I saw the mini-series a while back, but haven't caught up with the series yet. Anyone want to swing it my way for a second article?

There were elements I liked in the mini-series, and aspects I loathed. But I thought it showed a healthy and interesting level of respect for the original series. I liked the fact that the creators looked at the original viper design and decided not to mess with it. It's a really distinct silhouettes that screams 'Battlestar'.
