Every time I watch this show, I find my self laughing all the time, and feeling bad for one or several of the characters half of the time. There's so many embarasing sex related humourous scenes. The cast and the characters are amazing.

I think there were made a similar sitcom in USA, but in my opinion it was not even half as good as the British one. I'm no fan of "The Office", but I think that show also was a whole lot better Brittish style. In other words: This series might not get the highest ratings in the US, but to me (European) it's one of the best comedy shows out there.

This episode was one of the better ones in my opinion. After many "slow" episodes after the Pegasus triology, this was moving a little faster. Did I say a little? I meant too fast. All of the sudden, during 2 episodes, Baltar has gotten himself elected, they found some planet that's liveable and even almost settled down there, Kara has gotten long hair and Lee is (...what word to use here?..) dating the girl with the headset. And: The Cylons have made it clear that now they're in charge of everything.

It's a great cliffhanger. I hope that the next season will show us to a certain degree what happend. I can't wait to see how this will go on. I'm holding my breath until October for the next episode of the greatest show on TV ever.

Monty Python's Flying Circus
Avg Score: 8.31    Total Ratings: 1594    Total Reviews: 54
Monthy Python's Flying Circus was airing long before I could even be aware of it's existence. Yet, their humor is timeless. Moments like *No one expects the Spanish Iquisition* and the John Cleese's silly walks, makes for many laughing out loud moments. Though the series is very good, I like their movies even more.

The humor presented is of the very dry british kind. Their jokes are some times political, religious or outrageous, other times it's just plain silly. I can imagine them being quite controversial back then when they first aired this stuff. It's a shame it didn't last longer, but all good things must come to an end, right?

I love this series. It makes me think, and it satisfy my craving for pretty and poetical stuff on TV. It even makes me over look all of the annoying camera paning/ tilting/ shaking/ zooming.

This episode however, it had it's highlights, but it was far from great. In my opinion what made this episode worth watching was the sequence where young Adama actually shot the big bad. Normaly one would expect the 'hero' to be forced to shoot. Apollo just took care of the problem.

On the other hand, the repeated scenes with an suposedly earlyer girlfriend gave me nothing, I was quite annoyed by the repeat of them. I didn't like the whole hooker element either. It all seemed thrown together, and it made me think of Andromeda when it went from decent to bad.

We did learn something about the economics of the fleet. I was a little surprised to see that the need for food and other necessities was that bad. There's not been any focusing on that previousely.

The relation between Baltar and the President was barely touched. There was nothing about the stray nuke and the cylon movement. I was waiting for those stories to be developed some more, so I'm a little disapointed about that.

I like the new dark Apollo at the moment. I'm sure he'll not stay that way forever, but for now I like that developement.

That's what she is: A blond capable actor. I've only seen her in Battlestar Galactica, but from what I can tell, she deserves the spotlight. In this series she shows us a wide specter of emotions exellently acted. She is my favorite female actor of all times, and I don't think that her place is threatened any time soon.

Eternal vs. Karathress

Somewhat of a boring video due to the repetitiveness, but my favorite fight in SSC. Song is "On the Run" by Tillmann Uhrmacher.
