Dude, you don't want to go there. Trust me. Wait until you finish watching the show before trying to figure that one out.

Probably. Or an aneurysm. Whichever.

You'll either just shrug and accept it, or devolve into a foaming-at-the-mouth rabid anti-Ron Moore type person.

You're laughing now, but you'll see the truth in my words all too soon.

I'm waiting with baited breath to see his reaction to the S3 finale. :lol:

I thought S3 had a decent enough ending. Nowhere near as good as S1 or S2, but still fairly solid.

They found "the Eye of Jupiter". They boxed the Xena cylon and Adama is shooting Baltar up with drugs to interogate him.

What's so bad about that? It wasn't a great episode, but I didn't find it all that objectionable, unless I'm forgetting something.

Oh, and the next episode's an interesting one. :wink:

Well, for one you have a senior NCO under direct military jurisdiction in that capacity, rather that a civillian. If Adama gives the Chief an order that violates union regs, then what? He either follows the order and screws over the union, or refused the order and gets tossed in the brig again. Plus, as the deck chief of Galactica....where do his priorities lie? Was he voted in by the workers or just appointed by the President?

Alot of potential problems that nobody seemed to think about.
