Ok so I watched Season 2 on Sky One - they still have the special 1 1/2 ep to show, but they showed all the rest in order and weekly. I'm hopefuly that we'll get the new series in January but I doubt it will be earlier.

I'm relatively new to the BSG fandom so after a marathon of episodes, I'm totally in the mindset of needing more. More new eps, more!

But I'm not sure if I love the fact that Ron Moore One-Year-Latered the characters. And I'm not complaining about losing a year; he made Apollo fat!

Sorry, had to get that out.

The "One Year Later" will probably just mean more flashbacks. But good flashbacks hopefully. Like how it was used in Scattered.

With all the speculation aside I can hardly wait for season 3.0 of BSG to start up. They made us wait a long time for this.

For those of you in the US who can't wait for Friday the first act of the premiere is online now.

Go to the Scifi Pulse popup thingy -> Battlestar Galactica -> in the menu choose watch a full episode -> at the bottom of the next menu choose first look.

Or click on this and then choose 'watch a full episode and more' and then 'first look' http://video.scifi.com/player.html?dlid=30611

I am so jealous right now.

You can download the first act from this website

Only catch is you have to register first - but it's worth it. Those first 12 minutes are an AMAZING opener to the new season - but be warned, if you're not going to see the episode this friday, you might want to hold off on this first act!!

Its so good it just leaves you wanting more!!

PS even if you're not in the US, there are other 'internet-based ways' of getting the new episodes;) I know I for one couldn't wait until 2007, which is when Sky One will start airing it.

We're still flying.

That's not much.

It's enough.

So? Nobody wants to talk about the season premiere?

I guess I'm still digesting.

It was certainly up to standards, though I don't think anything would be "worth the wait" of a whole summer of Galacticalessness.

One comment:

Select to view spoiler:


I think Kara's baby was the biggest setup in the world. And I don't think Kara really fell for it. She is one confused little cookie right now, and I see hints in her eyes that she's starting to lose it, but I don't think she was completely taken in by the whole magical kid thing.

Maybe she'll try to take the little girl with her when she escapes.

And waaaaaah! for Duck!

I would love to chat about it, but I have no idea what the frak is going on. Before last week, I had never watched this show, but had read recently that it is the SciFi de jour and wanted to give it a shot. So, I watched the 4 episodes (The Story So Far, Pegasus, Resurrection Ship 1 & 2) running on "On Demand" and have been hooked.

The four episodes I have seen has, unfortunately, left me illprepared in understanding what was going on during the season premier. All I get is the Cylons are monotheists (and appear a little pushy in that regard), the humans are polytheists, and the president desperately needs a .45 slug in the brainpan (squish).

I could not help in noticing, however, the similarities between what is going on in the BSG world and what is going on in the real world. So, nobody get pissed, but are Cylons representative of certain allied nations? You know, holier than thou, an occupying force, and filled with moral certitude...

Anywho, I really enjoyed it and will be buying the DVDs to try to catch up. Seems like a good cast (Olmos has chops), has good production values, and is easy on the cheese. Although, I really need a primer as it will take me quite a while to get through the DVDs once purchased and I have no intention of not watching the new episodes as they are released.

As to your spoiler, it looked like it worked to me, but I don't know the characters...

It might be worth your while to join Netflix (if you're in the US) just to get through the two seasons on the cheap. The DVDs are pricey!

BUT if you find a really good deal on the DVDs please let me know because I would buy 'em if they weren't so expensive.

Wow, your not kidding. I just checked at Amazon and they are pretty pricey. I think Netfix might, indeed, be worth my while...
