I like Uncle Joe. Despite the fact that he's pretty much Tony Soprano in
good physical shape. The son is a spoiled, entitled (mob style) brat who I
guess will be the father of Admiral Adama...if I have the geneaolgy
straight.

Jonathan? Do you mean Daniel Graystone? Zoe's dad? I don't find him even
a bit sympathetic. It's his products...inventions...that have done possibly
irreperable damage to their society. And I don't think that's overstating
it. Mind you, I'm not even counting what we know is going to come of his
Cylons.
The assistant? The scientist working on Zoe's Cylon? He's now dead isn't
he? He turned on her in a heartbeat when he saw what she was.

Eh...just a sad, innocent victim. I guess the Adamas are the most tolerable
and sympathetic. The Graystones are clearly the villians in my mind.
Again...not a lot to "like". But I still find it intriguing. A cautionary
tale of unrestrained tech and unseen ramifications.
