1) On a scale of 1 to 10 ("1" = tremendously disappointed, and "10" = best TV I've ever seen), how would you rate season three so far? How would you rate the individual episodes?
Occupation/Precipice: 8
Exodus Pt. 1: 8
Exodus Pt. 2: 10
The season thus far gets an 9.5.
2) Which three actors/characters have really stood out so far in season three and impressed you the most?
Saul Tigh, Tirol, Starbuck
3) Are there any characters that you used to dislike and now are starting to like in season three?
Ellen and Tigh. Especially Tigh, I didn't really like his character at all, but he's been outstanding this season!
4) A lot of characters went through physical changes at the end of season two/beginning of season three (Lee's poundage, Adama's 'stache, Tyrol's beard, Kara's long hair, etc.).. Which physical change was your favorite, and which one was your least favorite?
Fave: None really
Least Fave: Starbuck's long hair! So *hated* it. So *not* Starbuck. Cannot *wait* until she cuts it!
5) In your opinion, what was the single most depressing or tragic moment in season three so far?
Ellen/Tigh--Ellen's death.
6) What was the most amazing and/or heroic moment so far?
Galactica jumping in and out of the atmosphere--so amazing! And the Pegasus' last stand--As soon as I saw Pegasus I realized this was probably how they were going to get rid of Pegasus.
7) What was the most surprising and/or unexpected thing that's happened so far in season three?
Maya's death. I guess I should have seen it coming, giving all the warning's Roslin gave about how the baby and the mother must be protected.
8) Name one scene or moment in the New Caprica storyline that you wish the writers or director would've done differently. How do you wish they would've done it differently?
Not much. Maybe how quickly Starbuck accepted Kacey (Casey?) as her child. Didn't seem much like Starbuck. But I guess Leoben had been messing with her mind for months. Based on all the comments about Hera being the first Cylon/Human child, I knew that Kacey could not be Cylon/Human--she was too old. Plus it was too obviously a way that Leoben could frak with Starbuck's mind.
9) Now that we're several episodes into season three, how have your views of the cylons changed - if at all - since the end of season two? Do you like them more, hate them more, feel like you understand them more... ?
I'm more intrigued by the skin-job cylons. I want to know more about how they developed over the years when the Cylons disappeared I want to understand their culture and religion more. I think it's interesting that the Cylons are monothesist and the humans from the 11 colonies are polythesist. I'm interested in the culture/backstory of the 11 colonies as well. I would be interesting to finally see how the surviving humans will react to and integrate with Earth humans (assuming it's *our* Earth and assuming they find it)--since Earth's humans are mostly monothesist.
10) Now that everyone's back onboard the Galactica, there's sure to be some romance brewin'.. Which two characters are you really hoping to see hook up in season three?
Roslin/Zarek/Adama would be interesting. I would love to see more intense interaction between Lee/Starbuck--but nothing permanent--those two couldn't live together.
