love Donna the most as a stand alone companion. It helps that she got some amazing episodes in her run (Fires of Pompeii, Silence in the Library, etc) but she's the only one to stand up to the doctor. Also, no romantic entanglement.
That being said, I love Rory Williams and I don't care who knows it!

(I'm putting this reply her just because it make sense. I'm not countering or arguing with your statement)
Martha was wasted potential. She was a medical student! It should have been two doctors, two caring healers roaming the galaxy but instead they made her just a love-sick bi-standard.

My personal favorite Kurosawa film is Stray Dogs. It's one of his "contemporary" films, set in the early 1950s. It tells you so much about post-war Japan. The attitude of the characters and the westernization of Japan are handled in great, complex detail.

The Salmon Ladder makes dreams come true.

By Grabthar's hammer…what a savings.

I read the first book in the Legend trilogy but not the rest. I liked the book but I think it was between Divergent (yay) and Mortal Instruments (ugh) in a summer YA reading binge and I never went back. Good to hear a recommendation.

Yeah, I think it's pledge money or get a sponsor for you to do the challenge.

-Caught up with Drunk History episodes: Baltimore, South Carolina, Hollywood, and Hawaii.
Of all the episodes I think South Carolina ended up being the best with Hawaii close behind it. South Carolina had someone mention in an off-hand way that, in the area he used to live, someone got stabbed during a hand job. They…

"It's in the Frakking walls!" - My favorite line from the series, out of context.

I loved when cally got airlocked. Good times.

SPOILERS BELOW. SERIOUSLY, SPOILERS.
I can't particularly stand early Tigh, but I liked Tigh (or Patches, as I like to call him) from season three until the end. His New Caprica arc and how he became even more of a man after he found out the truth about himself was great.

The Chief does have the worst end for a character on the show. I loved him so much in season one just to have him loose all good qualities by the end.

I always appreciated that even when I didn't like what Roslin did, I understood why did it. They made her continually complex and I really appreciated that, especially as Starbuck got dragged down in useless drama.

That would make sense. It's the first actual episode of the show and a major change of pace from the miniseries.

Favorite character(s): Helo! (moral compass) and Roslin (complexity)
