Tigh is definitely having a problem. I think Adama realizes that, and is doing what he can to support him, by bringing him on duty. But that only goes so far as Tigh not interfering in the running of the ship. Tigh's actions in CIC went beyond the pale - not just his insult to Helo, but he was also going against Adama's express orders regarding Gaeta. Adama won't tolerate that. But I also think Adama won't relieve Tigh of duty all together, unless the ship is in danger from him, because he knows that Tigh has nothing else to keep him alive.
I guess I don't see the situation between Kara/Sam and Helo/Sharon quite the same. While it would have been a true demonstration of love for Sam to say he wasn't giving up on them as a couple (and I would've liked that a whole lot), I don't think that the reverse is true: i.e. that he didn't say it means he's doesn't love Kara. He's trying to give her space. It might not be what she needs, but it's definitely what she wants. I also think he's doing the "I'm gonna break up with you, before you break up with me, because it'll make me feel better." So yeah, he's an idiot, and I hope Helo tells him so.
Anyway, I don't care much whether they're together or not, but I'm sad because without their relationship, there's not much reason for him to be around. And I like him. :)
