apropos of absolutely nothing

I would pay money to see somebody choreograph a contemporary ballet pas de deux to the song "Gaeta's Lament" from Battlestar Galactica. It would be a beautiful adagio, morphing into something huge and powerful when the drums kick in. Alternatively, do it on ice, with some really athletic side-by-side and throw jumps at the end.

I never had it in me to be a professional dancer, but there is and always will be a choreographer living in a back corner of my head, drafting movement to the music I'm hearing.

The show didn't . . . bore me, per se, but it never really hooked me. I attach to characters first and foremost, and while I thought BSG had some who were interesting, I didn't really care about any of them. So when I heard the writing went sharply downhill in S3 and S4, I figured I should quit where I was.
