Added 2025-05-22 13:01:03 +0000 UTCI had to immediately continue when this show hit me with the "To Be Continued..." 🤣 So here I am, straight out of Episode 4's emotional act of contrition. Seeing the fallout of Starbuck's confession about Zak, and how deeply it shook both Adama and Lee, showed so many true raw emotional colors from all of these characters. Adama's line, "I'm not losing another one" got me. He's not just a commander here, he's a father still trying to make peace with grief and losing every day.
I'm so into this show now after these back-to-back episodes. This show is punching me right in the heart, but I kind of love it 😂🥹 See you in the next one!

Extremely good reaction. You hit all the major tearing-up points, at least you hit the same ones I do 🥲

2025-05-27 00:58:18 +0000 UTCWhat I love about this episode is it tells you basic human thought processes. Rosalyn wants to move on Adama to endure Lee wants to win Baltar wants to survive Starbuck wants to die And Hot Dog is just awesome. I lost my father as an infant, and my stepfather thirty years later. The "If it were you we'd never leave" hits so heavily. By the way, there's a boardgame (6-8 players) of this and is insanely fun to play. Because at most one of you is a Cylon, but it could be up to 2 later, and you don't know. But the goal of the game is not to win. The goal of the game is to survive. Poignant for capturing the show. Takes about 6-7 hours, but fun.

2025-05-23 02:49:43 +0000 UTCI really love this episode! And the spontaneous extra episode this week worked out so well, so thank you for the bonus content! This one was so interesting for putting logic against heart. Both arguments are totally valid and ones I can get behind. But Adama's pure determination just won me over, and makes me love his character that much more. You can really feel how important family is for him, both in the things he said, and all the silent moments. Which also makes Zac's death all the more difficult to accept for someone like him. And Starbuck is of course amazing in this episode. You just can't not smile seeing the way she flies the Cylon ship and Lee's reaction to seeing her writing on the underside haha Also, random side note, despite Tigh being an absolute rat sometimes, I still really love his character LOL. I think part of that is just always looking at him and seeing grumpy Commander Bailey sitting behind his desk on the Citadel hahaha
