Both are very smart, dynamic shows, and I'd highly recommend giving them a look. (All seasons up to the 2004/2005 season for both shows are available on DVD).

I thought the whole bit where Adama and the Admiral were going to have the other assassinated was ludicrous. How am I supposed to care about somebody who will consider murder as a reasonable solution to political disagreement? Worse, it made no sense to me (or wasn't well enough set up) that the Admiral would have become that evil. I know her XO confided in the Galactica's XO about some bad things done, but offscreen evil is never potent enough to convince a viewer. And since the death of the other ship's crewman was so clearly an accident, I found it odd that an entire shipload of reasonable people would have permitted the Galactica's crewmen to be sentenced to death; hard time, sure, but not death. And the two ships from the same side sending their fighting ships against each other was therefore, stupid. That's how I saw it. Eliz didn't.
