more battlestar galatica ranting

Starbuck is a girl?!?!?!?!!?!?

I don't think I'm okay with this.
I know I should be.
But I'm not.

On the other hand, at least they've finally cleared up that pesky "was Baltar getting it on with the Cylons?" issue. Of course, we now have a Cylon played by a Victoria's Secret model....

It is just wrong. Terribly wrong.

Though, if Starbuck became a womanizing lesbian I might be willing to give it a chance. Maybe. But, no.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

Aparently not. Although she apparently does smoke cigars and punch people.

I could smack the people on the helm of the project for this. "The relationship between Starbuck and Apollo was always the emotional core of the show, so we thought if we made Starbuck a woman and preserved that friendship, it would really be much more complex."

No, actually it wouldn't.

Ok , I agree. I would watch it if that angle was introduced. Otherwise, I'm going back to my DVD collection.

Right. Had nothing to do with demographics and money making I'm sure.
