1) Comment to this and I will give you 3 people.
2) Post this meme with your answers.
3) Provide pictures and the names of 3 people.
4) Label which you would marry, shag, and throw off a cliff.

( Daybreak Spoilers )

I haven't watched the finale yet (so please no spoilers) but I've noticed the episode on iTunes has "Daybreak Part II" as fifty minutes. Is this correct? If it aired two hours I think the episode would be longer. I don't want to download it until I know for sure.

Sorry for the spam, but I had to do this.

From stardust_20:

On this big finale day, let's celebrate BSG. If you see this on your f-list:
- quote the show
- and/or post a cap of one of your favorite scenes

From Bastille Day:

Lee: "I swore an oath... to defend the articles. The articles say there's an election in seven months. Now, if you're telling me we're throwing out the law, then I'm not a Captain, you're not a Commander and you are not the President. And I don't owe either of you a damned explanation for anything."

I love this quote because it summarizes Lee's motivations for acting throughout the series perfectly. It's not about personal feelings, it's about duty and honor.

And one of my favorite scenes:

( Cut for picture size )

From "The Son Also Rises", this picture is right after Bill tells Lee "not to quantify MY loss" like he has no idea that Lee's slowly falling apart in front of him. Look at that expression! That scene still brings tears to my eyes. Oh, and sorry for the crappy quality, but it's taken from my iTunes episode on my laptop.

The picture itself is actually part of a TSAR meta that's been swirling in my brain, how that episode solidified my hate for Bill based solely on his reaction to Lee's grief. What? I've never claimed to be objective.

So my flatmate and I are watching BSG (she's a newbie), and we just finished "Sacrifice". And once again, I'm so annoyed by the plot contrivance that is Kara shooting Lee.

Okay. Let's look at this tactically. Kara knows, for sure, that Ellen Tigh and Lee are both in the bar, and she can assume that Dee is, right? And she must know that one of them will recognise her.

Which is what happens. ELLEN TIGH recognises Kara and gives her away. Okay. So. Do we, as viewers, believe that Kara, who's known for planning missions, would make such a stupid mistake? And do we think Ellen knows what those Marines look like? Though we see Ellen hitting on Lee and Tom Zarek, there's no indication she likes Marines-they don't have enough power.

So why wouldn't Kara (who can plan missions and is fairly good at strategic thinking), go into the bar? It's bothered me every time I watched it.

Thoughts? I can't believe I'm discussing Sacrifice only hours before the Series Finale, but I needed opinions...my flatmate wanted to discuss why Kara went in instead of sending someone else. Because she's upset about Kara shooting Lee because she's a Lee/Kara shipper. I didn't even have to convince her, either, she watched the brig scene and was like, "I want them to get together". When we watched Scar she was so excited, and then, not, of course.

I only have a few things to say:

It seems like all I ever post anymore is BSG reviews. I'll try to do better at other things as well.

As always, SPOILERS for the most recent BSG episode.
