buzz tv show: battlestar galactica

who'd of thought sci fi could be so sexy?

i'm the first to admit when my pop culture blip skips on things that i learn to enjoy later on (degrassi being the biggest miss on my part). so when more than a few friends started to talk about battlestar galactica with that exhilirated speech pattern, i knew that i should give the show a go.

funnily enough, sci fi channel did a full day of season 1 repeats last week (with three highlighted shows on nbc over the weekend) to prepare for the much anticipated 2nd series premiere this friday (july 15).

of course this current version of battlestar galactica is a complete remake of the 1978 classic (richard hatch even has a recurring role as a political prisoner) with some twists (starbuck and boomer are both played by women, the cylon (ie the bad guys) have infiltrated humankind AS humans and best of all everyone is getting it on).

darker, intelligent and totally taking it's time with plot twists and intrigue, this show has officially made me into a scifi geek... and i love it!
