BSG

simplisticton gave me a copy of the new (to me) Battlestar Galactica series. It is so awesome. I really regret not catching it from the beginning. Though one nice thing is that I'm not dealing with any commercials.

The Great

• Atmosphere: the cinematography, the music
• Scripts: Several characters were believeable from day one, which is rare. There's a few that are still caricatures, but less and less so.

The Awful

• The use of "frak" everytime a character would normally say "fuck." Very distracting.

The Funny

• The fact that they use obsolete technology and pray to COBOLKobol.

Yeah, he talks about a lot of that in his blog too.

I found a torrent with all of season 1 including the miniseries, so I grabed that.
