Wish they would kill off Dualla. She irritates me.

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.

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.
