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] 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."

BSG Rules!

Wow, only $2 per episode? That's awesome. They're doing an amazing job with the series. I know they'll make it to a seventh season because it's an amazing remake, and they found a way to keep it original...

I haven't seen the episode; I'm still waiting for it to come on TV :p

I was actually talking about buying Lost for $2; the new BSG isn't online yet. I watch both shows through iTunes now, though.
