Default My Take

"A beautiful blonde wearing a halter top and covered in Vaseline runs by."

If that doesn't sum up the whole mini, I don't know what does.

"They've already filmed a hot sex scene and a cat-and-mouse chase aboard a space station, but today is something special"

Are they sure this isn't going to be a new Reality TV Show?

"Today is the "Scorsese shot.""

Ahh, kissing the XXX of he who will be bringin a new production to Sci Fi.

"They're costumed in uniforms or in futuristic civilian clothes"

Are the referring to the "futuristic" suits and ties?

"Star Katee Sackhoff — who is wearing the Vaseline and will be doing most of the running"

Again with the vaseline. Is this the plot of the mini?

"walks her tiny dog nearby. "His name's Meatball," she tells someone who asks."

Or is that the name of the mini.

"The Vaseline is simulated sweat. "

Third vaseline reference. It's starting to become an obsession.

"After four or five rehearsals, the Vaseline seems unnecessary."

Fourth Vaseline reference. Boy, they really want us to know that she's covered in Vaseline. Oooo Ahhhh

"I think that it's about time that we show that women can do just as much as the guys can, if not do it better,"

Uhhh, you mean like in T2, G.I. Jane, Tomb Raider, Alien, Aliens, etc.

"I think that having a female fighter pilot that's so significant to the story is changing the dynamic of the show."

You mean the dynamic that was present in character of Sheeba, in the original series?

"The hushed bubble breaks and we're sucked back to the real world."

Where everyone thinks this production is terrible? Welcome to reality.

"I started to get very excited and also terrified that it would fall apart before the finish line."

If Queen of the Damned is any indication, it fell apart before it left the Starting Line.

Really, this has to be a spoof or satire or something. Come on guys, give it up... LOL

Sick!

They don't even have the Gonads to just tell a story?

They have to ripp off a style that doesnt even belong in a sci fi production.......Yes it is indeed time to vomit.
And get what the director say's about how each shot should be "part of the story" or "tell's more of the story" and he's just learning this? what is he some excecutive's nephew, and he's allowed to direct?

Where the **** do they get these people?



Ohhhhhhhhh,.....Ahh I give up!

Even their articles make the mini series less interesting for me.

Default SHE'S NOT STARBUCK

You idiots from TPTB, uou can name the characters anything you want because you OWN the rights to the names. BUT these dysfunctional, one dimensional vaseline encrusted, paperboard standups will never BE the REAL CHARATERS that became actual PEOPLE to an entire generation of science fiction watchers!
The jogging bra is called Kara Thrace, NOT Starbuck for ME!
And I suspect not for a lot of other people!
