I always like to tell my BSG story.
Best TV ever made.
You have a great flat mate there too
The overall story really flailed around as the later seasons went on (IIRC during a writers' strike is when there was a lot of issues), but '33'- the first episode of the first season is so fantastic I still remember it distinctly.
The style, tone, and acting of BSG really kept the show intriguing even if the plot went in circles sometimes.
There was a writer's strike in the middle of the final season which seems to have sent the show off the rails.
I'm a little sad that the first re-exposure was pretty much the pinnacle badass moment of the series. It's a great show, but that might have still set the expectations a bit high.
That scene was the singular best piece of television in history.
May be with the Galactica jumping into and ramming the Cylon colony later on a close second.
I can weather the weaker parts of a story for the stong parts to shine beside. It's all good.
Then you discover the board game and it's a whole new level of great
Board game you say?
one of my absolute favs. it's a co-op where one player is randomly, secretly a cylon, sabotaging the groups efforts.
you can toss people in the brig. theyll protest "Im not the cylon!!!" and if youre wrong (youre often wrong), the group suffers by losing the jailed character's special ability, while trying to fight off an attack until managing to jump.
best part? half way through, you draw new loyalty cards. sleeper cylon activated!!!
its genuinely hard not to run out of food, or water, or just get overrun by a boarding party. some of the best fun losing Ive ever had
Truly it's a hard game even if there were no cylons. Humans rarely win in my games. Alas, it's out of print π. Its spiritual successor Unfathomable seems good as well, though I've only played it once
I'm getting my men.
