I didn't like BSG for a multitude of reasons tonight.
Deux ex Machina. It was like all of the characters were puppets of a writer who didn't really empathize with any of the characters, and while the actors played the roles well, none of them really felt like themselves. They moved so the plot could go forward, but the drama all felt contrived.

I am not enthralled with the current run. I am more than not enthralled, I am losing patience. Already, I am making more and more use of the fast forward button on my remote to skip past entire chunks of the show.

Warren Ellis has had this to say about BSG:

"I’ll watch BATTLESTAR GALACTICA again once I get a written guarantee that Baltar will stop fucking crying.

2006: Year Of The Fucking Crying.

2007: Stop Fucking Crying."

Or as I put it recently in a voicemail to one of my friends - "Too much QQ and not enough pew-pew."
