Re-watching now that it's all over, I couldn't get over how young everyone looks. They all look like babies in this, except maybe MM, EJO, and MH.
That is what hit me when I rewatched it. It is amazing how incredibly young and innocent --and completely unaware of all the tragedies ahead them-- they all look (especially Lee and Kara). It makes me nostalgic –-and a little bit sad, too. I don’t know, it hurts a to see pilots when they were angst-free and… hopeful.
how much I disliked Lee.
haha! Really? I remember I disliked the Lee we saw at the very beginning, when he climbed down from the viper… But after that I fell in love with him –especially since the “lady is in charge” moment ;)
Given the backstory that RDM gave us in the finale, their scenes seemed kind of muted here, even the awesome scene when Lee comes back from the dead.
That backstory doesn’t make much sense, does it? I don’t know… right now I think that whatever happened between them while Zak was alive, they decided not to talk about it ever again and got over it… That’s why they spend the whole S1 in that sort of denial state.
But they're pilots and they're awesome and I loved getting to know them again.
Yes! That’s the attitude! They are awesome no matter what! They share such an insane chemistry that… I don’t know, I enjoy every scene they have together.
