yay! i was beginning to think i was the only one here!
yelp - i know what you mean! i have a friend who refuses to watch anything with space ships or aliens... she loves LOST, so i know she would love BSG because it's really more of a character drama than a sci-fi story, and it's so well written.
still, she refuses to watch it...
you should both finish watching it! it got really good in the last seasons. i'm still sad that it's over, but i'm looking forward to the new show, Caprica. i think it's supposed to start in january.
