It's worth noting that Starz should be applauded for embracing Claire's sexuality, and not backing away from it. Her sex drive is a huge part of her character, and while I think some of their exploration of that was a little on the nose (*cough cough* oral sex in the ruins *cough cough*), it's refreshing to see a fully realized female protagonist who isn't afraid of her body. The other surprise for me was Tobia Menzies' portrayal of Frank and Jack Randall. I've always found Frank to be pretty tiresome, but for the pilot actually made me like the man, and feel vaguely sympathetic towards him. That said Menzies clearly enjoyed sinking his teeth into the juicy and malevolent role of "Black" Jack. I can't wait to see more.
