These are the first episodes I've seen since the original in the 70's. Very well done.

However, the theme definitely reminds one of the situation in Iraq, with the show supporting the equivalent of the Iraqi insurgents, complete with their strap-on bombs blowing up the local police academy.

I think Edward James Olmos is a great actor, but I also know he is quite the liberal. Unfortunately, I'm thinking this show is an apologist for underground Iraqi tactics versus the American troops.

That bothers me.

It's being turned into an anti Iraq war, anti war on terror propaganda piece.

I'm disappointed.

My thoughts exactly. I was maybe 5 seconds from just turning it off.

Thrace suddenly accepting the kid and cylon dude seems way contrived.
