haiku review: battlestar galactica season 2

The boldest, best show,
A Sci-Fi Channel remake??
Media koan.

I have to editorialize for a moment and say that, in the wake of a season that asks huge questions about what it means to be human, how you draw moral lines around leadership and survival, whether machines have immortal souls, and where the limits of family and forgiveness lie, I think it's terrible that my biggest concerns as we head toward Season 3 (besides not knowing how I'll survive til October) are whether Adama will shave, Kara will cut her hair, and Lee will get buff again. Bad, superficial me.
