BATTLESTAR IS BACK



I’m hoping it’s symbolic of an improving world. Battlestar Galactica is back on the Sci-Fi Channel and Friday night becomes endurable. Needless to say, though, the news is not all good. After fleeing the Cylon menace for god knows how many episodes, the remnants of humanity find their way to Earth, only to discover the legendary homeworld is global nuclear toast. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, this is the final season. I am really getting pissed off with these auteur TV shows that coyly quit while they're ahead. First The Sopranos, then Deadwood and now Battlestar Galactica. Thank heavens for South Park.

The secret word is Frak

I've never seen the modern version of Battlestar, my memory is of the 1978 series with tinny sounding Cylons and evil Count Iblis played by Patrick Macnee
