     Forget the BSG show. The comments section of any Mr. X post is always the most entertaining thing on the internet.

     Very good, never liked any shows of this sort before, happend to dload that ‘Razor’ mini film episode on the off chance and was hooked. Was cluesless to what was going on though - so i took the time to watch all episodes right from Season one before four began, very tense and well acted show, makes a change from most of the **** on TV.

     “but you know, for all the big talk about free speech and stuff”

     Insulting people or a group of people is NOT guaranteed by “free speech”! Peeps need to understand this. And especially Mr. X.

     While I think show has it’s flaws it is very enjoyable and entertaining. I do however see a decline what the writing is concerned. The season opener also did not impress me much as I wanted it to be. There are a lot of matters that just don’t add up. Also the drama was serious lacking in this episode.

     There are a lot of new potential BSG watchers, so I think its good I try and support the show by helping out some of you guys, as well as maybe filling in some of the more casual fans with a little BSG history lecture for you.

     Now, wikipedia will fill in much better than I will, but the long and the short of it that this BSG is considered as a “Rebirth” - there are parallels with the 70’s show thoughout, but it really is something “new” to it, and to test these idea’s out a 2 x 2hr “mini-series” special was shown here in the UK on Sky about a year before it started properly to gauge reaction, which was good enough to commission the first series to the US with the Mini-Series as the intro.

     As someone mentioned, and with *any* TV series (particularly sci-fi), the first season can be hard work at times as they find their feet with the set up of the characters and trying out what works and what didn’t - but it is worth sticking with to the end as the S1 finale was great!

     Season 2, however, is spot on the money, at the same time that ST:Enterprise was dying on its ass, BSG was kicking it in the face whilst it was already down. Where Enterprise was taking 4-6 weeks to cover off a story arc, BSG was telling the same amount of story in a single 45 minute episode, so when you start building 4-6 week arcs it is very intense.

     The pace of BSG is like nothing else out there, sure it has its share of bottle episodes not-so-relevent to the overall storyline, but it is relentlessly difficult to follow at times as the writers assume you are smart enough to figure out what has gone on beforehand (the exact opposite of Lost) and this is why it sits head and shoulders above everything else out there - it actually has respect for its viewers intelligence.

     Problem is, this makes it almost impossible to pick up halfway through, and yes, they faced renewal problems only made worse by the start of S3.

     The beginning of season 3 draws parallels with the US occupation of Iraq, and that was very very damaging for them. I am not going to debate this now, just pointing out a fact, but for those of us who can see beyond the storyline and understand what the writers were trying to do, it really is a superb piece of prose, and cleverly designed to fit in with the overall story.

     And without spoiling anything, that gets us to now, the start of S4

     The BSG writers were very concerned that they did not have quite enough material for a further two seasons, but had too much for one. So Sci-Fi commissioned them for a 26 week run + the Razor special (which as someone pointed out is a great way to get into the style of the show and sample the action to see if you like it) which is unheard of.

     So, 23 weeks + the 2 hour finale to come!
     11 of the 12 are revealed.

     If you are going to try this show, get into it now so can you be up with it for the end of the whole thing!

     This is the night time equivalent of “The Guiding Light” or “Days of our Lives”….it’s a friggin soap opera. But day time soaps are better. They’ve had a lot more practice at cheesy story arcs.
