Me & The Boob Tube, Part 2….

Second up is Battlestar Galactica. Wow. Frakkin’ wow. This show is a remake of the 70′s show of the same name, but it is a vastly different retelling. It’s dark, dark, dark. It’s very real in the way the humans deal with their predicament and each other. The Cylons are multi-dimensional where they had no depth in the original. The characters are rich and the storylines are deep. I have found myself actually sitting on the edge of my seat watching this show.

In these two scenes from ‘Exodus, Part Two’, the Galactica is attempting to liberate the humans from the Cylon-controlled New Caprica. The Galactica makes a full-balls-on move to drop into the atmosphere, deploy Vipers and jump out. Breathtaking! Then later in that episode, the Galactica is severely damaged and all seems lost when the Pegasus, helmed by Adama’s son Lee, comes to the rescue. Check it out…

    I’m afraid by the time we heard how great this is, we were too far behind. We plan to start catching up on DVD very soon.
