My name is Cédric Bozzi and this is my blog. Well… mostly, this is a rerun of all my tweets and the photos I publish on Instagram, but sometimes there might be an actual article or two.

I make websites and iPhone apps, try my best to own one of every item in Apple’s current product lineup, spend my entire life on the internet, and am looking for a flat in Paris.

Battlestar Galactica 3.01–3.04 ★★★★★

Here’s another instance of my rating scale not going high enough to express how good this show is. There must be something about spaceships burning their way into the atmosphere — the Serenity vs. Reavers scene in atmo had hypnotized me (despite its dumbass “let’s turn one of our engines around!” resolution), and now for some reason I just want to kiss whichever writer thought of launching Vipers in mid-air.

<SPOILERS>

I’m a bit confused about female Cylons, though, and I’m beginning to think I’m not the only one. First there were two Sharons both having memories of serving on Galactica, even though Helo’s Sharon was born before the other died. Now we’ve got too many Sixes: Gaius is evidently with Caprica Six now, but the season 2 finale made me think it was Pegasus Six when she made some apologetic face at the mention of the nuke’s signature. Although Pegasus Six should be completely dead, since the Resurrection Ship was destroyed.

Ah, and while I’m in spoiler space, it obviously makes no real-world sense to sacrifice the Pegasus, which is more modern and feels more powerful than the Galactica, and it’s funny that Admiral Adama hadn’t began his own kamikaze maneuvers before his son showed up. But then the show isn’t called Battlestar Whatever Adama’s Commanding At The Moment.

</SPOILERS>

In closing, insert obligatory OMG Apollo WTF!!!!1! Poor guy. His career is so over.

Seriously, it’s a great, bold move for a season premiere (or finale for that matter, but I’d somehow not noticed then). But it’s also terribly detracting. I couldn’t focus on the story at all while he was on screen. I mean, much, much worse than when he made you want to scream “hottiiie” at the top of your lungs.
