I have just finished the first 90 minutes of the new show, here are some of my thoughts:
- They should have kept Starbuck male, but she plays the part well so far
- It seems wrong on several levels that the pilot trades his seat for the "brilliant mind" scumbag that sold out the human race. Exactly how I would have written the story.
- Good suspensful ending, they have me wondering what happened to the President's and Apollo's ship with plenty of incentive to watch the next part to find out. I am guessing the ship jumped to warp/light speed as both characters are too valuable to kill in the pilot.
- I love the knobs, corded phones, etc. Reminds of the look in ST: TOS, which I still prefer over the newer series in that apsect.
- wonderful visuals and audio, especially showing the raptors flying silently through the vacuum of space. As "neat" as hearing the "swoosh" of ships traveling in space is, it is completely unrealistic and not always necessary but of course it is better in the dogfights though.
- How does a robot have "faith"? Or is that just some BS to appear more human?
enough for now, it looks promising and should prove interesting unless it drifts too far down some odd or silly path.
