The two have very little in common. This happens to be a story and character oriented show, and they're not afraid to do some rather shocking things. The also don't shy away from tough topics, as you may have noticed from this discussion. And of course, 2 of the main characters, Starbuck and Boomer are now extremely hot babes! And they've both opened cans of "whoop-ass" on more than one occassion!

I realize the bSG is different but the plot line then and now still doesn't hold my interest. I've read the blurbs but it's just not interesting to me.
