Latest on BG

A few notes on Battlestar Galactica.

1) As reader Irene Done has noted, the show used to be about escaping from the Cylons and finding Earth. Now it's about finding all the Cylons to get to Earth.

2) As reader Lawrence King has noted, the problem with the show is the exact opposite of Star Trek: TOS. That show was about treating whole planets like small communities. BG is about treating what is essentially a small community in space as if it were a planet.

3) I don't need to hear Gaeta sing any more.

4) Boy, Sharon sure shoots people at inopportune moments.

5) I like that they're leading to some exciting moments, but I think they're getting there a little too slowly.

6) I can't be the first to notice how similar the Hybrid is to Samantha Morton in Minority Report.
