[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] The Sci-Fi Channel has never shown Dead Like Me, though. Galactica's timeslot will be filled by its own reruns. (I think they just start from the beginning of the season again.) And, I hear that the British broadcasts start, like, now, and continue straight through, so that by the time they get around to starting up again in the U.S., you all will be ahead by a few weeks. Not that I have any sources. After this episode I thought for awhile about rape in TV drama, but I couldn't really gather my thoughts together, beyond thinking that it might be interesting to compare this episode to Jubal Early's threat in Firefly's "Objects in Space." I guess the problem is that rape, as a symbol, is so. . . serious, so [i]loud[/i], maybe, in this sort of semiotic sense, that unless it's treated properly (and I don't pretend to know what I mean by that; I'm certainly not claiming that Battlestar Galactica didn't), it can unbalance things. If that makes any sense. Put a rape in a story that's not, I don't know, mature enough to really handle it and you get an offensive mess. But again, that was my brief digression as caused by this episode, and not really about it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
