FINE. I started the other day. I finish season 1 tonight. I never got to read the BSG threads on the old board. I like it - clearly.

I'm stuck on season 3. I am having to force myself to watch it because I'm really hating the season thus far.

Oh that's a bummer :/

Know you'll be hooked! Bwahaha!

And yeah, Ssn 3 isn't all that great. I did like all the stuff with

Spoiler: show

though.

BSG is maybe my favorite of all time. I spent ages talking it up to my husband, who acted like it was going to be terrible, and then he finally agreed to watch the DVDs with me and we got through it in less than a month. We watched the last season in 3 days! I love me some BSG.

I LOVE Battlestar Galactica. There are a couple episodes that were clunkers but for me it is probably the greatest show ever. I love the cheif.

We just started watching BSG this month and have finished Season 1.

We're taking a break right now and catching up on some other shows (Parks and Recreation, actually), but then we'll be back. I like BSG, but don't love it (compared to some of the iterations of Star Trek).

The first rule of Battlestar (and Lost): don't read anything on the internet about Battlestar (or Lost). EVER. Unless you like to have the show spoiled!

I didn't realize it could go so wrong so quickly! I have learned my lesson. Sigh.

We just signed up for Netflix last night and started watching. I'm going to spend the weekend catching up on episodes that he watched while I was at work last night.

Mr Hana bought this and I was all 'what a nerd!', 'ugh, you'll have to watch it when I'm not in' etc (I'm not a nice person), but then he was watching it when I was reading and then I was all 'who's that?' 'why is she doing that?' 'what happened when I was in the bathroom'. So yeah, BSG won me over by osmosis!

Watching Battlestar is like alternating between reading Dostoevsky and the worst Captain Janeaway/Seven of Nine BDSM slash fiction the internet has to offer.

BSG won me over with this

molly · **Posted:** Wed Jan 19, 2011 12:40 pm

Yes, please.

The second time through the series, I really noticed how absolutely stellar the acting is. It's crazy that James Callis (Baltar) was never nominated for any awards. He's just amazing.

Of COURSE there's Janeway/7of9 slash fiction - it never occurred to me, but it does seem obvious. (I love Voyager)

I'm watching the last ep of season 2 right now and it is HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE? When does it get better? How much of this do I have to endure until it gets better???

I just realized that bisque Cain is the maenad from TrueBlood, which might partly account for my immense hatred of her. Partly.

AHA! I never realized! Odd - Ro never bothered me that much. Maybe it's the long hair and the lack of fun accessories.
