My reactions to the miniseries: They did a relatively good job of explaining why impossibly old tech would even be in use on a starship. Also, the Cylons did not seem to make much sense. I mean, they didn't necessarily have to attempt the extinction of humanity, espeically with the option for d

I watched the first half of this last night. I guess my first reaction was: it doesn't suck. I was a huge fan of the original show though I don't think I've seen an episode in 20 years (haven't picked up the DVD collection yet). I thought most of the changes were OK. I thought the idea that th

Surprised there hasn't been more discussion about this on-list. Did anyone dislike it? I have a running debate on my gaming list about its merits (or de-merits). On its own I thought it was pretty good and entertaining. Compared to the original its MUCH better (I thought the original a bit corny).
