We’ve watched 7 episodes of the 13-episode first season of the 2004 “Battlestar Galactica” and I’m underwhelmed. It’s fine. Entertaining, but not living up to the fan enthusiasm.

I feel like B:G is a first draft of “Expanse.”

Does the series get better?

@MitchW It does, but that’s through my 2004 lens. Does it hold up today? I’m not sure.

@canion some things are very much of their time and sometimes that’s because other work has built on the original. Comedy in particular ages badly.

@canion The parallels to 9/11 only now occur to me. Been a long time.
