FRACK!

What he said :o

Understatement of the century :D

:o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

Good God Rob, you watched that fast :o :lol: :lol:

What they all said ;) :lol: :lol:

I did think I'd summed up the situation rather well :lol: :lol: :lol:

i think you did sum it up really well! :)

the only time in the last few years that i have been gripped to a show as much as i have been to battlestar galactica was during the run of buffy season 5, and that now in comparison wasnt as good (but that could be because battlestar is more recent in my memory?)

bring on season 2! and get that damned president out of jail, she rocks :)-

Ditto :lol:

Those last five minutes are almost poetic. What an ending! So many unanswered questions :thumbsup:

Best bits: the fight between Starbuck and Number 6; the Galactica forces storming Colonial 1; Baltar and Number 6 on Kobol; multiple Boomers ( :wub: ); Lee turning the tables on Tigh; that ending :o

Worst bits: it ended :( :lol:

No idea why I didn't comment on this first time around :unsure: :rolleyes:

You were obviously stunned into silence Steve :lol:

You'll no doubt be glad to know that season 2's not let up the quality at all :thumbsup:

You could be right :ponder:

It'd be a first, though :lmao:

I've got to admit that, after watching the mini and the first season over the last four days (quite a feat for me - you know what a lightweight I am :lol: ), the series has soared in my estimation. You were right all along :thumbsup:

Superb, can't wait :thumbsup:

I had really low expectations of the series I have to admit. After the hokey original version and after seeing some of the production photos and reports about the new series it sounded awful. Just goes to show how wrong you can be sometimes :rolleyes:

I think people interested in space-borne sci-fi last year took one look at Enterprise, one look at Galactica and that pretty much sealed Enterprise's fate. Galactica's sci-fi for the people with taste and who want something other than a rehashed plot played out by cardboard characters. :thumbsup:

Your first disc got away this morning Steve. Enjoy :thumbsup:

Top man, thanks James :thumbsup:

I think everyone thought my comment was a good roundup and left it at that ;) :lol: :lol: :lol:

Could be that :lol:

I've started going around saying Frack instead of Frell, which is a bit worrying :ermm:

Actually, thinking about it, both of those are a bit worrying :rolleyes: :lol:

Nah. I say 'Frell' all the time :D

:blink: Actually, that didn't really help did it :lol:

Er... no :lol:

Did they say "frack" in the original series? I can't remember. But I'll be able to find out in a couple of days :rolleyes: :lol:

As far as I remember, they didn't say it in the original series.

Dirk Benedict did have a made up word he said though. Of course, I can't remember what it is :rolleyes:

Felgercarb or something to that effect was one of them :)

Yes, as in

whatever the hell that means :lol:

Weird, I was sure I'd heard it somewhere before :unsure: :rolleyes:

You sure you're not thinking of 'frag' from B5 ? ;)

Could be :unsure:

For some reason I had visions of Dirk Benedict saying it :rolleyes:

My memory isn't what it used to be when I was young :lol:

Now you've said that, you've got me wondering as well :lol:

Oh hell, this means I'm going to have to watch the original when the dvds turn up :lmao:

Might finally give me an excuse to watch them as well, after having them for 12 months already :lol:

Did someone say "rewatch"? :fear: :lol:

Rewatch would entail me having watched them once since I've gotten them :lol:

:lol: You're right, wouldn't want to have to do that. At least Boxy's hardly been in the new series, and there ain't a Daggit in sight :lol:

A wise decision to be sure. Hardly fits in with the tone of the series does it, having a huge camp robotic dog wandering around :lol:

That's Number 6 isn't it? :unsure: :lol:

Me-ow!! :lol: :lol:

Hmm, could be, although I'd substitute the word 'dog' for 'slapper' methinks.....:lol:

I can scupper your excuse, James :lol:

And the answer is...


YES! They do say "frack" in the original series! :lol:

I watched The Lost Planet of the Gods last night and both Starbuck and Apollo utter the word (Starbuck has to say it twice, of course).

So those visions I had, as unsettling as they were, of Dirk Benedict saying it were true :lol:

A bit of a late and generally lazy review as I can't be bothered to comment on all the eps.

Bl**dy marvellous and I can't wait to watch the second series.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

This was the only episode on the last disk of the set -- along with special features. It was worth the rental.

A lot of very exciting threads with Starbuck's being the least exciting for me. She walks right up to the arrow?! She decides to scuffle with a Cylon?!! If I weren't waiting for her first sight of Sharon, it would have been real boring.

I liked the the confrontation with the President up to the point that the President inexplicably gives up. (BTW, this is a rare difference between the American system of government and BSG's -- in the US, Adama would be committing mutiny just as Tigh accused Apollo when Apollo turned his gun on Tigh).

Loved Boomer's mission to blow up the Cylon ship and the discovery within. Did anyone else think of ALIEN at the sight of the ship's interior?

The Raptor crash survivors lucked into some nice Canadian scenery.

And -- what an ending!! I didn't expect it.

I was surprised to see in the Special Features on this DVD that in a scene from the original BSG, Dirk Benedict does utter "Frack!".

:)
