That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There needs to be a musical episode of BSG. Since they can't really blame magic for making everybody sing... maybe there can be a computer virus that infects all the Cylons and makes them sing.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Send in the clones, there ought to be clones...

Have we heard any music or popular culture on BSG, aside from knowing that they have news/talk shows similar to our own?

It was a perfectly good article chronicling a difficult process of interpersonal and corporate negotiation, and very interesting, with a few unnecessary and distracting opinions thrown in.
Do you expect that kind of complete objectivity in a Sunday Times magazine article, though? To me the context of the article, and the fact that it's an arts-section type of piece, signal that it's not going to be hard journalism. I don't usually read the Times, so I may have a poor idea what they normally run in the magazine.
How you summarize the article might highlight that we were reading for different things, though. To me the story's hook is, "There once was a bad show, which had some fans. It was remade as a good show, which made some of those fans angry." The conflict between the fandom and actual quality is what interests me. A completely objective description of events would make me think, "But why should I care? Why are you telling me about this show in particular, when every show has conflicts we don't hear about?"
if you have an enemy captive, and want to know what makes him tickIn "Flesh & Bone"? They didn't want to know what made him tick. Roslin's the only one who even wanted Leoben questioned; Adama was ready to kill him immediately. Then Leoben told them that he'd planted a nuke on one of the ships, which gave them something to chat about, and made it a very bad idea to perform any experiments that might actually kill him.
They've never demonstrated much interest in why the Cylons do what they do. Cylons kill people. Most of them figure that's all there is to know. Which is part of why Boomer's in such a spot.

I'm pretty sure we haven't.
Adama gave a book to Roslyn once. That's all I can think of.

There's big band-ish music (I think it's a live band, but it might be a recording) at the party in "Colonial Day." And yeah, Roslin and Adama talked about some popular mystery novels in one of the first few episodes.

The features in the magazine are usually pretty good, at least compared to their arts/style coverage in the rest of the paper.
