A recent article — on how Battlestar Galactica could save your marriage — includes a commentary on why women love BSG by sometime-geek chick Martha Brockenbrough, a former contributor to Slate and the founder of the SPOGG, the Society for the Promotion of Good Grammar (which I totally respect). But I beg to differ with [...]

While veiwing the rewatch with everyone, I witnessed a scene in “33″ where Athena shoots Six in the back and then drags Helo off with her into the forest.
The first time I saw this episode I didn’t think much of this act - just that Athena was trying to defy her fellow Cylons and save poor [...]

Okay, this may have been done before (I’m way too lazy to check out the fan ‘verse to see), but here goes. In the spirit of the less-cerebral and sillier side of GWC…Vote for your favorite money shot! (Or add one if you don’t see it here.)
Male money shot: 1.) Lee dropping the towel in [...]

There’s been a lot of really good discussion here in comments regarding the colonial attempt at genocide in A Measure of Salvation, and I thought I’d run down some of the arguments along with some of the commenters espousing them.  Since I’m exerpting, you can click on the commenter’s name to see the entire comment [...]

The biggest issue in A Measure of Salvation, IMHO, was the question of what makes us human — a question that’s core to BSG and has been addressed in many different ways in the show to date.  Are we human because we can love?  Because we hate?  Because we can reproduce?
When Adama and Roslin stood [...]

OK, I’ll admit it.  I was a little let down with the last BSG episode as well.  (I say “as well” because I’ve seen the comments on the last few posts and the last podcast, and I know that a good number of you feel this way as well.)
One question, though: Wouldn’t almost anything feel [...]

I’ve noticed an interesting theme running through BSG - being trapped. It’s interesting how being trapped, held, or imprisoned - physically or psychologically - can affect people.
Some physical examples we see- Sharon in the cell on Galactica, Six (Gina) in same cell, Roslin in the brig, Lee in the brig when Adama is shot. Helo stuck on (Old) [...]

I mentioned in podcast #8 that at least four weddings between main characters have taken place off-screen since the fleet’s settlement on New Caprica: Starbuck and Anders, Chief Tyrol and Cally, Dee and Apollo, and…Helo and Sharon. In the Season 3 premiere episode Sharon is formally inducted into the fleet (again), given a uniform, and [...]

We received a call today reminding us that Sharon actually named her baby “Hera” — after the Greek goddess, we’d imagine.  In Podcast #5 we refer to her as “Isis.”  Technically, both of these names are correct as far as we can tell.  Though Sharon originally named her “Hera,” her name was changed to “Isis” [...]

I’ve noticed that people who appear to be from certain ethnic backgrounds on BSG tend to be from the same original colonial planets, and I can’t help but be fascinated by the relationship between ethnicity in the show and in real life.
For instance, I think every character we’ve seen from Geminon is played by an [...]

I just watched Invasion of the Body Snatchers for the first time the other night (I know, I know) and it was awesome. As you might guess, I was intrigued by how many common themes the movie shares with BSG, especially when they discover the pod people Look Like Us Now.
A really weird scene in [...]
