I hated the religion on Deep Space Nine. I was so bored by it I stopped watching.
Wow! It was a major keeping-point, for me. I want to write academic papers about it. The transformative journeys of Sisko and Kira were amazing and wonderful for me to vicariously experience. To each her own!
The Cardiff fountain -- hee.
Ah, I should have known that you would know "By the Waters of Babylon." (Then again, you have said more than once that you are not really into SF. Yet you are familiar with so many good early SF stories and books! I love the mystery that is you.) I first read it in an anthology when I was nine or ten. Then I ran into it in a junior-high English literature book that one of my softball teammates brought to practice one afternoon. I, um, think I helped her get an A on the test....
If Six is not still in Baltar's heard, I will be very upset with the producers. She needs to be there. All will be right with the world in the end if only she still resides in Baltar's head and whispers to him while someone else is talking.
I think that I ran into references that Caprica Six, who came back from the Base Star with Athena after she'd convinced Helo to shoot her so that she could be reborn over there and then grab their child and find a way to return to the Galactica... um, Caprica Six is now on Galactica, and did I see references to her being in a relationship with Tigh...?!!! Yuck.
I am totally tired of the Leoben model. I loathe his every moment of existence. And I am freaked out by Brother Cavil. The scenes played underneath Ellen Tigh were simply too much. Yuck. And what he did to the Chief was just evil. Screwing with his mind, when the Chief was there trying to get counseling for having beaten Cally so badly. (I know -- ancient history!)
