I have still to convince some friends that the new Battlestar Galactica is worth watching. Their objections tend to fall into two camps. 1) I just don't like science-fiction. 2) I am unwilling to accept that Starbuck is now a woman.
I don't recall ever seeing a dilithium crystal rod or latex-headed alien on Battlestar Galactica so to objectors on sci-fi grounds I argue that BG is sci-fi in the same way as The Wire is a cop show - in actual fact they are both political/social dramas.
It's the nostalgic Dirk Benedict fans who are harder to convince. Until now:
