Haha, I just remembered that the miniseries, and I think one of the early episodes, had a version of the kid Boxey from the OG series. Moore and co. must have been like, "LOL fuck that, nobody liked that character ever and this is not a show about little kids."

yeah, he was on some of the deleted scenes, i think. they eventually decided to just cut him out altogether

what idiot let 'Crashdown' head up a mission to Kobol. Tempting fate.

you gotta admit that's a pretty awful callsign to take

hey hoos/owenf
did u start with season 1 proper, or the miniseries?
if you havent seen the miniseries go back & check it out when you get a chance, it's worth it.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 8 April 2012 05:15 (twelve years ago) link
miniseries is the "true" beginning of the series
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 8 April 2012 05:16 (twelve years ago) link
xp yeah, though 30/Water is way more exciting, it's still worth wathcing just to see the setup
― Nhex, Sunday, 8 April 2012 06:50 (twelve years ago) link
yeah we both watched the miniseries first. Thinking about, it works really well to have it in this format. The big 'event' that forces the journey in a chunk and then ramp it down a little for the bulk of the show. Ideally it could end in some big miniseries showdown!

Rewatching mini series atm: lol'ing at Six's space-hooker clothes

Dude who plays Crashdown= Vader's secret apprentice in the Force Unleashed games.
― Frank Youngenstein (Phil D.), Sunday, 8 April 2012 23:55 (twelve years ago) link
pretty sure the newer dvd/blu-ray sets and all online streaming versions actually put the miniseries in with season 1
― mh, Monday, 9 April 2012 00:46 (twelve years ago) link
i was under the impression they were still being sold separately, glad I'mwrong
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 9 April 2012 00:47 (twelve years ago) link
I was worried because there was some insane amazon deal for the whole series box set and I was pissed that it didn't say it included the miniseries, but it's the first disc in season one.
― mh, Monday, 9 April 2012 00:50 (twelve years ago) link
yay!

so um
if the vice president was just rescued in the midst of a cylon firefight
why do they have martial law instead of a new president
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 08:10 (twelve years ago) link
doc going hardman was kind of great
does tigh become a character you actually like at some point?
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 08:11 (twelve years ago) link
ellen is such a lady macbeth
there are too many fucking lady macbeths
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 08:56 (twelve years ago) link
i actually said "fuck yeah" to my laptop when tigh finds out the workers are striking
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 08:57 (twelve years ago) link
Yes, definitely.
We got my parents into this show, and bought them the DVDs for Christmas for a couple of years as they were being released but they have still never seen the last season. My mom says she can't deal with the show ending.
― carl agatha, Monday, 9 April 2012 12:33 (twelve years ago) link
Tigh is one of my favorite characters of the show by the end!
― mh, Monday, 9 April 2012 13:59 (twelve years ago) link
i think it's safe to say you're going to be seeing a lot more shades of Ellen and Tigh by the end of the series
― Nhex, Monday, 9 April 2012 14:17 (twelve years ago) link
Tigh easily one of the most consistently compelling characters on the show

They really move him from semi-washed-up and sparring with Starbuck into a dude with a lot of heartache and loss (no spoiler). hoos and owen have a lot to look forward to
― mh, Monday, 9 April 2012 15:31 (twelve years ago) link
i just started watching this. took me awhile...but i had to get through all of friday night lights, sons of anarchy, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc... plus all those macgyver episodes with the kids....plus we just started watching xena together and we have like 121 episodes to go there...
but i am enjoying. it makes me sad in a weird way, which is what sci-fi that i like does to me.

damn yall "the farm" was dark as fuck
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 18:37 (twelve years ago) link
i had to immediately watch "earth part 1 &2" to get it outta my head
so claustrophobic and unsettling
man chief seeing caprica-boomer w/helo was heavy shit
also "and you ask 'why'?" made my eyes get huge
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 18:39 (twelve years ago) link
Home I and II, not Earth I and II.
And yes I kind of hate myself for correcting that.
― carl agatha, Monday, 9 April 2012 18:55 (twelve years ago) link
that
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 18:58 (twelve years ago) link
"that error" I guess?
I hate myselffor correcting Hoos.
― carl agatha, Monday, 9 April 2012 19:06 (twelve years ago) link
haha no i just meant like "yes, that, what you said, is what i meant to say"
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 19:23 (twelve years ago) link
Back atcha, fella.
ANYWAY Home is an awesome episode. "And you ask why?" is great. I also think Kobol is pretty and creepy.
― carl agatha, Monday, 9 April 2012 19:38 (twelve years ago) link
I'm a little confused about why nobody brings up the argument of settling on Kobol? Is it because there are cylons there? What's not to say that Cylons don't follow them all the way to earth?
― owenf, Monday, 9 April 2012 20:46 (twelve years ago) link
I think it's because Kobol is cursed? Also they are hoping to get away from the Cylons.
― carl agatha, Monday, 9 April 2012 20:54 (twelve years ago) link
that's a good point--are they looking for earth because of its mystical historic properties or just cause it's a planet with water and shit that they can live on?
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 22:23 (twelve years ago) link
also cylon 6 in sweats + a ponytail fuckin w/doc was hilars
"I'M NOT CRAZY"
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 9 April 2012 22:24 (twelve years ago) link
Kobol's cursed. also the Cylons know where it is
