Battlestar Galactica Finale

( – promoted by buhdydharma )

Liveblogging!

I’m so totally playing hooky tonight.

It’s too distracting to concentrate on anything else except spring cleaning which I really need to do to clear the decks for action.  I’ve given up on being very productive this evening.

Here’s a Wikipedia list of all the previous episodes including the survivor rates which I always thought was a very cool feature and meant to save.

This is the general Wikipedia treatment of BSG.

I don’t pretend to be the greatest trivia expert on it.  I’ve felt that until Sometimes a Great Notion and No Exit I had no frakkin’ clue where they were headed.  Even now rewatching all this cutesy music nonsense (that was just plain ridiculous in Crossroads) I’m almost certain it will be hugely disappointing.

I felt that way about Moonlighting and Xena for instance (Cybill on the other hand was satisfactory).

The space below is for your scribbles.

  1. SciFi is so totally lying to you about the time.

    Battlestar Galactica: The Last Frakking Special is airing now.

    On their site the schedule says 8 pm is the start of the “2 Hour Episode” when Part One of Daybreak starts.

    Part Two is the 9 pm to 10 pm hour they are lying to you about on screen.

    Repeat starts at 10 and goes to midnight.

    All Times Eastern.

  62. At the proper time, the secret priests would take great Cthulhu from His tomb to revive His subjects and resume His rule of earth….

    Then mankind would have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy.

    Then the liberated Old Ones would teach them new ways to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves, and all the earth would flame with a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom.
