But just heard about this, need to share.

Trailer for the pilot Caprica! Which reminds me a) how much I miss BSG, and b) how hot Esai Morales is, which is weird as he's playing Apollo's granddad.

My mind. Is blown.

( Warning for heavy spoilers )

I had a totally and completely random dream - about Jamie Bamber! (of Battlestar Galactica and Hornblower fame). I don't even like him with the exception of a brief obsession with the Bamceps, but yeah, random.

The dream was thus:

We were on this ship - a modern ship but not an ugly cruise liner. The ship's interior was all dark mahogany, rich finishings, sumptuously furnished in a dark red/gold/brown theme. It wasn't too crowded but there were heaps of people there. It had like a French Colonial turn-of-the-century feel to it.

We were divided into cabins for the trip and lo and behold, Jamie was in mine! My friend (who is NOT a BSG fan) had no idea why I was freaking out in frantic whispers and she did the classic, wondering aloud. "Whose Jamie Bamber?" At the top of her voice. His attention, of course, was promptly attracted to which I must've blushed.

But me being obstinate, I immediately played it cool. I marched up to him and asked matter of factly, "Hi, can I please take a picture with you? battlestar_blog would appreciate my write up of the experience of being so close to you!" *smiles insanely, thinking I wanted to squeeze the Bamceps*

He's taken aback, then roars with laughter and acquiesces. I frantically hunt for my camera then fumble with it interminably while he watches with a smirk on his face. I catch his eye and stick my tongue out inpertinently, which just makes him laugh some more.

He's v nice though and takes a picture with me (putting his arms around me and everything! Honestly I think I love his arms more than anything else). We sit down, my friend rolls her eyes (thinking it is the last of the experience), but then Jamie promptly asks whether I'd like to see pics of his daughters. He has new pics and is proud to show them off. I eagerly agree much to my friend's disgust and he shows me pics on his ipod/vid thingy. Then more pics, and then MORE PICS. There are so many pictures of small girls I can oooh and aaaah and wow, she's soooo cute, she totally looks like you, oh, is that your lovely wife to before I run out of material.

But it's ok, b/c he finally gets to the end. He hugs me and I blurt out that I love his arms, and he laughs. Again.

Random!

This episode was ... wow. It wasn't punchy like "He That Believeth in Me" nor as interesting as "Six of One", but the ending - really socked you in the gut and more.

( HUGE Spoilers ... )

It's been a while since I've been compelled to rave about anything, much less a TV show. But rave I will, b/c ... BSG is back! I didn't know how much I'd missed it until I saw the premiere ... waiting with bated breath to see when it showed up on the net. And then I watched it and it was WHOA!

( Spoilers for Season 4 )

My BSG love is being rebooted as we speak.

I love these new credits. *dies* Please note spoilers for Season 3 (and 4, obviously)!
