BSG S3 3x01 & 3x02 thoughts...
Well, well, well.
Well.
Loved the Kara thread; thought playing the munchkin was an unbearably apt and cruel thing to do. Am interested in where Leoben gets his hardon for Kara – Stockholm Syndrome? I don’t get the little hand hold at the end – this is not the act of a woman who has killed Leoben five times in a row over four months.
*loved* Sharon and Adama. Loved it.
Not too keen on Lee. He is a deeply moral man and for him to just give up and be someone who can only function when he has a war doesn’t do justice to the person I thought he was.
Love Tigh, he’s hard and obsessed and utterly focussed. I don’t like him as a person but the character is great.
Interested in the Cylon take on what their mission is. It sounds like Boomer and Six managed to pitch the end of immediate hostilities but didn’t in any way manage to convey a vision where humans and Cylons actually talk to each other. The Cylons turned up as an invading force and seem to have no concept of humans as potential equals. In which case what on earth are they trying to achieve?
Is the vision of human/Cylon relations where humans behave like Centurions?
They need Adama desperately.
Feel a lot of the war commentary is a bit on the cheap side. We already know this, guys, we’ve watched the Americans doing it for years. We know people are stupid and pretty and short-sighted and that it doesn’t work.
Loved the Roslyn/Zarek exchange

Biers is either the ruler or the hero -- thus far, I'm leaning towards ruler, but can see both.
Boomer's the regular gal, I think. I was tempted to say the innocent, but that's really just the Boomer-Valerii one, not the standard model eight.
Cavil is probably the outlaw, actually, since he's atheistic and cynical compared to the traditional cylon outlook, and he seems to be somewhat less tolerant of -- well, everything.
Doral -- I could see him as a ruler or a creator, actually, so that and Biers are sort of intertwined. She seems very much in charge, but he seems to be the one sort of -- sowing the seeds of things, really, so I suppose that's creator territory.
Leoben is the magician. He has to be. The perpetual rebirth, the visions, his attempts at creating memories and moments with Starbuck...
Simon only really works as the caregiver, I think, since that's the entirety of his personality as presented to us thus far.
Six is the lover, obviously; I can't even think of anything else that'd work for her.

Hrm, I sound vaguely professional - something must be wrong.
