woah ... ok - i have to admit - this show is good.
well crafted, great effects - probably the best i've ever seen for a TV show...
most of the characters are strong (with a couple of definite exceptions)
i'm impressed.. and from what i heard the show gets better as it progresses..
looks like i have me some new treadmill walking material

Quite possibly my favorite show of all time. I think that Season One is brilliant, Season 2 is even better, while Season 2.5 and the beginning of Season 3 is breathtaking and AMAZING. I am ridiculously impressed at how they construct strong AND believable female characters (Starbuck is my hero). Hope you continue to enjoy it.

Yeah, I like BSG a lot.
The last season/split season was a little bit disappointing by comparison, but the show remains watchable, for sure...lots of twists and turns, and you'll think things you don't quite expect right now.
The space battles are done beautifully, I remember that first explosion, the oppressive silence of it...the sets, the effects, the cast, and the music are all with little peer in this days tv.

Agreed. I'd say that the latter half of Season 3 and Season 4 were both ridiculously disappointing - Too much drama and too much divergence from the major plot points (and too many autonomous episodes as opposed to grand over-reaching plot arcs).
That being said, I'm psyched for it to start up again (and ridiculously impatient too).

Yesterday I watched
WALL·E
And. Wow.
Beautiful. Stunning. Touching.
To tell you the truth, when I heard that there was minimal writing and voicework, I was concerned that I'd be bored... But far from it.
I fully agree with The Penguin:

5/5 See it.
