Battlestar Galactica

Well, frak me! Comedian Patton Oswalt is joining the cast of "Caprica." He'll play a talk-show host. I love Patton Oswalt and I'm sure he'll be great...but, seriously, how weird is this? Who goes from stand-up, "The King of Queens" and "The United States of Tara" to "Battlestar Galactica?"

Word on the virtual street seems to be that Bryan Singer, director of the two good "X-Men" movies and "The Usual Suspects" among other things, is attached to do a "Battlestar Galactica" movie that's on the fast track.   Moreover, that movie will have nothing to do with the recently complete...

Recently, the CW prez said she hoped "Smallville" would continue beyond its upcoming season, its ninth.   (For some spoilers as to what's in store for the show this fall, check out here and here.) Well, she's the prez, and she can probably make it happen if she wants to. Which is not necessarily...

The good news is that we've got a premiere date for "Caprica," the new SyFy series based on "Battlestar Galactica." "Caprica" takes place 58 years before the Cylons destroyed the Twelve Colonies. We'll follow the lives of Joseph Adama, father of William, and his good buddy/archenemy Dani...

FOX today (Friday) is airing "Virtuality," what was supposed to be (and may still, if the stars align) a pilot for a series from Ron Moore, one of the honchos behind "Battlestar Galactica." "Virtuality" is about a crew on a deep-space mission with huge potential implications for the human...

We love "Battlestar Galactica." But sometimes, love hurts. And that's what happened Friday. Our fears of an unsatisactory end, they are growing. Here's some of our thoughts about the latest, non-greatest episode.   Raoul: Yeah... So... Shouldn't there be some action in a show?   Kate: Yes. I also thi...

Raoul:  What else was there to this episode? The spreading of goo all over Galactica. Kate:   Anders waking up. Tyrol wanting to leave the fleet. Roslin creepily addressing Caprica. Kate:   But at least next week's episode is Starbuck and Mommy Starbuck.

For a butt-kicking space adventure, there sure was a lot of time spent on romance. Starbuck loves Apollo. Leoben loves Starbuck. So does Anders. Adama loves Roslin. Helo loves Athena. Saul loves Ellen. No, wait, he loves Six. Now that she's realized she's a Cylon, Tori loves everybody. And Baltar l...

No doubt about it, we both loved last Friday's hell raising, ass-kicking episode of "Battlestar Galactica." Here are our thoughts on the mutiny aboard Galactica, Gaeta's fate, Die Hard, and "Star Trek Voyager: The Reckoning." Kate:  Right, before Sam got kidnapped. But I'm talking about...

K:  Right. Four Cylons are in the fleet, not five. So that is crazy! R:  I think it would delegitimize the show if Helo or Roslin were Cylons. I could accept Baltar as one, possibly. K:  I think "The Hub" was the Emmy episode. K:  All of those intense Roslin scenes. Emmy gold.

I feel bad, because "Battlestar Galactica" is one of my favorite shows and one of the best on television. And yet, because it comes on Friday night and because we generally take the weekends off, I tend to not post about it.   But a few episodes into the final season, I thought I would just vent so...
