Semi-glad to see Lee back.
Very glad to see Laura verbally beat up on Lee.
Adama and Tigh getting down to business together when the basestar shows up was great.
I love that Galactica doesn’t look all pretty and shiny.  It’s a nice touch that I think would’ve worked in favor of other shows like Star Trek: Voyager.
Nice […]

Drums starting right at the beginning = you know is going to be an action-packed cold open.  Yipee!
Tory actually doing her job and not acting bizarre nor sleeping with Baltar?  I love it!
Getting to see a jump from a window?  Amazing.  Just like watching that first jump to hyperspace through the viewport in the Millennium […]

Starbuck’s art; it’s just pretty to look at and makes sense that she would paint everywhere to try and sort things out.
Kara Thrace is more frakked up than ever and major kudos to Katee Sackhoff for being able to pull off that level of acting.
CGI space scenes make me smile. The close up of […]

Just finished watching last night’s episode, and here are my thoughts:

How amazing this cast is. Kudos for bringing back Kate Vernon, who is just phenomenal. Aaron Douglas (Chief Tyrol) acted his socks off in this one, as did James Callis (Baltar). And of course the awesome duo of Edward James Olmos […]
