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.

Not for Long! With Serenity the Movie coming out and some peoples exclamations of "It's better than the Original Star Wars!" (which i can believe) There's a lot of hope that instead of making more movies they'll attempt a second season, and there's nothing like a succesful movie to get the Dollar signs in the Executives Eyes [img]/threads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

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.

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