When Adama tells him "if it were you, we'd never leave" in You Can't Go Home Again, jamie's response takes my breath away.
I read/heard somewhere that Jamie was very uncomfortable with that scene - he felt it made Lee seem needy/insecure. Personally I loved it, because I loved the insecurities Lee hid under his strong exterior. And I loved that Jamie showed us those layers so subltely, never with a sledgehammer. His portrayal of Lee is a study in nuance.
For Katee, as someone said above, I love that she's so different from Kara in real life. She made Kara a living, breathing human being, not the "bravado" caraciture she so easily could have been. And the fact that Katee herself is so different speaks to Katee's acting chops, something I think is often overlooked when you have EJO chewing up the scenery (no, I'm not bitter about the Adama-vomits-all-over-himself from Daybreak, no, not at all)
