So, finally watched Caprica

Interesting backstory on the origins of the Cylons. The clash between the dominant polytheism and nascent monotheism alternated between intriguing and annoying me. Given where things ended up by the end of BSG, annoying sort of dominated. Not sure I'll sustain enough interest to watch more of it, if it gets picked up. Considering I can't even be arsed to see if it's been already, probably not.

Was amused to see the cigarette-smoking man from the X-Files as Minister of Defense. Was more amused that throwing "cigarette-smoking man" into the search box on IMDB was enough to turn up his profile and confirm it was the same actor.

*looks @ other DVD that was brought to work*

Maybe it would've been a better idea to watch "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" before the rather more modern and high-tech sci-fi stuff rather than after. *facepalm*

Then again, aside from the occasional "Wait! *rewind* Was that a useful canon fact I actually might want to know?" moments, I'm finding that at least this super-early DW stuff is mostly background noise while I do homework anyway, so I suppose it doesn't matter.

Oh, yeah. Good thing I did show to work tonight. The blurry stuff inside the box that had been drawn over my initial on the schedule did not, apparently, actually indicate that someone else was working after all. Still no idea WTF happened there.
