[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 3676825, member: 9037"] I don't have a problem with them giving the character more depth. Like they did with Sisko. But I don't want a BSG treatment that seems to asume that messier more human equates to being an alchoholic , druggie or even have dysfunctional relationship with your father. Or that if you are the last of your race and face being wiped out what you are going to do is start a blackmarket and one of the things being sold is children into sexual slavery. Sometimes I feel that BSG just lays on the evils of humanity with trowel instead of being more subtle. Half the time I find myself rooting for the cyclons because they are not killing and screwing each other over. You know that there are people who are very human who don't have to resort to booze or drugs to handle their messy lives. And you know that some families actually get along. If they want to show that Kirk swaggers to cover up his insecurities about his ability to command or he whores around because he is afraid of commitement that fine but if they want to show him a man who can't through a day without drinking then no I don't want to see that.
