Battlestar Galactica ROCKS!
Tigh shocked the hell out of me. All that talk about sending men out to war and it was his duty. He had to stir up trouble to cover Adama’s intention in rescuing his people. So what, a few people died in the process. It was their duty to the cause. But man, I never, ever would have thought he’d murder Ellen, his wife.
Tigh is going to be hurting for a very, very long time. He loved Ellen dearly even though she was a slut, a hell raiser, and betrayer to her people. I doubt people will remember she sold out to the Cylons because she wanted to save Tigh and she loved him dearly.
When Galactica dropped out of space to unload its fighters and immediately jumped back, I jumped up and yelled. For a TV series, BSG has grand special affects for a television series. The powers put it to good use, something so lacking in Stargate Atlantis. The Daedalus is a high maintenance space ship that looks pretty. Galactica will crash and burn, get ugly, and fight to its death.
Poor Kara fell in love with Kacy only to learn later, she was not the girls’ mother. I believed Leoben just like Kara and thought Kacy was a hybrid like Hera. Leoben, of course, didn’t see the damage he did to Kara. It was heart wrenching for Kara, watching that woman reclaiming her daughter, Kacy. Kara hates Leoben. I can’t even imagine her feelings for him now. You know they will meet again.
I like Helo and Sharon as a couple. Lee and Dee, not so much. There is no chemistry between these two actors. There is no passion between them like Tigh and Ellen had. They are like two people working a business contract.
So the cylons want to experience human emotion. They despise the human race for enslaving them and yet they want to act human. They are a contradiction to themselves.
