I'm not sure, it's hard to explain. It's just written so well, and the acting is AMAZING!
I really don't like sci fi much in general either. I was never into any of the star treks (or various offshoots), or Starwars, etc. The only sci fi shows I've ever really liked have been Battlestar Galactica and Firefly.
I only started watching Battlestar about a year and a half ago, while I was home sick and there was a Battlestar marathon on sci fi channel. I watched it all day, from the first episode, then when out THAT NIGHT and bought all of the DVD box sets and proceeded to watch them all over the next few days.
DAMN, I'm telling you, the last episode...the mid-season finale...is SO DAMN GOOD, I have watched it SEVEN times!
That scene where Tigh confesses to Adama is seriously amazing.
