He was an actor on the show. The original was Glen Larson's show, and he's Mormon.  Second, you appear to be operating under the assumption that their society evolved the same way ours did. It takes a bit of imagination to be able to see it that way; a bit of imagination you clearly don't have. It seems that your mindset doesn't allow you to think outside of your own limited worldview.  Lastly, what's nauseating is your bigotry, indicated by your use of the pejorative "homos". I'll put up with evolution deniers, but bigotry around here is not acceptable.  First, it wasn't Lorne Green's show. He was an actor on the show.

The second one tried to suggest that people of faith are all polygamist ding-bats. The third one ended with two homos and a little boy. That's enough for me, I won't be watching it anymore. Notwithstanding the lame storyline and unimpressive effects, it stinks of leftist rhetoric which most of us find nauseating. The new BSG was no different with its evolutionist propaganda. Lorne Greene would be spinning in his grave if he knew what a mess they made of his show, cornball as it was; it still had a lot more going for it than this drivel.

He put his heart and soul into his work to make something good, something wholesome that was suitable for younger audiences. Second, their 'society' is fictional. It would be better if they just made something for entertainment purposes instead of trying to push their own perverted 'worldview' on everyone else. Like I said, I won't be watching it anymore. Lastly, sexual perversity is not a 'race' or 'ethnicity'. Peoples' rightful disgust with such abhorrent things is not 'bigotry', the very idea is ludicrous; although I wouldn't expect a brainwashed liberal wind-up doll such as yourself to understand that.

I'm not sure how I feel about so many of the characters' insistence that the robot be referred to in a gendered way, even the ones who don't know that Zoe's in there. And Amanda's meltdown at the memorial felt a little forced. The only part I actively disliked is the opening credit sequence. (It felt really shlocky.) Still, I'm looking forward to where they go with it.

The line about "I promised Serge some time alone with the U-87.." was hilarious. Until you remember that that is his daughter....Ew! Except he doesn't think it is his daughter anymore because the unit malfuctioned and he thinks Zoe's personality has been lost. There were some amazing bits of writing in this episode and the ending took me completely by surprise. Fridays just got interesting again!
