I tried to watch it... Didn't have the patience for it.

It is such a dark, paranoid, angst-ridden show with little to no hope ever highlighted to give you something to look forward to. Besides the fact that they spend more time fighting themselves than they do the Cylons, Baltar is a pathetic excuse for a villain, and none of the characters are very likeable.

The special effects were very nice at first, but then the shaky camera effect got to be overdone, making it hard to tell what was going on in the shot half the time.

Sorry if I'm making some enemies here, but BSG is not that great of a show.. The acting is good, the production quality is good... I don't know, maybe I'm getting old, but the whole dark, angst-thing that Buffy popularized is very overdone.



Now.. wait til I get my helmet on before you start tossing tomatoes...

I know this isn't art related but...

Anyone else watching the new BSG? I think it is THE best show on tv. I am mental for the show! Last week's episode was amazing. I think I pee'd a little!

I've been watching since the beginning of LAST season, when they found the Pegasus. I can't go a week without seeing the new 'Battlestar' and the nw 'Heroes'.

Battlestar, Heroes, and LOST all have my attention. Great concepts and great writing.

Like I said, I think it's a well-produced show. If I were to boil down my displeasure with it, it would come down to the writing. As good as the writing is, it's all tension and pain. I want a show that has a certain amount of hope and heroics, not conspiracy theories, back-stabbing, paranoia and cyber-sex.

I get enough of that from watching the daily news.. which is probably why I don't watch it.

Mr. Majesty,

...interesting take but I would say that if you are looking for Hope and Heroics then you have indeed found them. are they displayed every episode in close up detail? nope. the hope and heroics reside within the grand scheme of the show. the will of humanity and its desire to survive. hope...given the constant set backs they are still willing to go one...still willing to fight to live. if anything...I would the say that the overriding theme is that of what you seek....hope.

on the otherside...dark and angsty. agreed, but no more so than any number of shows out there. given the level of quality that they attempt to put in here I would say they are doing a durn fine job...even more so as they are doing it within the sci-fi genre...


...in regards to hurlin tomato's? naaah...I like em for my s'ghetti sauce...and as such I offer a hearty handshake instead for the willingness to be different and the openess to accept critiques on your views even when they run counter to the popular consensus. ~

That is DEAD ON! I'm partial to Starbuck (I have a little crush on her), but this Apollo is my favorite!

Cyber! Great great work!! I love it!

Like MM said, we are huge fans. Apollo (new) is my fav! Mind if I use this pic for my MSN avatar??

I hope you do more, and colour? Again, you should send these to the show. They WOULD love these.

FYI- Your BSG pics DID warm up my morning...and the 2 XL coffees I had :P
