Battlestar Galactica Rewatch: Mini series
You can thank @beatrice-otter for this. Her recent bsg fic had me reaching for my dvds when I realized how much I'd forgotten.
The mini series introduces the titular Battlestar Galactica, a 50-year-old ship under the command of Bill Adama, just as it is set to be decommissioned and turned into a museum. His estranged son Lee and Secretary of Education Laura Roslin are both in attendance. Then, everything changed when the fire nation, er, cylons attacked. Laura becomes president, assembled a fleet of civilians, and they set of with Galactica in search of earth and safety.
Initially airing in 2003, the show often gets described as post 9/11, but on rewatch it feels more cold war nightmare scenario to me. The visuals are mushroom clouds, not crashing jets. Laura's swearing evokes LBJ's and the scene with the little girl on the ship is basically a Barry Goldwater commercial. The only things that really scream 9/11 is the memorial wall and the planes halted in transit.
In my first watch, I remember being moved, but on rewatch I'm not feeling it. The problem is that it's so fast paced there are really only two quick moments with Dee in the hallway and Billy talking about his family where you get a hint of the weight of it. The show gives more to the ship board deaths. Over all, the show is so focused on the fight for survival that it never lets the characters or audience really sit with the grief.
Mini series does a good job introducing the various characters: Laura, Bill, Kara, Lee, Saul, Gaius, Boomer, Tyrol, and the rest of the gang. The fact they shoehorn Tyrol and his deck gang into everything that requires non-coms makes sense in terms of managing casting, it does get ridiculous.
The problems of Bill Adams's leadership which will haunt him throughout the show are on full display. He plays favorites in ways which undermines unit discipline and cohesion and ignores problems until the day comes he can't hide from the things he's done.
Laura's leadership strength of ruthless, clear-sighted pragmatism are also on display. Her flaw of riding roughshod over everyone is there too, but since everyone who fights her in this is clearly wrong, it's easy to miss.
From a Doylist perspective, having Leobin as the only one in the station makes sense as a way to introduce Adama to human-form cylons, but from a Watsonian perspective the fact the station is in-manned makes the Colonial Fleet seem dumb and incompetent.
This has been much debated, but I think Caprica killing the baby was an accident. She is fascinated and it's all an experiment. She doesn't care she killed him, but she didn't set out to do it.
Bill gives a great speech. So say we all!
