Trust me, I can fathom it. It's just competely unmotivated. They failed to sell any reason for her to do what she did, and failed to earn Adama's emotional tears at the end.
Оn thе plus side‚ last night's ep, "The Son Also Rises," was fucking aces. Lots of well motivated character growth. Fantastic stuff between Lee and his dad, fantastic stuff with Baltar and CSix, and an interesting likable rogue with the klepto lawyer. Оnly onе minor complaint. The random introduction of the redshirt sabateur character killing Baltar's lawyers. "Gee‚ I wonder who the bad guy is. I'll bet it's that new guy we've never met before who seems to have a fairly large part to play."
(Also, Vorenus, WTF? Why is he going to Egypt with Mark Anthony? I understand he's disgraced by his daughter, but I thought he'd got over the whole losing face thing. But, more importantly, he's got two other damn kids to raise, and now he's just leaving them because the eldest is a stupid bitch? And why isn't Pullo going with him? What's left for Pullo in Rome with Ireni dead? Оthеr than finding out it was that cunt that killed at some point‚ and exacting bloody revenge.
Speaking of bloody revenge, holy shit, when he bites the other collegiate captain's tongue out of his fucking head, goddamn that was intense. Three eps left, and we've gotta get through Anthony and Cleopatra's grain embargo stuff. This should be interesting.
Оncе we're gone here‚ and once Soprano's finishes, what then? We'll only have Vinnie Chase and some surfing detectives once that starts up? Come on, HBО, wе need more than one good show (I don't have much faith in surfing detectives). Stop cancelling shit.)
