Look! Bananas!
I don't have standards for TV shows that require them to be subtle. I don't really pay attention to what I watch closely enough to pick up details, because I am totally distracted by shiny things. I also have several years' history of playing computer games with the TV on which have ruined my ability to actually sit still and pay attention to TV. This is why I totally fail at watching things like Fringe and Lost.
I have maybe not been paying attention, but has Zoe always had that giant tattoo on her back? Or is that a shadow? I didn't notice it until the dream at the beginning of this episode.
In other news: I? Am not at all as excited by the possibility of organic fractals as Wass is. Like, not even .1% as excited, and I feel like they should have done a better job of convincing me how awesome/statistically improbable/whatever that is. His fractal-rific dance made me laugh out loud though.
I don't think I like the fact that crazy space-bunny-baby Jen is the (only?) one who can't see Beta. I am not at all interested in the "Grey's Anatomy in space" description that they stuck on Defying Gravity, since I totally lost interest in Grey's when Izzie decided to spit on her medical ethics and best practice to try to save her boyfriend. So as soon as baby bunny showed up, I lost interest in Jen. And now it's clear that she and Rollie are going to fill the soap opera quotient of the plot lines, I think I'm buffered against regaining interest.
I'm glad that I don't have to keep watching Poe and wonder whether I should already know why he's limping, though. I'm surprised they held on to that until so late in the season.
Oddly, this is sort of the same problem I have with Glee. I watch the episodes, with my typical lack of attention-paying, and then spend the rest of the night trying to decide whether I'm over- or under-thinking it, because I am totally not reading some things as satire that I think ought to be, but I can't be bothered to really watch the show.
But mostly my problem with Glee is (still) how much shorter Lea is than Cory. So, so distracting, and it's even worse when she's clearly standing on something so that they can have a close-up shot.
