Wasn't that scene with the accent thing odd? Like the weird close-up on Baltar's mouth and the sound made it seem like the accent was some sort of effect rather than Callis doing a voice.
Kaylee: Captain seem a little funny to you at breakfast this morning? Wash: Come on, Kaylee. We all know I'm the funny one.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
BTW - who was Dresden in bed with in the very first episode? I really wish they would do the web rebroadcast Heros was doing for a while.

Wasn't that the diner waitress? i.e., the girl he was watching the movie with this week?

OK - so the same woman as last night. So Dresden is in a continuing relationship with her?

Well, her comment on leaving seems to suggest that there was some attempt at that, but - for example - he met with Murphy at the diner in the first episode - which she took the wrong way and then, they're watching the romantic movie and Bianca shows up. She seems to think that he's less interested in a relationship than she is.

I really liked it, actually. I'm sure it was Callis doing a voice, but I loved that it focused on his mouth, where the words were coming out IN that accent, the entire point of his monologue.

Hmmm, another reason to pick up HBO

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I saw that part of the episode, and all I could think was, "That's not... actually much of an accent?" Really, I had a coach once who was a Geordie, and it was like listening to a different language entirely.
Also, generally speaking, when you fake up a rural/working class English accent, and use it for dramatic purposes to speak about social class in a different context, the aristocracy is not the first target that comes to my mind. That kind of muddied waters more for me than if they'd had him faking up a Russian accent.

Damn! Vampires AND Anna Paquin.

Well, the Aerolon accent seemed kind of Cockney-ish. And while I'm glad that they sort of explained Baltar's English accent, they did not explain why NO ONE ELSE HAS ONE. Was the entire Caprican aristocracy destroyed, I guess?
