Woe Upon Your Cylon Heart!

Do you like Alias? Do you like BSG? THEN CHECK OUT THE FIC yahtzee63 WROTE ME, IT IS THE GREATEST THING OF ALL THINGS, So Say We All. You will find:

- Commander Bristow
- President Derevko
- Super Scientist Arvin Sloane
- Lieutenant Calfo
- and pilots Oracle, Shotgun, Outrigger, Houdini, Merlin, Shotgun and Phoenix.

I legitimately could not love it any more than I do.

IT'S NOT EVEN TEN YEARS OLD YET, GODDAMN.

Again, it’s only very initial talk at this point, but I’m told that the development folks over at the Alphabet network are considering doing a new version of Alias that would borrow some elements of the original series…..But the series would most likely not include any sort of complex mythological throughline such as the Rambaldi prophecy (a storyline that lost some of the fans).

I don't think this will actually happen, but I AM NERVOUS JUST THE SAME. MY BABIES!!!

Edit: I just watched the ad for JJ's new show, which looks absolutely delightful, but they use so many damn locations from Alias episodes that I find really jarring.

It's kind of weird that the last two times I've started watching what would become my epic TV obsession, they've both been on memorable days. I started watching Alias on Christmas Eve- I remember because I didn't realize how long the pilot was, and I had to pause it before the end so that I could go to mass. (I later realized I stopped it like, a minute before the end, heh.)

Then with BSG, I started watching it the day of the finale. At least, I count that as my first day- I knew it was airing, and when it ended, I went to the wikipedia to see what had happened to the President and the Admiral that my friend Yubs was so into. Then I saw that SciFi SyFy was playing it again, so I put it on in the background. And it made me sob. I was doing my taxes and bawling over Lauroslin's tragic death when I started downloading the mini.

Which makes today my one year anniversary. :-D

So thanks, show, (and yubsie!) for all the joy, inside jokes, agony, icons, new friends, new fic and glory that the past twelve months have held.

Day 03 → Your favorite television program

So, the way I felt as this day of this meme approached is best explained in a quote from Jessie Spano: "I'm so excited! I'm so excited! I'm so... so... scaaaaared." Because it meant I had to choose my TV show, and that would've always been an easy answer before, but NOW IT IS NOT. So I've been thinking about this since before I even started the meme and now... now I'm ready.

( You think I'm kidding, but it was an effing battle royale in my heart about this. )

So that's embarrassingly long winded.
