ANY THOUGHTS ON THE UPCOMING EPISODE OF BSG ???


Starbuck looked hot in the flashbacks, I'll say that. Other than that, couldn't really tell. It'll be nice if someone can knock her down a peg, though.

One thing about the show that annoys me, and it's a problem in the overall sci-fi community: They make people with 1 military speciality into the greatest warriors in the universe. Starbuck is not only the best pilot in the fleet, but she's also a brilliant infantry type tactician and a master of hand-to-hand combat even to the point where she's better that the people who do that kind of work constantly. That's NOT how it works. Kind of like that show JAG (not sci-fi). The guy was a lawyer, pilot, combat expert, seamstress, professional chef, etc.
