Kevin, can you put me on the ping list? Also, when does season 2.5 come out on DVD? Does anyone know if there will be an entire season two package in one DVD set, or will they remain split between 2.0 and 2.5?

I don't care where the arrow of Apollo lands, considering his recent weight gain and transition to whiny git. Give me back the jaded, dry wit Apollo with the fuzzy- unexpressed- feelings only for his Dad and Starbuck.

They are talking about the changes they've made in their five-year story arc, Callie shooting Boomer, etc. - correct me if I'm wrong, but some of the supporting characters weren't even supposed to live this far - Helo was going to last for an episode or two, among others.

Nah, she stays. Good bye Col Tighe, Chief, Dualla & Helo. Anyone beyond that (since Cylons are clones there's no killing them off) includes Adama, Roslyn, Starbuck, Apollo and they are the core of the story.
When Starbuck dies, so does my interest in the show.
To: KevinDavis
I've never given a show more of a chance to catch my interest than this one, and it just doesn't connect with me. The art direction was intriguing until I found out that the producers weren't trying to make a point by having everything look so much like Earth design, it was just cheaper that way. I don't like drama that is afraid to be grim, but this show is relentlessly monotonous. I am not asking for humor, I'm asking for texture. And I don't care how hot anyone says that Scorpius-in-Crichton's-head chick is, she looks like a female impersonator. The eps I've watched have been dull as dirt, so I gave up.
Having said all that, I'm glad the show exists because it may very well be a wedge into the childish SF shows we've seen so far, and give an opportunity for more adult-themed SF in the future. This show has proven that one can make a weekly series that doesn't end each episode with a little banter and chuckles from the cast, and a long-running storyline that actually strays from the initial concept. (Though I've been told season 2's ending and it seems like a real mistake to me. Also, the couple of hardcore fans I know have been really disappointed in the second half of season 2.)

The idiots at Sci-fi need to stop farting around with WRESTLING and other lame shows and put more Sci-fi like Galactica on their rotation.
Bringing back Firefly/Serenity as a series would be a great start.

I'd like to see the Tremors series re-energized. You and seven other fans. ;-)
Actually, I never did get into the series, but thought the first movie had at least some entertainment value.
