BSG WTFery

[exsequar]

So we watched a couple more BSG episodes tonight (we're getting so close omg! four left!) aaand.. WTF.


Yeah. WTF. Especially for Black Market. It felt... not like a BSG episode. It was all focused on Lee and all the other characters fell by the wayside, and this weird plot with the smuggling and stuff, but the biggest WTF is this random girl that Lee loved - we've never seen any mention of her before! And the flashbacks were so lame, it was like just three shots of her over and over - I know she's crying, THANKS! Now tell me why! *facepalm* I would have appreciated a bit more *depth* to that, like maybe... a name? I don't know, the whole thing felt off. Also - where the hell was Kara?! *frowns* You'd think she'd notice if Lee was getting this fucked up, and be there for him.

Scar was a little bit better, but it seemed like the same exact episode but just with Kara! She's hung up on a dead love too (1. How does she know he's dead? and 2. LOVE?!?!? WTF. W.T.F. It seemed like a one night fling, desperate people finding warmth in each other, and that's it! Suddenly she can't get him off her mind? Why now? She's gone most of the season without freaking out about him! Argh.) and is dealing with it really badly. By drinking. *sighs* Oh Kara. I didn't like the whole conflict with Kat - I don't know, I guess I've just never liked Kat much, and I hated seeing Starbuck's feet yanked out from under her like that. And the whole plot with the mining thing seemed very contrived, as did the sudden appearance of this "Scar", aaaaand.. the whole concept just felt overwrought, or something.

And of course, I must comment on THE scene. Ouch. Kara picturing Anders while making out with Lee? NOT what I had in mind. It does seem like the whole desire for a relationship is mostly coming from Lee. Though I keep coming back to when Kara yelled out Lee's name while having sex with Gaius! Yep, no feelings there at all. But ANYways, the last kiss was good and deep and clearly Kara was apologizing with that, and that kind of redeems the whole debacle a little bit.

Uh, Lee/Dee? WTF, guys, WTF. It has NO POINT WHATSOEVER. NO POINT. NONE. Is it just to make Lee look like a manslut? Got a whore over here who he's using as a substitute for a woman he apparently loved, got this girl he's leading along who has her own boyfriend and wants to know if it's "going anywhere", and then a best friend who he clearly wants to be something more. Um, make up your mind Lee! I just... don't understand >.<

...I hope things pick back up. I don't like being disappointed in something I love this fervently :(


Dean does not understand. Neither do I, darling *pets* Obliquely related to that, one of the pairings that came up at the awesome comm ithurtsmybrain was Kara/Dean. Um, GUH much? I kind of have a plot worked out that I'd like to write about them, but I really doubt my ability to characterize either of them well. But seriously. HOT.
