(and i've never been so fond of ballard as when he said "you got a problem?" haha squeal!) great review, sonia! i completely agree about boyd…i really miss him, and after re-watching season 1, have a new-found appreciation for him and his talent. he and echo had a great dynamic that can't really be replaced.

This episode was top-to-bottom excellent. Given the combination of creepy and downright hilariousness, I wasn't at all surprised to see that it was written by the mighty Tim Minear. That man is so talented it hurts, and he found precisely the right tone for all the characters. Other than Kiki-Victor's club scene, my favorite moment has to be the reaction shot of Adelle in her office watching Ballard tell Terry-Victor how sick and wrong he is for retreating from the real world in favor of controlling his living mannequins. It's so subtle, but she clearly has a moment of "That applies to me." Her self-reflection is beautifully painful in light of 'Epitaph One'. And, in fact, all of Ballard's joyfully vicious interrogation was just as fantastic. I'm glad they're giving him a broader range to play here than he got on <i>BSG</i>, because he's clearly got the chops for it. Gah! Stupid baseball making us wait another week for the next episode. :( I have to agree. This episode was top-to-bottom excellent.

Last week I was all maudlin and "They can take the show away and I won't care" but after watching this episode, they better not take my show away! (And they're not! It got picked up for the rest of the season yay!) Victor is AMAZING. I absolutely LOVED his turn as Kiki, and he got to cuddle with Ballard somewhat! I'm all about that!!!! I know a lot of people have problems with Ballard's sort of creepy stalker "I love Echo" attitude, but I actually kind of like it. A lot. I almost feel like Ballard's obession is more with Caroline than Echo, so it could be an interesting turn when/if Ballard starts to fall for Echo. I like relationships that are born for weird places. Also, Ballard is hot. I also totally forgot Summer Glau was going to be on the show! When they showed a little video of her in the promo they used an old Terminator promo thing and I thought for a horrible second that that show came back. Thank God it didn't.
