Though the Room 23 scene was kind of cool
Man, BSG rocks ass all over Lost. I feel numb after watching the mid-season opener, even though not much happened.
It's still a good time and I will continue paying $2/ep to iTunes until the show ends or I get cable again, whatever comes first. But watching it in small servings over time like this - as opposed to consuming it in heaping portions at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dougo's house like I did last year - I feel like I'm being toyed with.
With BSG I feel that I'm told a distinct story every week even though the stories all fit into a much larger storyline. I guess Lost tries to do that with the flashbacks, but the flackback-stories don't really stand out by themselves; they're usually about as deep as "Once upon a time there was a woman but her husband was unfaithful and her mother drank. So she became bitter. The end."
