Galactica

Last night was the season finales of all three of SciFi's original shows, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and Battlestar Galactica. Wow. That was some really good TV.

Yesterday reaffirmed my belief that Galactica is the best show on television right now. We had a really difficult choice by Laura about fixing the election. The moral choice won out over the choice that both her and Adama knew was the best for the survivors. President Baltar has already shown himself to be a very poor choice, thanks to the "one year later" jump. We've got a new Cylon model and it's Al from Quantum Leap. The fleet has been decimiated, not by a Cylon attack but by neglect. The colonists now on New Caprica are revolving against their leadership. And we now have a huge Cylon fleet in orbit with an occupying force on the ground and a total surrender by Baltar.

Damn good TV. All that and no new episodes until October. What the frack is that all about?
