Hello all, i got into BSG very late as i initially dismissed it as just another Scifi program, but recently had the time to experience it and wow.
I was absoloutley amazed at everything and when i got to the end, i simply started from the beginning again, its that good.
One thing that amazed me was that pretty much throughout the entire Series i was atcually rooting for the cylons.
Although many of them i disliked, several of them atcually made me root for them and towards the end when you see all the sixes and eights around BSG it made me really happy.
This mostly i think comes from the Number Six character, apart from being drop dead gorgous of course, Tricia Helfer is also an amazing actress the way she can go from being seductive and feline like to being worried scared and even wide eyed innocent is amazing and its all the little details like the way she sets her eyes, mouth etc.
And thats what made me root for that particular character was just the sheer amount of range that we see through out the program, the Gina Character was amazing and shocking at the same time as you could see the physical and emotional pain in her, likewise Head Six was more devilish and naughty.
Leoben Was another character i like greatly as i felt that along with the Six he posses insight and forgiveness that is remarkable.
Another character i loved was Gaius Baltur, through out the series i was begging him to tell Six that he loved her and to mean it.
But he was constantly persucuted but at the end of the day as Lampkin pointed out, he was trapped in a impossible situatuion and just turned on himself.
But then again there were character that lots of people seem to like i just didnt, Starbuck for example i thought she just seemed to come across as an arrogant teenager and then later on she just became this troubled brooding women who snapped at people and was generally horrible to them.
But maybe that was the idea......
Saul Tigh, this was mixed one as i felt that he was a jerk most of the time and then his treatment of the Caprica Six (which by the way just felt wrong to me) was dispicable, she miscarries and he seems to forget all about her.
Sharon Valerii, again another character that sometimes i liked and felt sorry for and other times just found it hard to relate to her, but there multiple versions and they are all different.
The D'Anna character was perfect in her role although i was wondering whether she really loved Gaius and Six or just used them?
Anyway thanks reading this.
