Much better than average space drama, but....

...would hate to be battling for the continued existence of the species alongside these characters, as there's really not a likeable one amongst them. This distanced me from a deeper involvement in the proceedings and it made it much harder than it should've been to keep my interest going. Honestly, after the first dozen episodes I didn't care if any of them survived, there was so much duplicity, underhand politicking and general scummy behaviour, with no one character, it seemed, behaving with any kind moral courage for more than an episode. Maybe this'll change as the story unfolds, we'll see. But that's my only complaint (albeit a fairly big one), I do think this boxset is fantastic value, providing many hours of great quality & intelligent space drama....ignore the views from those that say series 4 is cut in half, if you're someone coming to BSG for the first time, like me, then this has no bearing on the solid overall value of this package. Buy n enjoy...
