Olmos is a bit more patriarchal as Adama than he was as Castillo on "Miami Vice" though. McDonnell was wooden in the miniseries, but has grown into the role, doing espeically well this week. 102728@blogcritics.org Fri, 10 Dec 2004 23:03:40 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/08/234337.php#comment-102693 This show is a wee bit patchy. Some of the episodes are great and at least one is pretty durn lame. I think Edward James Olmos does a great job as Adama. (Althought not too much of a stretch since he basically plays it like the character he played in Miami Vice.) 102693@blogcritics.org Fri, 10 Dec 2004 18:52:13 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/12/08/234337.php#comment-102689 The miniseries was different enough and hokey enough to scare me, but good enough for me to give it another chance. Too bad I've canceled DISH in the meantime, I guess I'll wait for the inevitable DVDs. 102689@blogcritics.org Fri, 10 Dec 2004 17:38:50 EST
