Battlestar Galactica Premiere tonight

Post by CDN_Merlin »

You lucky Amercians. I don't get it. Guess I'll have to wait for a torrent. I'm not waiting 6 months + for it to air in Canada. I find it retarded they don't broadcast it on our version of the Sci-fi channel.

Sci fi will air the first half of the season now, then wait till january for to air the rest.

From what I've read, Space will start airing the second season in november with no interruption, and only being a week behind the US at the end.

Now, how the CBC is going to schedual Dr Who with the playoffs is something to worry about.

i love it. can't wait. i have the whole first season DVR'd. must admit i like SG1 and SGA as well. Friday night makes for some fun viewing on SCIFI.

edit: i feel like BSG is not just the best sci fi on tv right now, but the best drama as well.

Damn, I wish I had seen this thing from the beginning. I caught an episode once, and it seemed very good. :) I just don't want to jump into it after a whole season has already passed by.

"Will you pray with me?"

That scene just gave me goosebumps. Also the planet scuffle... Ouch. ;)

BTW, BSG Season 2 will air in UK in October, so UK will get the second half of S2 first.

I dunno. The West Wing has been getting pretty good again.

Personally, I like Firefly better...but BSG is very good. And I look forward to many a Friday night stuck to the Sci-Fi channel.

Scifi Friday just set record high ratings.

2.1 for SG-1
2.2 for Stargate Atlantis
2.6 for Battlestar Galactica

Thats the highest ratings for ANY show on that network in a LONG time. Usually they're down in the 1.6 range at the most.
