Reminiscing

My mother just called me at work to tell me that she'd watched Battlestar Gallactica. She thought that Starbuck being a girl was pretty cool.
She made me giggle though, reminding me of how much I loved it as a little girl, and how much my father hated it:) But I had one of the fighters, and I had the record, so he must have indulged me. She even remembered that he called it Battlestar Godawfulaca, which cracked me up, because she tended to tune out a lot of my four year old's battles with my dads. We had similar battles over the Dukes of Hazzard. My mother didn't remember that I had the record, though. I'm imagining she tuned it out. I liked to listen to my records ad naseum. It's a wonder she ever watched Star Wars with me because I killed that record.
Mostly, from BG, I remember the cylons, and wasn't there a kid with a robot dog? I loved Starbuck. That seems to be universal.
I didn't get a chance to see the miniseries. But this is Scifi. Odds are, they'll show it again.

I enjoyed it, would probably check it out if they do turn it into a series again (but then, I don't remember anything from the original). Actually, one of the neatest things about it was the music...or the lack thereof. Except for one or two points that I can remember, the only "music" was percussion and that was used sparingly. Like I said, neat.
