Actually, I think I missed the previews -- I went to get something to snack on before "Doctor Who" came on.

Let's just say that we are going to see some heavy parallels to what the French resistance did to French collaborators after the Allies freed France. I think it will make for an interesting story arc in and of itself.

That's part of the appeal of Galactica - We've had these several episodes that heavily mirror Nazi Germany occupying France, with organized resistance cells, etc., and this is something that non-sci-fi fans can really understand. A lot of the themes are either based on well-known historical examples or done in such a way that you begin to forget that this is a sci-fi show.
