I haven't been watching TSCC - I've been inhaling it. I had been told about the quality of this season, but it's still unexpected, how good this is, how entranced I am. It reminds of Angel S4, or BSG's run from 'Kobol's Last Gleaming' to the Pegasus arc. It's too good to be coherent about. I can just watch.
And now I know why this show was cancelled, of course. It was too smart for its own good. It passed the Bedchel test in almost every episode. It explored what it means to be human (a theme it has in common with BSG; my bullet-proof kink in sci-fi), and what it means to be a woman. A mother. What it means to be a warrior woman, with a woman's body, her weaknesses and her strengths, and who wants to watch that? /sarcasm
I will try to be coherent later, when I'm done with the season. But meanwhile, I insist that the last few episodes, from 2.12 to 2.16, were written personally for me.
