[QUOTE="Sarigar, post: 1964911, member: 16850"] The BG mini-series had very good moments, and a few "huh?" moments. I think the creators knew what direction they wanted to go in once they had a regular series deal and left a few moments in the mini due to this. Now that the regular series has started, I'm hooked even more. The human-type cylons, although the "are you human or (insert infiltrating being here)" paranoia schtick has been done before, is genious in this story. The original series, which I am old enough to just remember when they aired those many years ago, was very cheesy, but a lot of fun and completely 70's. If nothing else, this series has taken that camp feel, and turned it into a mind-screw, what with the human-like cylons. The battle scenes are top-notch, something I look for in a sci-fi series. I always look forward to the space battles in ST, B5, etc. These are realistic as sci-fi can get. The religious aspect sounds like an up-coming theme, especially for Gaius. I hope his story plays out better over the long run than it has in the short run. The navigator left on Caprica seems to have an important part to play in all of this. I wonder if they added him back in, because he seemed very minor in the mini-series. The cylons orchestrated quite a show to get a Boomer clone to join back up with him. I have to wonder if he is supposed to lead them to some kind of resistance group so they can destory the last vestiges of humans on the planet. Nice to see that the old Apollo will make an entrance at some point, and this time on the wrong side of the fight. As for the CGI cylons, they need work. They need to make a few full mock-ups to insert to a few scenes so we can have a good, shiny metal monstrosity look at them. Just looking at this post I can tell I will be watching this series. Not many shows get this much reaction out of me. [/QUOTE]
