So, BSG

[tocryabout]

I dropped some cash on the DVDs a while ago, purely on the strength of LJ recommendation. Also because I found Starbuck and Roslin cute and wanted to get in on some of that.

Tonight was the first time I actually sat down and watched it, and I just finished the miniseries. My lame thoughts:

1. I will never get tired of father-son angst.
2. Boxey is the same kid from X2, right?
3. What a blatant fucking ripoff of Siddig El Fadil, and not even as charming. Fun anyway, though.
4. Lee = pretty, but I always kind of resent liking the eye candy. You can't manipulate me, networks!
5. Why did they bother having Starbuck look so dykey if they're just going to go TOTALLY STRAIGHT, AFFAIR WITH ZAK, HURR all over the place?
6. I have still not forgiven Callum Keith Rennie for what he did to Due South.
7. Will I be disappointed with how they flesh out the religion in future episodes?
8. I want to punch Adama Sr. I'm not clear on why. Is this normal?

As I plough through the first season, is there anything people care to rec to me?

Yeah, from some angles I'm like "Yes, Apollo hotness!" and from some angles I'm like "Don't pluck your eyebrows anymore, dude." But he's one of the few male cast members who fucking shaves, he has pretty eyes, and the angst thing. Case closed, he's pretty.

I'd let you borrow them if I were still in Orleans, but the mail is such a bitch that I'm not inclined to bother. :(

Personally, though Type Six (or whatever name is) strikes me as the "Apollo hotness" for men...though I find her rather boring. It's all about Boomer, SHE is hot. That opening scene where they say "Some are programmed to think they're human"...that gets me every times.
