Allow me to be the first to post my thoughts on the first installment of BattleStar Galactica.

As a fan from it's short TV run, I saw every episode. Twice.
This one was not worth all the hype, but it wasn't bad. The writers added a LOT of drama, especially between Apollo and Adama. Some was nice, like the Cylon history and the peek at Caprica before the Cylon attack.

The special effects are first-rate. I like what they've done to the Vipers and shuttles and other ships so far. Much more realistic-ish. The Cylons are something of a disappointment IMO. I think I preferred the old chromed humanoid thingies.
We do not see much of them in pt 1. Maybe in pt 2 there will be more.

I will post a more complete review tomorrow or Wednesday after I've seen the whole thing.

Brian
