BSG has something for everybody, great scripts, proper Sci Fi plotting and contemporary political references, the number 6s for the dads and of course Apollo and Anders for the girls.
Dramatic tension with the whole who is really a cyclon thing – comments about religion. OK nobody plots to off their mother but you can't have everything.
But as said, the best thing, great big frack off spaceships.
Seriously, watch it, would loan it you but somebody has just borrowed the pilot and series one off me.
