| Battlestar Galactica #5: Appliances have feelings too!   Banners by Cati New to the show or missed an ep? How to catch up: (1) Miniseries (equivalent of 4 eps) Available on DVD. See (2). Don't buy this unless you want the 40min miniseries lowdown and deleted scenes. Also available through iTunes. Can download and watch eps on an iPod or on your computer. (2) Season 1 Available on DVD. The Region 1 DVD (North America) contains the Miniseries + thirteen Season 1 episodes (equivalent of 17 eps in total). Also available through iTunes and reruns (Saturdays on Universal HD). (3) Season 2.0 [ 2x01-2x10 ] DVD, iTunes, reruns. (4) Season 2.5 [ 2x11-2x20 ] DVD, iTunes, reruns. (5) "Resistance" webisodes [ 10 x 2min episodes set between seasons 2-3 ] The official website (6) First half of season 3 available through iTunes. Second half begins Sunday, January 21st @ 10pm on SciFi Channel. SkyOne begins airing season 3 on Tuesday, January 9th. Reasons why we love Battlestar Galactica 1) Because it's a great human story with complex and flawed characters, an excellent cast (including two Oscar nominated actors), and a talented composer (see especially 1x13, 2x05, 1x10, 1x12 among many other eps). Quote:
3) Because it's epic, intense, emotional, and thought-provoking. 4) Because how much fun is trying to guess the secret Cylons 5) Hardly any technobabble. If you remember that Raiders are enemy fighters and Vipers are the defenders, then you should be able to follow along just fine. 6) Where else will you find a show with character names like Starbuck, Apollo, Boomer, Helo, Crashdown, Racetrack and Hot Dog?  7) Because this is one remake that critics love more than the original! * Peabody Award (2006) * AFI Award (2005, 2006), top 10 TV programs as selected by the American Film Institute Quote:

| Well, one week away from the S3 Premiere  Jerry...I shall take what you said about the sci-fi boards in mind as I browse them to see about posting there. So, I watched all the S2.5 DVD episode with the podcast commentary...learned some cool stuff for the most part and there was a lot of Ron Moore skipping key scenes and talking about other stuff that's not essential, but for the most part he did OK. Of course, the famous background noise was commented about several times. Ron said that "you have to be tough to listen to the podcasts"...and I guess I'm tough  I really wish they had included more cast interviews/specials in the DVD extra's but who knows, maybe next year?

| in an article interview with RM, he states that some of our beloved characters won't make it through the entire season....  Noooo! It better not be Helo or Sharon - though Sharon really can't die...though I mean 'Helo's Sharon'  I love this show and I can't wait till it premieres  __________________ Jayta Mark and Lexie LJ Community - come join My Fanfiction Damon/Elena  Jeremy/Anna TEAM ANNA TEAM DAMON | |||

| I could be mistaken, but I think the reruns of bsg are being affected by the one hour move, too. Late week it was shown at 01:00, not 02:00 EST. | |||

| No prob Alex, just wanted to give you fair warning before you dove in. I have my fav threads (appreciation threads) saved off, so I can find them easily. If you wish to remain spoiler free, watch reading the thread titles too much, they'll blind side you at times. Cati! Great start off for the thread. Wonderful job, and thank you for launching us. For those interested, BSG Media has Promo still for Exodus up...12 in total. There are some really great Hi Rez shots. __________________ "Be quiet brain, or I'll stab you with a Q-tip!"

| In such a large ensamble cast, someone has to die to keep the realism going ...like Billy last year. I don't think it's going to anyone major...like Adama, Apolo, Starbuck, etc. Maybe someone like Callie, Dee or Gaeta? I like Ron's interviews. He's very insightful as far as the direction of the show. He gave us quite a bit about "Carprica"...which I'll check out but I don't think It'll be as good as Galactica can anything be at this point? Just three more days to go!

| I'm sure it will...it's a great 12 minutes. I love the utter coldness and efficiency of which Kara works. Very nice. And to live up...here are some promo's from Exodus.   __________________ "Be quiet brain, or I'll stab you with a Q-tip!" "Tact is for people who aren't witty enough to be sarcastic."

| I wanted to give people a heads up that scifi.com has posted interviews with most of the cast regarding S3 and the direction of the series 1 day away!  ...The best show on TV returns!The cast is pretty much agreeing that the first two episodes of S3 are the best they have ever done!

| Everyone has beaten me to all the goodies I was going to post. (Man, those promo shots are gorgeous. I love Katee Sackoff with long hair.) But, my level of excitement has gone up dramatically with every little new thing I've been reading. And I can't wait to get home and watch the opening scene for tomorrow's ep. Does anyone know how/if it will tie into the webisodes? | |||
