Life seems to be rather boring at the moment, so I shall just share some links of possible interest.

Battlestar Galactica

bsg_bigbang is hosting a BSG Big Bang Challenge. I had never heard of such a challenge before, but it sounds intriguing:

The objective: write a piece of fiction that is at least twenty thousand words, set in the Battlestar Galactica ( Read more... )

My plans to sit outside and enjoy some of the beautiful weather we are having have been thwarted by the biggest wasp or hornet - I can never tell them apart - I have ever seen. I'm not allergic to the stings, but an attack by something that size would hurt like hell ( Read more... )

Quick post to let everyone know that the excusemyfrench site has their interview with Mary McDonnell up here. Part 1, in which she talks about Laura's character arc, was of the most interest to me. Part 2 is largely a discussion of the United Nations. And I think she misunderstood the question in Part 3, but she still provides an interesting answer!

Some of you may be aware that, this past weekend, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, and Mary McDonnell were in Paris to appear at a panel and accept an award for Battlestar Galactica at the Jules Verne Festival. Jamie, fluent in French, spoke in the language at the panel discussion and most of the interviews he participated in. But, lucky for people ( Read more... )

Battlestar Galactica: The Plan - New Footage Seen.

As the cut states, IGN also recapped a trailer shown for The Plan. If you want to remain spoiler free for that, it's easy to skip that section of the recap, just scroll past until you hit the picture of Ron. Everything after the photo of Ron deals with the series. There are some interesting ( Read more... )

Last night was BSG/Caprica night at the Paley Festival. Either Caprica wasn't discussed much or the people who were there covering the panel are choosing to focus on BSG. For those not caught up on the series, beware of spoilers in the reporting.

The Futon Critic has partial recap of the panel with more to come later today. Ron made at least ( Read more... )

I had envisioned this day as a 'Get Things Done Around the Apartment Day as BSG Plays in the Background Day'. Instead, I've paid more attention to BSG then intended, spent the day reading a lot of wonderful posts, and having an unexpected email conversation with beccatoria. When I finished responding to her last email, I clicked on my Flist and saw Ron ( Read more... )

I'm at home watching the Battlestar Galactica marathon, waiting for the final episode of my favorite series ever to air. For the record, I didn't just take the day off to watch Battlestar (and hopefully get my laundry done), I have five vacation days to use before April 14th. I've been reading people's posts about what Battlestar means to them, ( Read more... )

I have a bit of a headache at the moment so I'm hoping my thoughts here make some sense.

Mo Ryan has been doing a series of interviews/reviews on the final episodes of Battlestar Galactica. I generally read her posts, but not the comments. I'm sure people have interesting things to say, but, long ago, I opted to dedicate my time and energy to ( Read more... )

Was anyone else disappointed in last night's Chuck? Half way through I began to think I should have watched House instead. That's about the same time I gave up trying to use the 3D glasses which didn't work well and hurt my eyes. But my main problem was the actual plot. Chuck has a far fetched premise that, by and large, they've been able to ( Read more... )
