I ask because i read reviews bad things about BG and when i watched i found it a good show (my only gripe are the scenes where the camera keeps zooming in and out at random... it makes me dizzy)

You mean in the space scenes? I quite like that, It's a nice touch in my opinion, I also like the way they use music (mainly percussion and drums) in the titles, tense moments and space battles. It's quite original

Yeah I love it too. Did you see (of course you did) that extreme zoom in of the Galactica at Ragnar station, after the FTL jump in. The huge Galactica was still small against the storm background, just beautiful photography.
I keep seeing intresting teasers from upcoming episodes. Hero doing some urban combat with cyclons. Starbuck trying to fix a messy looking (bio ship?) spacecraft. Baltar requesting a nuke? Can't wait! I love this show. DANG! I work tonight!

Do what I do, turn on the VCR, record Galactica AND the rest of the shows. I don't have to work, but going out on Fridays keeps the significant other happy. You know how it works.

The latest episode - Richard Hatch guest-stars, which should come as no suprise if anyone has seen the opening credits. I enjoyed this episode as well. Very tense writing. I also enjoyed the two SG episodes prior. Any chance of a Replicator shipset, AT?

Still happy. And I agree, Geo. Sci-fi will be complained about; it's the nature of the fanbase. In the end, I would guess that most are happy it exists, despite it's imperfections.

Just a quick note for those who commented the distinctive style of the CG work. It's done by a studio called ZOIC, which first created the "handycam" style for Joss Whedon's SF series Firefly. In fact, the ship from Firefly has a cameo in the miniseries.

I once worked with a back stabbing SOB like the Baltar character. I do hope that at some point we get to see his sinivling back stabbing *** spaced. Ohhhhh that would be sweet.

The imperfections, albeit annoying, are sufforable so long as they remain minor, and the series continues. [img]/threads/images/graemlins/Smile.gif[/img]

Firefly was an intersting series. I liked the song they used in the lead in. To bad the series was cancelled.

I started a Replicator set for Stars! a few years ago (I don't have it anyore). They're not too difficult. Once you have made the first chip, you can build everything else with it.

Episode 13 - Simply excellent. The series is getting better and better. The ending was - TOTALY UNEXPECTED.

Tell me about it! It's driving me crazy that it's the last episode of the season.
