Let me chip in some thoughts on this:
Started off really well: good production values, great gci, no funny droids. And regarding "fan service", it is still balanced. First three episodes where top-notch, easily raking at 9/10 IMHO.
But has started to become too "rounded", too disney-like. Albait the constant killings and shootouts (yup, a way too many aliens/humans die in this one), there is no other risk. No real psychological risk, no real romance (ep 4 was the 8year olds soap opera), no serious dilemmas. Episodes 4 and 5 reminded me standalone episodes of galactica. Peripheral actors (watch ep 5) act like 80s characters also.
I'm still waiting to see where this is going, and I'm not talking about the baby arc, I'm talking about getting serious for once.
