Discuss BSG!
(I'm starting a few threads of my favorite shows. I watch a lot of TV series...)

Sorry, I never got into the new BSG. A female Starbuck, wtf? Uh, no. Give me the original series anyday!

Female Starbuck was the best part of that show!
I tried watching the original, but I guess it's just too much before my time. The sets and acting drove me crazy.

Well I grew up with BSG and Buck Rogers so I'm sure nostalgia was a lot to do with it.
It was because of that show that Lorne Greene stands as my favorite male actor, followed only by Jack Nicholson. He did an awesome portrayal of Adama. I didn't get that feeling with Olmos, his leadership and caring didn't shine through.
And yes, coming from the era of Land of the Lost, the humanoid'esque cylons was just too modern for me. I tried watching Captica (or however it was spelled, can't recall), it was alright but I guess a bit TOO prior to the cylon takeover to make it interesting. Shame too, I think it was a great idea for a show.

Yeah, I didn't get into Caprica, either. I watched a few episodes and then forgot about it.
