Thanks sis for introducing me to Battlestar Galactica

My sister and brother in law brought the first few episodes of Battlestar Galactica with them on our vacation to Florida. It was great. You can really see how the war on terror informs the way the show was written. Everyone faces hard and terrible decisions of who to save, and what rights to keep. I really enjoyed the show and am planning to watch the rest in the manner of most of my television drama obsessions, in rapid succession.

One thing I don't like about the show is that Tricia Helfer is supposed to be this super hot vixen, but she is TV pretty. Takes a bit away from the male responses.

P.S.
If my sister and brother in law felt like logging in and leaving a comment, they could choose a nickname with which I could refer to them. Pick something catchy and don't use your real name.

Ha! I just got my dad the first mini-series for Christmas because I have also gotten sucked into the DVDs on Netflix in the past few months, and thought he'd enjoy them.

My only sad warning is that it really jumps the shark and goes downhill in season three, but seasons 1 & 2 are great.
