Fly me to the moon

[cyrano]

Finally took my first sip of the kool-aid and watched the Battlestar Galactica miniseries. It took me two hours, but I finally got excited sometime around the big meet up at Ragnar. I love the recognition that combat in space is not like air combat in WWII--it's been a while since I've seen that in science fiction. It's occasionally very obvious that ZOIC is doing the f/x, and that makes me smile. It's weird adjusting to the 'sound in space' thing again, but I'm trying hard to pretend it's part of the score. I really like a television show that presents characters with hard choices that have no 'right' answer. And I'm assuming that sometime during the series Starbuck becomes 'cool' because so far I'm not seeing it.

She is cool and she is very talented and she is also flawed.

In fact, every single character in that show is very, very deeply flawed in one way or another. Expect those flaws to make you wince from time to time.
