Re: 18 OP

Hmmm... Well that's a taste thing. Just because you don't identify with them doesn't mean that other people don't. Where you see them standing around being heroic, I see them wrestling with extremely difficult moral and personal issues -- and I happen to enjoy that. It's rare to see a show that really delves into bigger issues in an unflinching way, and presents them without dumbing them down or making the solution obvious.

Actually, it just sounds like you just don't like straight drama -- if ambiguity and layering of issues doesn't appeal to you, then the whole genre falls pretty flat. Probably want to steer clear from things like the crime drama genre.

Just because I like a little light in my dark does not mean I don't like ambiguity or layer of issues. I was remarking on a flaw I find with the characterizations NOT the whole show. In fact I adore shows like the Law and Order series, I just want something different from Sci-fi, well, at least long running sci-fi.

Re: 18 OP

Okay. Well, I'm not sure what you are complaining about. First is was that there wasn't humor, then you say, no that isn't it. Then you say you don't sympathize with the characters and neither does your friend in Iraq because it's grim. Now you say you are okay with grim, but just not in Science Fiction. Well, okay in science fiction but not in long running science fiction. To that all I can say is, cool for you, but why do you expect others to feel the same way?

Honestly, all I can say is that you aren't required to love everything -- but what you see as flaws, I see as a style choice, and I really don't think BSG would be improved if it was funny. I think it's one of the best science fiction series that has ever come out for pretty much the reasons you dislike it.

Re: 18 OP

I'm not complaining. (For the record the Law and Order franchise isn't at all about the main characters, BSG is) And I didn't mean "grim" I meant unrealistic characterizations.

My *original* point was that it's not the best and it's overrated. The reasons I don't watch it anymore are irrelevant.

Re: 18 OP

[velvet-mace.livejournal.com]

Well. I respectfully disagree. I think it deserves the hype. The only better science fiction show out there was Babylon-5. BSG isn't quite at that level of perfection, but then that level is damn hard to reach.
