“snort’
OOkay, everyone is entitled to their opinion, i suppose.
Gosh what WILL we do if Ron does not podcast or heaven forbid, decided to work on another project. I guess that’s the end of all sci-fi for all time.
C’mon, there is a lapse of good sci-fi now but not forever.
It’s okay this BSG but the lack of good sci-fi leads peeps to create blanket statements like this which seem silly to me.
Critics and fans do this all the time…it’s marvelous, it’s the best sci-fi ever, when they said the same thing about a different show that aired year ago and guess what they will say the same thing in a few years about a new show.
There is not a clear rubric of making that kind of statement.
WHY? Why is this the greatest thing since sliced bread? i personally like Lucas’s THX1138 better than BSG for realism because it breaks the human down simply without all the F/X’s. It speaks to our need to conform, our spending habits. and a few other insights to what being human is.
I don’t need fireworks and scantilly clad babes to make it a good sci-fi show.
I personally did not like the beginning of this season, after “Scattered’ they seem to have settled down. I wasn’t impressed with the Cylon’s boarding the ship, we’ve seen Borg do that in ST, I wasn’t wowed by the younger Adama/ Tigh story, and i was underwhelmed by the “Saving Private Ryan” montage for Kobol.
But I’ll give you it some of the best-sci-fi now because hell there isn’t any and best TV now, again, what is there to compare it to?
We are talking the sci-fi channel not the big leagues , put it up against HBO, or do as they did put it on NBC they’ll get their ass wupped. Not because networks don’t like sci-fi, and all that stuff about bias to sci-fi.
I’m just tired of the constant propaganda for this show. if it’s sooo good then it should win awards right? And don’t BS me with the award givers have a bias against sci- fi. if it’s good enough, it should blow other out of the water regardless of past history.
I’m tired of the denigrating of sci-fi in the past, which was just as good albeit in a different way.
It’s like the Cylons vs. human right here right now. The “new” trying to upstage what has come before. All this teen agnst can get old too. When will it end?
