Anyone else catch this?
I'm a HUUUUUUUUUUGE fan of science fiction but the majority of TV sci-fi is comparable to its equal in horse shit.
However... this show is EXACTLY what I've been wanting in a sci-fi tv show. Yes, I absolutely LOVE lasers. I LOVE energy beams and deflector shields and what-have-you.
But this is this closest we've ever come to straight-up hard military sci-fi I've ever seen. No goofy Star Trek technobabble. No retarded aliens. Just humanity, on the brink of survival, fighting as best they can...
I know a lot of people decry the obvious changes (like making Starbuck a hot chick, Boomer an equally-hot Asian chick, Apollo some pussy-fied wanker, whatever) but that's all you can say that's bad about this show.
As a remake of the original... OK. I'll give you that. It's not quite the same. But to be honest, the original series SUCKED something hardcore, and this new series is really, to be quite honest, original. Especially when compared to the rest of television's sci-fi CRAPfest (namely SG-1).
Thoughts?

You are here at Pacific Tech to work, not to play doctor.
I took a big chance recommending a fifteen year old.
Now I can see I've made a mistake.

Gotdammit, Jaburg. The better part of me says to ignore you. The other part says SHUT THE HELL UP.
I'm seriously trying to get some opinions here. Go mumble somewhere else.

P.S. Quoting a movie that came on Comedy Central today does not make you cool.

Jaburgs gone fuckin' insane. He no longer appears to care about making any sense. He's just being an annoying prick.
There's a reason for the "off-topic/offensive posts" forum.
Last I checked this was the forum for media. Not retarded meaningless posts for the sake of being retarded and meaningless.

One: I don't like it when people try to buy my time with sex appeal. I don't watch sci-fi (mainly) for that. That's how I was shyed away from buying DOA 3
Two: It's fucking BOOOOOOOOOOO-RIIIIIIINNG!!

Where the FUCK are the moderators?!
Come on, Jaburg, ya fuckin' fourth grader, this is a topic I'm trying to get opinions on.
Go waste space with pics of sheep somewhere else.
WTF? I feel like I'm in middle school again.
Jeez, what a dork.

What a fucking moron.
Go ahead, Jaburg, ruin my post. It's not like I honestly wanted opinions on something I actually find interesting.
Fucking immature wanker.
IGNORE FUNCTION ON.
