This show is so frakkin' good, it deserves it's own thread.

 

What do you think of the show, what are you expecting in the coming episodes, what moved you the most so far, comparisons to the 1980 series, favorite characters, anything about it, post it here!

 

I shed a tear when they removed the vale off the Blackbird in ''Flight of the Pheonix''

 

And I think Starbuck is pregnant with Baltar's child.

 

Best show on television!!!

 

Oh and yes, I searched before I threaded.

Good tv show. I can only watch it when it comes on DVD, my area doesn't get the sci-fi channel.

What makes it good? What do you like about it?

 

Caracters, action scenes, babes?

BSG is good all around. When Ron Moore left Star Trek, he took the quality that made DS9 interesting with him, it seems. So far the whole thing has been very well done plotwise.

 

Of course, you have wonderful actors in some important roles. I actually think it's quite a scoop that they got Edward James Olmos to be the new Adama. He didn't seem right to me when I first heard he had the role, but I must admit that he does a brilliant job. I also love how deep he really is, which naturally is the foundation for the dissent between him and Cain in the recent Pegasus arc. The fact that he too plots against her is nail-bitingly scary.

 

And Jim Callis is brilliant as Baltar - so much more interesting than the incredibly stereotypical Baltar of the original show. Baltar is still a traitor, but he's not really an enemy - he's just willing to betray the others to save his own neck. My biggest fear recently has been that he would be president if Roslyn died.

 

Then there are the visual effects, of course. It's easy (though expensive) fodder for the fans, but boy are there many ships on screen during the fights!

 

I also think the music does much for this show, since it's quite different to most we've heard before. The fights are underscored by solo drums, while Baltar's hallucinations have their own distinctive music.

I say that the series is good and I find it incredibly funny that Richard Hatch (the origional Apollo) is the criminal idologist on the prison barge.

BG robots >>>> StarWars robots

I thought Starbuck was a guy

For some reason they seem to have changed his gender in the remake.

 

But yeah, the original was a guy, according to google.

Of course Starbuck was a guy!! He was Face from The A-Team.

yep yep.. the original was good, but the remake of it is alot better.. to me its not like a tv series you would normally watch.. its almost like watching a movie each week.. :D very well done.. I hope the star wars tv series they are talking about doing, is as good...

Its my favorite show on TV.

It was a plesant surprise the first time I watched it and I have enjoyed the second season as well.. The character development is done very well. Each of the characters have their own issues amongst the bigger issue (war , and the possible extinction of the human race)

 

Lots of suprises to finding out who will be the next cylon etc..

Starbuck pregnant....yuck!

What about that general (who played in Bonanza)? Is he a she now too?

I like the new version of Battlestar Galactica, much better than that archaic tv series from the 1970

Don't know if she's my favorite on the show - Adama is pretty complex - but she sure is funny: "You should leave - I'm getting an urge to strike another superior ****" :D

It is so refreshing to see strong women in leading roles.

What you

I guess I'm just making fun of people who say stuff like that.

Ah. I should spend less time with myself, since I have a dirty mind. :"> :D

Also, I like to get down to business watching women in leading roles.
