Well, after all the rave reviews about BSG, I decided to watch it. I caught last week's episode (1x05) and this week's (1x06). And it was okay, but I'm not sold out on it like other people.

One of the things that I really don't like is the way none of the camera men can seem to hold the camera steady. It's always shaking and randomly zooming in and zooming out. I'm sure this is a deliberate effect, but its purpose and allure are lost on me.

Also, they seem to pace their episodes like Law and Order does with a cut from one scene to another without time to process, which I also don't particularly care for, but can get past a little easier.

But 1x06 was interesting. Guess I'll try to catch 1x07.
