I... I don't know. I think it's because they were setting up the rules of the world and putting all the pieces in place that would make sense later (and at that point there weren't people declaring it the Best Show On Television EVAR), so I suppose I got impatient.
What I'm enjoying about the show - the show's take on religion and spirituality and the way they don't write to the lowest common denominator - wasn't immediately apparent to me in those early eps. And they kept making Apollo into an action hero, where he's much better off being angsty, pretty and reluctantly heroic. (*pats Apollo*... *runs off to watch more Horatio Hornblower*)
But all that is past and I'm cheerfully plowing through episodes and enjoying the military drama political soap opera with killer robots IN SPAAAACE.
Tonight, however, I need to get properly caught up on Doctor Who. See, every companion in the new series I liked better than the last one, so now Rose is my 3rd favourite...
