[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] I liked my summary. Boo to all these words! Presumably the Cylons are interested in Kara (Ought we even call her Starbuck anymore? Looks to me like she hasn't had a callsign in awhile.) for reasons related to what they took from her. Roslin ordered the Brothers Cavell executed as soon as they finished delivering their message. Last week I was thinking that the only thing that would be as creepy and abusive as the chief beating up Cally was the chief sleeping with Cally. Because, you know, there is a seriously uneven power dynamic there. Or I guess was. Still, I don't know, it is a little weird, and I am fond of close relationships in fiction that aren't romantic, because the romance angle is so common. Here is the thing: this is awesome because it is like a whole new show now, but it is not awesome because I really liked the old one. I suppose this is the problem of the serial story, though. If you find yourself really liking a certain setting, a certain character dynamic, you may not want it to change, even if part of why you like it is how it grows and changes over time. See certain reactions to Buffy season four, or That One Alias Episode. (Or That Other One.) Also, re Adama's shifting attitudes about how to deal with the government: to me this played very much like Adama had learned a lesson. [/QB][/QUOTE]
