This week there were two BATTLESTARS, so that kept my inner (outer? yeah, probably outer) nerd happy.
I didn't exactly find the episode boring, but I guess I feel the same as Wacky. The story as it is would be plenty interesting if the characters were in any way likable relatable. I mean, I kinda want Lacey to be safe, but that's mostly because she's cute. She's still frakked in the head and blew a guy up in the mid-fuckuptheshowinthemiddleoftheseason-finale, iirc.
Also annoyed about what they've done to Joseph. What happened to him feeling conflicted and wanting to distance his son from Sam?
The whole show now is about a billionaire and a religious nutcase. They could both get killed off and I wouldn't really care, aside from missing two good actors.
I don't need more lame Buffy-esque sword fighting, though. That scene made no sense and was blatantly just there as fan service. More New Cap like we had before would be very welcome, though.

They were at the spaceport, along with other assorted interesting models.

Correct, correct, incorrect.
Swardson is best known for his standup and small roles in Happy Gilmore Productions' movies.
His first attempt at a show was Gay Robot.
I'll link it instead of tag it.

Seriouspost: there's probably legitimate academic work to be done on the way women and men use sex in the BSG/Caprica universe, and how the gender rules differ from the ones we have in real life.
In this thread, talk about gender relations!
(Or go back to that other derail, whatever. Pick your poison!)

They live in a pagan society. Of course their gender roles are different. They have female gods not just one, singular, male God, who tells all other human males that they're superior and to write books to the fact.
In BSG they had a female president and didn't even blink at her gender.
Admiral Cain was Admiral of the entire Colonial fleet. In the US we're not even allowed to have gays in the military or women in combat jobs.
The Mother is the leading religious authority in the Church of the One God. Catholics won't let women be priests.
According to the Athenian religion on Caprica, you're allowed to have polyamarous marriages. Not only that, but a woman is the dominant person in that group's relationship. Granted, they're a sleeper cell for a terrorist organization, but the point still stands that they have what Lacey called "Multiple Marriages."
Look at Sam Adama. He's gay, married, and in a high position of organized crime. Imagine a married gay guy out in the open in today's Mafia. The Soprano's (IMO realistically) portrayed one gay mafioso and what happened as a result of his being gay.
I could go on, but I've run out of major examples.
Well, there was that whole Baltar female harem thing.

Oh, hey, Zoe got a visit from Head Six. Who told her to create the Cylons. Duh.
(Somebody should really tell God that prophecies really lose their impact if you're spending your whole day making sure they happen. Prophecies should just happen!)

Hey I liked that episode okay.
I mean it had Tamara and Zoe FIGHTING and then TEAMING UP. Poor Lacy I WANT TO HUG HER. Head Zoe. SERGE.
And I like the inclusion of head Zoe, it makes it feel more like BSG and Caprica are part of one big story, and I wasn't one of the people who got all atheist mad at the BSG finale so.

Zoe and Tamara fighting made sense anyway since Tamara does think Zoe killed her. The Head Zoe was an UNEXPECTED addition and maybe it'll give zoe more direction. Poor Lacy indeed. But I'm disappointed she's going to end up at another terrorist training centre. Was that Clarice's "dead" husband alive again? So did anyone actually die in that bombing? The Daniel/Vergis scene was good.

Pftt. I find all the sword fighting and highkicks pretty lame. It's like they just thought, hey, Buffy was a popular show, let's have some girls fighting and exchanging one-liners. Then no one will notice how the rest of the episode is also about horrible, unrelatable people plotting to kill eachother - just like last week!
It was an okay episode over all, but the story didn't move on an awful lot. The fighting could've been reduced a lot to free up time to show the payoff of the pair joining forces and the many shots of Lacy flopping about on the floor could've made way for other material as well.

There hideous Jezebels who fill men with lustful thoughts. All of them are Hell spawn-arch deceivers and true offspring of Eve, that whore who got us in trouble with the snake!
I therefore cancel Caprica, and replace it with the Waltons.
