I recently started watching Battlestar Galactica after hearing some co-workers excitedly talk about it at work. By the time we watched 2 or 3 episodes (the first of which was a 4-hour miniseries) of it at lunchtimes, I started watching it on the internet at home. I don’t think I’ve become addicted to a tv series this quickly before. It’s taken up most of my spare time. Where I used to read, I watch Battlestar, Where I used to game, Battelstar. Guitar? Galactica.

I wish I’d started watching this back when it aired so I could have made the same journey my fellow co-workers have made over the past few years, but at the same time it’s good because I don’t have to wait a week to watch each “new” episode.

I’m currently half-way through season 2, and I can’t wait to catch up so I can watch the final few episodes live when everyone else does.

So say we all.

When i first saw the trailer for the new Star Trek movie I thought the actor for Spock (the guy who plays Slyer in Heroes) was going to be hard to take seriously, but after watching some of The Original Series I find he actually looks quite similar to young Leonard Nimoy. I AM, however, going to be making Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz references whenever Scotty is on screen.

I hope they throw a Tribbles reference into the new movie.
