Frackin' frack ! (In a good way, though)

Gah. SO much Battlestar Galactica over the last three days. I watched the 2003 miniseries straight on Saturday, and I've been "acquiring" the 1st season since Sunday. I'm up to 1x11 now, and it looks like the crap is finally hitting the interstellar fan. Luckily Sci-Fi's running a marathon of this season that I'm recording as I type, so if I can get around to catching the last two episodes left in S1 tonight I may be caught up by the time 2x06 rolls around. I have to say, I'm finding Baltar to be really annoying. His shtick fell flat for me after five episodes. Must someone always walk in while he's having an intimate moment with "Six" (the character I often find myself referring to as BSG's version of Seven of Nine)? Come on, peoples. And I've fallen for Starbuck quite hard. *sigh* She's so dreamy! And, uhm, Apollo isn't that bad either. Heh. We could make us a sammich that'd be outta this world...

What else? Caught the Tommy Lee show on NBC tonight. It was funny in a car crash sort of way. I keep wishing he'd get kicked out of marching band, but they've had all the publicity of him in the uniform, so no dice. Something to keep an eye on.

Back to pining for BSG for me.

I haven't seen the new BSG yet, but I'm itching to start getting some season 1 eps. Maybe this weekend. :)

You should start with the 2003 miniseries, which is set-up for Season 1. That one is also "acquirable", but you can find it in your local Blockbuster or at Netflix. Very good.

And you should stay in series. No skipping around. The pacing of the show is slow and it's not episodic, so if you missing an episode here or there you'll come in slightly lost.
