Not checking out the ship doesn't bother me because there really was no time. (If they don't send someone up there right at the beginning of the second ep, I'll be a little bugged, but probably too distracted to really care.)

The Cylon hacking didn't bug me in and of itself, except that it was handled in the most blatantly handwavy TV sci-fi way possible. Which didn't so much bug as amuse because shiny graphics that tell the audience what's happening are funny to me.

Sam hasn't had time for a haircut? I suppose if you can't find time to brush...

Just about every single computer hacking on TV and movies is like that. The only exception I can think of is The Matrix Reloaded. They actually had a Unix command line! And Trinity used an actual (existing in the real world) program to scan for vulnerabilities.

Yes. The very fact that any computer system is connected to any other, regardless of whether the bad guy has any connection to anything on the connection, immediately gives them access to all those connected. It's one of those bad guy skills, like never having anybody notice they're doing the shifty thing.

I know, which is why it's so funny. Because with mere seconds! to! spare! or we'll! all! die! every computer programmer in the Galaxy seems to be able to find the time to code for helpfully color-coded graphics that say things like CYLON VIRUS DETECTED.

When would Starbuck have had time for a haircut? This episode started right where last episode ended.

Maybe she fell on some shears during the fight with Six.

Sumi, are you talking to me? Because I'm takling about Carter on SG-1.

Sam's hair is tragic.

Oh my goodness, the meta on SG-1 is just making me laugh and laugh and laugh.
