Today was my first time viewing Battlestar Galactica. As of right now, I’m not as extremely interested for it like I was with Firefly. I’m not saying that I’m not giving it a chance either. It was just really hard to completely concentrate on it in class today. It probably didn’t help that I was in a classroom setting with three rows of computers in front of me and the noises of typing and clicking that came along. Did Cyclon 6 kill that baby though? What kind of mom would take her eyes off her baby in a crowded place? Why didn’t anyone see this cyclon lady do this? How come no one stopped her? I’m sorry. I don’t mean to pick that scene apart, but these are the types of questions I end up coming up with when watching movies and shows that want to portray reality. BSG wasn’t bad though. It had some interesting parts. I wish there was a more comedic feel to it, but I guess viewers wouldn’t take it as seriously. I'm just a comedy type of girl! So I didn’t know that Gaius Balter guy was a scientist. I can’t believe I didn’t catch that when we were watching it in class. I pretty much didn’t understand what Number 6 was using him for. Obviously she used him to get into the computer networks, but I never caught on that he was a famous scientist. I had to Wikipedia that. I’m guess I’m slow when it comes to watching or reading things that aren’t straightforward.

But, what if there were actual robots that had human features? Wouldn’t that be ridiculous? I hope they show the other human robots! And I hope there is more action because I’m not a big fan of just watching space ships fly around shooting other space ships.
