I really liked this show. I am pretty sure I just watched it as it was shown on Netflix, which turned out fine.

Yeah or it might make his head explode. Who knew it could be such a challenge watching a TV show. I just watched it in order from the Box set which mirrored the Netflix order.

This show suffered from the same problem as all sci-fi shows--money. The space battles were too expensive to do a lot, so they overloaded parts of seasons with 'slice of life' episodes in the fleet. Those are fine sprinkled here and there, but three or four of them in a row simply doesn't work.

Spot on. Star Trek suffered from money problems as well. The degradation of special effects quality in the 3rd season was solely due to the studio stripping their budget.

Anyone here anxious for Battlestar Galactica series to start on SciFi?

At first wasn't to thrilled with all the changes they made but it was still pretty good. I still feel they changed to much of the story but I'm willing to adapt to the new storyline.

Ugh...no way! I can handle tweeks...but to replace starbuck with a woman is just...just...not right!

Ha! It's hilarious reading this thread from the beginning.

Starbuck was a decent character but why is she swinging an arrow at a cylOn, what is that going to do, bruise it?

And Starbuck is a bad ass at times, but she appears to know as much about martial arts as I do. That fight with number 6 was awkward at best.

My wife made me turn off the show because it was making me angry.

Good post, Mulli!

I actually had a love hate relationship with this show. I loved certain things about it and hated others. I still think it was a good show. Just things pissed me off. Not surprising considering who was running this thing.

It was odd to call it a reboot only to reference a previous war which was a perfect setup for a continuation of the original show (pretending Galactica 1980 never happened). The CGI with some of the Cylons was ridiculously bad. I would rather have seen an updated version of guys running around in armor. You could have used that sparingly considering the human looking models were introduced.

The new show had some really cool characters and I actually enjoyed the new take on several of the characters. The effects in other places were simply bad ass.

For everything I loved about the show something just pissed me off. Like I said love/hate type thing but I still enjoyed it and was happy it had a decent run.

Halfway thru season 3. So far...awesome!!! I know it is supposed to go downhill now, but I still love this series!

I loved it.

 

[Mulli]

I loved it.

I hated every minute of it.

I hated every minute of it.

It's roughly 3,500 minutes long. I'm trying to picture what life would be like for someone that willingly sat in front of a TV for 3,500 minutes, watching something they hated every minute of. My sympathies. Did you ever consider changing the channel?

I'm pretty sure this is what happened.

I fast-forwarded a lot to get to the end to see if I was missing something. I wasn't. I guess it wasn't every minute, why would anyone care?

Man this thread is making me want to re-start the series again. hmmmm

LOL. No, it turns out he just fast forwarded to the end. I figure most digital devices fast forward at roughly 4 times normal speed so he only had to sit through about 18 hours. He's more patient than I am. If I hate something I just stop watching it.

I was thisclose to writing exactly this:

"I loved it.

Mulli hated it."

Ha! I also loved to torment Chandler Mike with how much I didn't like it.
