yeah this doesn't hold up very well, i rewatched S1 and i just started fast forwarding a lot and I don't think I can keep going into season 2. There is just way, way too much Rosalyn, while Boomer is hot she is an absolute SHIT actress, Baltar having sex dreams with 6 is funny a few times but jesus christ its like every 10 mins he just spaces out for 5 mins and its not that interesting, Helo is a shit actor, Starbuck gets annoying fast, they zig zag all over the place on Cylons.
I'm honestly not sure why I remember the show being better than it really is, I guess maybe later in s2 & s3 there are some great episodes but holy shit there is a lot of garbage here. and its not recency bias or anything, we just finished rewatching Lost and I LOVED it, its even better on a binge watch than I remember it being at release. Black Sails and Rome were also fantastic on rewatch. TNG and Ds9 are amazing.
BSG just... really isn't that good, sadly. Now its kind of a bummer to hear the reboot is dead, but then again it would probably be even shittier full of tranny cylons.
