A Tip of the Hat
Hubby and I just watched the two-hour TV movie, "Battlestar Galactica: Razor". We've been fans of the show since it premiered in 2004. Sadly, this will be its forth, and last, season.
But, to the reason for this post. Since watching "BSG:R", we realized we were a little rusty on some of the preceding plot lines; so we hauled out our set of "BSG: Season One", and popped it into the DVD player. We're only a few minutes into the two-hour pilot, when Bill pauses the DVD, and says, "Is that what I think it is?"
"Is what what you think it is?" I asked, clearly perplexed and not sure exactly what it is he thinks he's seen on the screen.
"Look at the sky in this scene," he replies.
Now, let me lay out the scene for you, briefly. The character, Laura Roslin, is sitting in her doctor's office; a big, roomy place with a huge, glass window soaring overhead. You can see blue sky and clouds, as well as airships passing overhead.
Suddenly, to the left of the screen, you see a Firefly class airship go sailing past.
I s*** you not. The shape is unmistakable to any "Firefly" fan.
Trust me, we paused, zoomed in, and studied it with a fine-toothed comb...
...and it's a Firefly.
Way to go Sci Fi Channel!
