Battlestar Galactica.......Check it out



Yes......I've been away for a bit. Super Bowls and the extreme winter blahs can do that to ya.....Also, I was very busy watching Battlestar Galactica.

The Sci Fi channel hit has always been on my list to watch....but I just couldn't seem to get around to it. A friend of mine has been bugging me for ages to do it......Well I did....I I didn't do it lightly. About 2 months ago.....I had two weeks until the final BSG season premiere hit.....so I watched the miniseries, and 4.5 seasons in two weeks! Yes.....I blasted through around 100 hrs of programming in two weeks........and I loved every minute of it.

What makes it so good. First....the characters are fleshed out to the Nth degree. You know who, and what these characters are. 2nd- Exec Producer and head writer Ronald Moore knows how to ratchet up the drama, suspense, and action in a tight little package. Some things happen on this show you wouldn't believe. Even with 3 shows left to go....I have no idea where it's going, and I couldn't love it more.

If you love good drama with a little Sci-Fi mixed in....this is the Gold Standard!
