Battlestar Galactica (Contains Episode Spoilers)
Stranger Dan:
The new Starbuck may be a girl but she has a bigger dick than the original.
Simulacra:
yeah, dirk benedict is kind of a pussy
Switchblade:
Starbuck Version 2.0 (AKA Kara Thrace) rocks on eighty-seven different levels and counting. The original was just this blonde eye-candy dude who shot stuff. The new version is a person.
My line with the new version of the show is that you really shouldn't go to it with any preconceptions. Forget EVERYTHING from the first version, and treat it as an entirely new show. Difficult, considering the name, perhaps, so why not just think of it as "Fluffy McRabbit fights the Bad Men" or something?
You'll quickly come to love it if you can just let it slide that it isn't the same show, and has never tried to be. Then, start looking for what ties it to the original. I'm told it's there.
trill:
I never watched the original, so I really don't know how the two compare. But the new one is quickly becoming one of my favorite shows. I watched the marathon on Sci-fi the week before the season premiere out of boredom, and decided to keep watching because I thought that Baltar's plot was kind of hillarious. Then the show went and surprised me by actually being good beyond that. These people have layers, real emotions, and their motivations make sense. It's not something that I see in most TV shows.
And if something like them making Starbuck a girl is your main problem with the show? Pretend it's a different show when you watch it. Because, you know, it *is* a different show.
KharBevNor:
But that is the essence of my problem!
Anyway, as I've said, I can't watch it, so I don't really know why I got sucked into this >_<.
