This series was always somewhat interesting but as this season has progressed its blossomed into a full blown classic that can hold its own with the likes of Battlestar Galactica and the late, lamented Babylon 5. And, I'm not just confining it to the category of my lifelong, preferred genre, SF; its easily one of the best nuanced and textured series on the glass teat (thank you, Harlan Ellison).
I have to say that Jesse became more sympathetic to me with the USS Jimmy Carter story arc. Now, I could understand what I always suspected with the intro and development of the Jesse character: her decisions were shaped by the tragedy aboard the Carter and the consequences it engendered. She saw the Carter incident as a sign of weakness in humanity's "saviour", in the form of a "skin job" that got too close to Connor and perhaps influenced him to, by her lights, take a gamble with the machines. The fact that her close friends and crew mates were slaughtered by what was in the box to be brought back to Conner and the loss of her and Derrick's baby just compounded the matter.
This is a dark yet slyly humorous series that has taken its time to develop the back story needed for it to thrive as a series. Most of us older SF fans take a look at Battlestar, Babylon, X-files, Next Generation and Entetprise--seasons 3 & 4 (the two Star treks that I think are worth a damn) and weep for the quality we could have seen and didn't during our formative years.
