Yeah I've been trying to pin that down too without success. Last season I was on the edge of my seat when an episode was on, this season I usually have to convince myself to watch it. I think my big problem with TWK (and a lot of recent eps) is that they took no chances in it. It was a straightforward bad guy doc and Helo rides to the rescue plot wrapped up entirely too neatly in the end. If they'd left it murky or, better still, had Cottle and/or Tigh aware of what the doc was up to and consciously turning a blind eye (either for racist or pragmatic reasons) I would've really dug the episode.
It was too neat and tidy by far. And dammit if they don't give me a good Starbuck episode soon I may give up on the series entirely. The 10:00 Sunday night crap isn't helping much either.
