- AIN'T NOTHING LIKE THE SMELL OF DUMB ON PUSSY MIXED WITH BETRAYAL IN THE MORNIN' :D

- Look! It's a Bamber character that I can like without feeling vaguely ill about hordes of stupid fangirls! Yes, I know that there are a lot of wanktastic jackass morons in the BSG fandom, but really, aww, lookit his emo! Lookit his daddy issues! I got all sniffly when Daddy E broke down and started yelling for his last remaining boy and <3. He is so practical in this.

Plus, I'm digging the roided out, dark-haired Bamber. Yes, I do like Archie, but after reading 29384029348 terrible fics about his flaxen-haired beauty and sapphire orbs, I'm pretty much 128% down with the fact that I can enjoy Bamber without any fandom >:|

- PS: Lee is totally banging Madam President. There's no way they're not. They totally get it on in an empty hangar bay or even that black leather chair in the lounge or whatever? COME ON. Lee sticks his head under her skirt, gives her head, and afterwards, she calls him her little baby and makes him feel less lonely. YOU KNOW IT'S HAPPENING.

- And the Secretary of Education shall inheirit the universe.

- PS: LEE IS SO TOTALLY BANGING MADAM PRESIDENT.

- The burial scene made goosebumps prickle on my arms.

- Leaving the dude on the planet = cool, badass, and totally fucking awesome. Madame President = REALLY FUCKING AWESOME. The badass evil toughmindedness of the writers? TRULY. MOTHERFUCKING. AWESOME. When they leave the ships that can't make the FTL jump? OMG. OMG. OMG. The flashes of light through the aboretum view, that slow gong music, even that cliche'd bit with the little girl. This show cranks up the pain and pressure and OMG.

- I love the speech between Crazypants Cylon and Olmos in the pipes room. Man. The idea of God giving souls to machines because he realized he didn't get it right with humanity? The idea of machines have a real, honest-to-God theology GOOD SHIT.

- I approve of the sassy, tempermental little AZN chick getting her engineer. :>

- PSS: LEE IS SO TOTALLY BANGING MADAM PRESIDENT.

In short, I love the miniseries for Battlestar Galactica. It is tough-minded and crazy and horrifyingly practical. It takes paranoia to an art form, and man, I love Jamie Bamber's character because he is tough-minded and crazy and has daddy issues like you would not believe.

In the time between me commenting initially and now, I remembered seeing something somewhere in the past about how Ron Moore's favorite book was one of the Hornblowers and I just googled and found where he said his favorite book is Hotspur! I have some serious problems with BSG in S2, but I do love that RDM is with us on the joy of Hotspur.

!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy fuck! He also did the first season of Carnivale? And he likes Dragonriders of Pern? And Hotspur is his favorite book? Clearly, this man is what I would be if I were a badass exec producer OMFG.

Hotspur is warm comfort soul food. <3 It really is.

Remember though, that he was also exec producer of Roswell. He can't be let off the hook for that one.

Ahaha. Well, um. He said it went somewhere that he didn't want it to go? XD I've never really seen the show, alas.
