POLL: BSG Patron Takes
Added 2024-06-18 18:14:14 +0000 UTCFor those watching the FULL UNCUT reactions of BSG with us here on Patreon
We have always done the episode coming next for Star Trek (episodic) and now we are doing the last posted episode for Game of Thrones (serialized).
Battlestar Galactica seems to be mostly serialized, but still has episodic plots. Would you prefer the takes to be for the episode that last posted or the episode coming up next?
Comments
Last posted seems safer, There are so many plots and threads we together you would thought this was a 19th century blanket on a loom Itโs too easy to pull the wrong thread and snagged the whole blanket

2024-06-20 11:59:59 +0000 UTCJust for clarification, you posted the takes as for S1E5... but for the last episode, which was "Act of Contrition," correct? (Where we delve into the Starbuck and Zak backstory) That episode is S1E4, as the miniseries is not counted as part of the Season.

2024-06-19 13:56:34 +0000 UTCLast posted is preferable for serialized or even semi serialized shows because due to serialization episodes tend to blur together in my mind, asking for patron takes for the next episodes risks getting accidentally spoiled because people think what they talk about will be in this episode when it isn't. This even happened during a cast interview when one of the BSG actors blurted out a spoiler because he assumed it was in the episode he was asked about when in reality it was in the next and hadn't aired yet. Oops.

2024-06-18 23:53:26 +0000 UTCLast posted because of the episodic nature. I remember the broad strokes but a lot of the minutiae isnโt there.

2024-06-18 21:54:53 +0000 UTCLast posted, but at the very begining you have to do a relly fast talking recap of everything we are about to talk about ๐คช

2024-06-18 19:31:11 +0000 UTCWe will be doing a discussion at the end of the season if thatโs what you mean

2024-06-18 19:28:58 +0000 UTCWe will consider it for season 2 if we continue

2024-06-18 19:28:29 +0000 UTCEither would be fine, what I would love is, every episode full discussion. Maybe one day. :-)

2024-06-18 19:17:48 +0000 UTCLast posted would probably be more advisable given the nature of the show.

2024-06-18 18:49:41 +0000 UTCLast posted but potentially discuss at the end of seasons, or where the mid season breaks were.

2024-06-18 18:31:48 +0000 UTCLast posted gets my vote just because of how the show progresses.

2024-06-18 18:26:53 +0000 UTCI'm not voting in this because I don't care about BSG at all, but as the show progresses you're gonna find it becomes less and less episodic. So maybe include that in your considerations.
