Battlestar Galactica 1.1, Trek and Fusion

[jeffreyab]

Canada had the premiere of the series last night and I for one did enjoy it.

The atmosphere and tension of the Cylon chase was good, I love the ambiguity of Dr. Beltar's situation is he inhabited by nanotech or crazy or is this just how he thinks? The contrast between the monotheistic Cylons and the pantheistic COlonials is interesting I wonder where they are going with it. I am curious as to how the Caprica story line will go. Hard to fight an insurgency when you can't steal the enemies hand weapons because they are his actual hands.

Enterprise had a good episode, reminded me of the M5 episode of original Trek but in a more human way.

Less than a week to ConFusion do you have you room booked?

I've seen the first 10 episodes of the new Battlestar Galactica (and have the 11th) and it's quite good though it took me awhile to get used to, being a huge fan of the original.

There are many logical problems with it, but overall it's good.

I don't like how the two elements that you mention. Dr. Baltar over acts and at times, it's really silly.

The Caprica story is bad (so far) and detracts from the main story.

Thats too bad, its not so annoying at first I guess.

Do you have any theories as to why they inserted it?

It gets really silly when he acts like a complete idiot in front of others and nobody calls him on it.

Of course, I have a theory, but then, I have a theory on EVERYTHING :)

As I've seen many episodes, the Caprica story is unfolding, but it's still not entirely clear where it's headed. I don't want to ruin it for you, but I think that it will be clearer as you watch the show.
