And for my guy, lesbian and bisexual readers you can check out the hot hot HOT photos of Galactica actress Grace Park - Lt. "Boomer" - at Maxim Magazine. I have five words to say about Boomer AYE yi yi yi YI!
This evening's episode, as usual, promises to be extremely good.
When was the last time I felt this way about TV?!?

Posted by: Lynn on February 25, 2005 06:25 PMANOTHER FANTASTIC EPISODE OF GALACTICA!!!! WOW!!! I hope you folks really are watching this show. It's like watching a top sci-fi movie each week. The acting is superb, the script & story was very well written. The cinematography - so rare that you can apply that term to a TV show - is excellent and I never feel like I am watching a TV show. It makes the little I see of Stargate Atlantis before and SG1 afterwards look like... like... hmmm... look like stuff I see on the cable access channel. And the character and story development that took place tonight with Boomer and Balter, and into the psyche of Starbuck was... was... WOW! It's my turn to gush this week. Seriously, if you're a fan of sci-fi and you aren't watching this show... well my friend... your loosing a lot of fracking fangirl/fanboy points and you should hang your head in shame.
So say we all!
Posted by: Will Burnham on February 25, 2005 11:39 PMMy test of how good a show is, is whether it zips by so fast you don't even feel like you've been sitting in front of a TV for an hour. And this one more than qualifies. It's over almost as soon as it begins (much too soon!). I love this show. Galactica has everything - interesting plot, well developed and intriguing characters and surprises galore. Every week they give you "a bit more." It's what Sci-Fi can be, when done correctly.
