two -- no wait, three -- things

[merrily]

First, Mercedes McNab is posing nude for Playboy. Whedonesque alerted me to this VIF, but has now taken down the link. I'm bemused that someone thought it Wasn't Cool to tell the world they could see Harmony naked.

It would be awesome if there was fake blood involved, but no, they're having her "[play] coquette in a decadent beaux arts pictorial".

Also, I didn't think of it 'till now, but how awesome is it that there was a vampire who was called "Harm"?

Second, where's my Douglas Petrie? Does dude have an official website? IMDB lists 'The 4400' as his most recent credit, and this is a crime.

ETA: Oh look, there's a tag for Doug+Petrie @ whedonesque. Oh look, he's going to work on CSI.

Hm. I have my doubts about the brilliant hilarity of Doug Petrie mixing well with CSI. But I will watch! Because I love him! (Astronauts win.)

Thirdly, BSG? The season two finale? Cain! And the Cylon interrogator! And the badness! I couldn't handle some of the scenes and had to skip forward through them with the sound off. And I didn't expect to suddenly find sympathy for Gaius, but I totally did. Gaius! With the crying! And Tricia! With the being abused and broken! Really, it was almost too frakkin' much. Also, why is there no Kara/Lee action yet? And what's with the Dee/Lee thing? I don't like it. Notatallatallatall.

Have I missed the season three opening ep?

ETA: No. October 6. That is fucking far away.

The second season was split between Season 2.0 (2.01 through 2.10) and Season 2.5 (2.11 through 2.20) and is split into two separate DVD packages. If you've got it from Netflix or Amazon you'll have to order the second half, or catch the reruns. Personally I'd advise catching the reruns or renting the second set rather than buying, as the second half of Season 2 is pretty uneven. There's some great stuff in it, and it picks up towards the end, but there are a couple of pretty lousy episodes in there. On the bright side, it sounds from the podcasts like Moore & Co. are aware there were some problems with 2.5 and aren't living in a dream world where everything is wonderful. Self-awareness is half the battle.
