    The unimaginable happened. A spark of interest emerged in me for this new BSG series.

    The fires of hope are not ignited yet.

    This is sounding better. Even in the original “kiddie” series from the ’70s, I was always curious about the references to the First Cylon War. Its one of those things never fleshed out, even as comics or novels, and the whole premise of BSG hinged on it.

    My big fear is they are going to go too far in trying to explain everything like they did with Caprica and that stupid screwed up “origin” of the cylons. Other then that I want Vipers shooting Raiders and Battlestar fleet action and I’ll be happy.

    Also it was 73 degrees today matt, and I thought of you :p

    You’re not one of those people, like the Trekkies, who run around yelling “That’s not canon, that’s not canon”, are you? :dry: :S

    Oh hell no, I love Star Trek but you can’t hold people to what is “true” in a fake universe. It’s a TV show, enjoy it. I just don’t want to see them try to over-explain everything to the point it becomes ridiculous. Similar in fashion to what Star Trek Voyager did to the borg, a menacing scary race that ended up being beaten on a weekly basis by a small light cruiser class spaceship and turned into a joke. Sometimes scifi writers seem to feel the need to explain everything that occurs in a show and the reasoning behind it, rarely does it turn out to be anything but a disaster.

    Yes, it’s a joke. It’s all a joke. Mother forgive me. :silly:
