Yeah, I like serious shows that can do comedy, and earlier Trek used to do it all the time. It's one of the things that can turn me onto a show, it's certainly one of the things I like about Joss Whedon shows and Stargate. It's also something I think BSG can lack, though I think a lot of the jokes they do get's edited out; there are certainly a few deleted scenes on the season 1 DVDs that are worth a chuckle.
