I'm phoning this in because I didn't specifically rewatch but I've seen it a bunch of times between actually watching and vidding.
When I watch the mini now, I think it's obvious how much Katee and Jamie really grew in the roles. They were good in the mini, but they were fantastic when it went to series. Their line deliveries got soo much better and more nuanced.
I don't think anyone has any doubt about who my favorite was then and remains now. She is my favorite kind of heroine, a badass and a rebel, yet talented and skilled at her job like nobody's business.
I didn't warm up to Lee for a very long time, as I thought Jamie Bamber was really not a very good actor and thought he was probably too much of a pretty boy for my liking at first. And yet, I enjoyed the pairing because they clearly were setup as conflicted and hot for each other.
One of the non-shipper things I loved about the mini was how they clearly were all a family and fighting together despite any mini personal squabbles. It's so odd and touching to see how much pride Gaeta and Chief (Chief may have even been a favorite before Kara was. I was intrigued by Kara yelling Make a Hole and punching Tigh, but Chief was so instantly lovable.) and everyone had to serve under Adama.
