Yes, I've been watching Battlestar Galactica, why do you ask?
...Yes, I've watched the miniseries and then the entire first season this weekend.
It's just-- *waves hands around* It's so good. Gritty, painful, realistic, with continuity that I only wish could happen on SGA. Someone breaks their leg, you see them in traction and on crutches, fighting a possible pain killer addiction. Someone fucks up, people die. The political mire is so realistic it makes me sigh and nod in agreement and mourn the stupidity of humanity.
And of course, now I want to write a SGA AU where the Ori take over Earth, and so all that's left is Atlantis and maybe the Daedalus that had been just about to leave the Milky Way when it all went down. Where the Lanteans have to actually reach out to the denizens of the Pegasus Galaxy and survive. Settle down, start families, build a new government because they're the last damn humans free from the Ori and they have to keep going.
*facepalms, goes to watch BSG 2x01 because that was a killer cliffhanger*
