Slightly Less Than Keen Eyes

cofax7 posted a link to a New Yorker article about science fiction (oh, pardon, speculative fiction) television, and particularly Battlestar Galactica.

And I run smack into the problem of the genre fan upon reading this, the umpteenth article that declares a love for BSG and a disdain for other scifi, by whatever moniker.

( Consider this a rant. Don't assume it's all that coherent )

However, as this is a rant, and not a rallying cry, if there are people out there on my flist who don't care much for genre and yet love BSG, tell me why. Tell me what keeps you interested and invested, and more importantly, tell me what it is about science fiction that seems otherwise offputting to you.

Payback the Second

This is for deani_bean, maker of my other lovely icon. She wanted Stargate, and jello. This is season 9 and it's utter silliness and owes a substantial debt to fbf for the visual inspiration.
