I am SO ready to put ALTLUT to bed. I really am.
And I forgot all about Sine Qua Non and The Hub, and that Dee should have some sort of reaction to LEE being President. And Tigh being a Cylon (I figure he's really the only one Dee would care about). And the destruction of The Hub.
The thing is, I hate Sine Qua Non, with a passion. I hate it because it's basically Adama being a pissy little boy, and the whole point of the episode is "pacify the Admiral." Which would be fine, if RDM would have made it look like Adama was wrong later on. I mean, when Laura kidnapped Hera, I could understand why, but there was never any doubt in anyone's mind that it was meant to be construed as a bad idea. When Adama refused to acknowledge Zarek as President, it was more of an "oh well." And then this whole search to find someone Adama won't object... Bill- put on your big girl panties and deal with democracy, okay??? Our declare martial law.
So, yeah. Plus, I have a hard time writing episode-based fic off of one watch. (Although the scripts help.) When I did my series rewatch pre-4.5, I didn't rewatch Sine Qua Non, The Hub, or Revelations, because they weren't burned to disk or something. And we still haven't bought 4.5. Although I'm not so worried about Revelations and SaGN- those episodes stuck in my head really well. SQN and The Hub were just much more nebulous.
I'm just ready to finish this one up. I sent the first bit of my big bang off the other day, and I REALLY want to get moving on that. Plus, we all know how ALTLUT has to end, and yeah.... that's gonna hurt.
Okay. Time to get the kiddies ready for a playdate.
