Probably the greatest sci-fi show this century. And it's definitely influenced this show a lot, especially the Ark stuff and the way it deals with leadership in a survival situation.Geoffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047145278279336626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-163433168019315772.post-68966638876174699972015-07-28T18:44:55.627-07:002015-07-28T18:44:55.627-07:00It really is THE WORST.

Sometimes I don't mind being moderately sick, as at least it gives you some peace and quiet - but this flu just made me feel terrible. <br /><br /><i>The other parallels are, of course, to the great Battlestar Galactica, both in general plot points and visuals, and in the fact that this world apparently has a population composed about 75% of BSG tertiary cast members.</i><br /><br />Ah, that's interesting as I haven't seen BSG. So if I end up watching it I'll see the other half of this show's main inspiration? I'll add it to the ever-growing TBW list.

It's absolutely the worst.<br /><br />I've really enjoyed your thoughts on this show, and I particularly enjoy when you point out parallels to LOST, which I've never seen but this show clearly has. (The other parallels are, of course, to the great Battlestar Galactica, both in general plot points and visuals, and in the fact that this world apparently has a population composed about 75% of BSG tertiary cast members.)<br /><br />Really looking forward to your thoughts on season 2 when you get there. It's a long, long wait to season 3!Geoffreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047145278279336626noreply@blogger.com
