Twelve Toasters
Apr. 20th, 2008 07:15 pmThis morning at church I was glancing over the readings before mass and caught something about "then the Twelve gathered blah blah blah." There was a second there where I seriously thought, "The twelve Cylons?"
I'm sure the twelve apostles/twelve Cylons thing is something I've noticed before. I guess I just never really...caught it at the right angle before, if that makes sense. Like the knowledge was there, it just wasn't focused, mixed up with all of the other symbolism and parallels. So now we've got Jesus Baltar and the twelve Cylons. They could form a band. Perform Christian techno or something.
Anyway, I'm finding the Cylons more interesting than most of the humans. I think I've always found them more interesting. And then they started pushing those angsty love plotlines with the humans which pretty much left me cold and bored. Though in general I think I'm just as interested in both sides' overall quests.
But watching this current season really makes me want to go back and watch season one again. See how people have changed, how they's stayed the same.
I'm thinking that this summer when I'm house-sitting in Seattle I'm going to take Farscape with me and rewatch a chunk of that, too. I miss it!
