Got to watch the mid-season finale early today while at work.  My thoughts are hidden behind the “Read more” link so as not to spoil anyone who hasn’t seen it yet and doesn’t want details early.

TVSquad.com currently has a poll running for “Excellence in Outsourcing”.  They’ve come up with five TV actors who do amazing American accents, and wouldn’t you know it, Jamie Bamber (a.k.a. Leland “Apollo” Adama) is one of them.  Currently he’s losing to another favorite Brit of mine, Hugh Laurie, but people shouldn’t underestimate the BSG fandom.

I may or may not have downloaded this Friday’s episode of “Sine Qua Non” thanks to some kind UKers. Since a lot of people haven’t seen it yet, I’m putting it behind a cut so you won’t be spoiled. I’d also avoid reading any comments this may generate as well if you want […]

Liked:

Semi-glad to see Lee back.
Very glad to see Laura verbally beat up on Lee.
Adama and Tigh getting down to business together when the basestar shows up was great.
I love that Galactica doesn’t look all pretty and shiny.  It’s a nice touch that I think would’ve worked in favor of other shows like Star Trek: Voyager.
Nice […]

Alright folks, it’s the discussion question you’ve been waiting for: Who is the Final Cylon?
Being the devoted fans we are to the show, there are all kinds of theories out there about this person’s identity (I’ve even heard some ideas of it not being a person). But being the scientist I am, I need […]

Liked

Starbuck’s art; it’s just pretty to look at and makes sense that she would paint everywhere to try and sort things out.
Kara Thrace is more frakked up than ever and major kudos to Katee Sackhoff for being able to pull off that level of acting.
CGI space scenes make me smile. The close up of […]
