I absolutely love this show. The plot is thick and complex. It is clean without perversion and very exciting. And the blond girl playing Starbuck is extremely hot. I know this is somewhat a vanity but not really. Are there any other post addressing this new Galactica series?

I'm with you. I'm too young to have seen the original, but I knew it by reputation. I wasn't expecting much from this show.
But it's good. The best sci-fi show in years. Better, in my view, than Babylon 5 in its prime.

Have you checked out the amazon.com reviews of the dvd? Very interesting, as is the soundtrack. On Usenet, check out alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.soundtracks

Yes several months ago when it was decided that it was a perversion of the original series and without the face man and papa cartwright, wasn't worth watching.

Do you have a link. I feel the same about this series as Knight Rider, A-Team and the Last American Hero when I was a kid.

The chick playing Starbuck is hotter because she isn't as out of reach in the looks department. Sort of like Mary Anne from Gilligan's Island.

There was a thread about two months ago just after the series started. There seemed to be a number of fans of the new series.
I no longer have cable TV, so I have to wait till the first season comes out on DVD. However, I enjoyed the four hour miniseries from a year and a half ago, the "pilot" from which they modeled the new series.
Jamie Bamber (Apollo) also played Horatio Hornblower's sidekick Archie on A&E's original miniseries, Horatio Hornblower, Season I (eight hours) and II (four hours).

Nuh-uh! The blonde demoness in Balthazar's psyche is SO much hotter. ;)
Boomer's a babe too.

I don't consider any woman "out of reach" unless she's married.

Yeah, she's cute, but not my style. I like 'em feminine and lithe.

Starbuck flies her Viper like I do. I laughed when she made the same facial grimaces as I when I'm playing my space combat simulations.

I loved the pilot, then I discovered the series on Usenet newsgroups (alt.binaries.multimedia) from the SkyOne broadcast of the series (it was later shown on SciFi channel.) I keep pulling out the divx DVDs I recorded and play it on my player and eagerly await the next season.
