Well, it was bound to be a disappointment...
The Galactica season opener was a bit below average for this series, but then "average" was pretty good last season. The storyline did not advance much this time and this episode was a lot more predictable than the earlier efforts, which is a disappointment. Still, BG still sets high on the TiVo Season Pass list.
I liked Ben Browder on “Farscape,” but hated “Stargate SG-1.” We TiVo’ed the season opener and will check it out to see if Browder’s charm translates from “Farscape” sufficiently to salvage SG-1. I doubt it, but am willing to give almost any science fiction series a try.
Sadly, yang to Battlestar Galactica’s yin is “The 4400” on USA. Mrs. Gaz and I tried really hard to like this one, but it is just SO TV [predictable, mawkish and heavy-handed] that we are pretty much ready to bail.
If we did not own the DVD set, we would be very excited about “Firefly” coming to SciFi. If you missed the show when Fox was sabotaging it, you should check it out. The movie version is coming out this fall.
