This is, by far, the best show on TV. It is in fact the best show conceivably possible.

You owe it to yourself (AND AMERICA) to watch this show.

That is all.

I didn't like it the one time I watched. Mainly because of the blond woman talking in the guys ear, looking like she was there, when she wasnt. I hate that kinda of stuff.

She's still around in a somewhat diminished capacity.

I strongly recommend you watch anyway though.

There is a developer blog I frequent that has an ad for it on the sidebar. The ad alone is enough to make me avoid it (apparently people think these girls are hot?)

Have to agree; excellent show. Between BSG, the two Stargates and Dr. Who, Sci-Fi has become my favorite station. Can't wait for the Dresden Chronicles too.

Jesus fucking Christ...I agree with Latrinsorm. Grr.

BSG is almost operatic in story lines and direction. Absolutely fantastic show.

I must point out that last nights episode of Battlestar Galactica(safely preserved in EP format on my state of the art Sharp VHS) only reinforces that it is the best show on television.

I've watched perhaps one episode only because it was after my favorite SG.

That being said I seem to know at least 30 people who watch it like it is the best show ever..if I ever decide to watch it I'll have to rent all the prior episodes as I hate jumping into the middle.

One of the neat things about the show is that it is extremely accessible; you can jump in at pretty much any old time and very quickly get up to speed.

And yes, last night's episode was A++. Saul might be the most interesting character this season, but if I heard one of the season teasers correctly, Gaius might give him a run for his money.

"The miniseries and the subsequent weekly series have enjoyed general critical acclaim as being superior to the original, leading TIME magazine to declare in the spring of 2005 that the new show was one of the six best drama series on television. It would proclaim the series the best show on television in September of the same year. The American Film Institute named the show to its list of the ten best shows on television. Other mainstream publications such as the Chicago Tribune, Rolling Stone magazine, and Newsday also named the series one of the best on television for 2005. In 2006, the series won a prestigious Peabody Award in recognition of its creative excellence."



Battlestar rules, best show on TV bar none.

Not many models can act. Those women can. If you want to just watch shows with female model types then your viewing choices and show quality are in the crapper. Have fun with that.
