Article on Women and Sci-Fi Misses the Mark - Again

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

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 [...]

How Tigh Lost That Eye

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

Wonder no longer how Tigh lost his Eye. It’s all Aaron Doral’s fault! The clip above is from a deleted scene included on the Battlestar Galactica season three DVD set, and is available for free viewing on the DVD launch website.

In the Season 3 premiere, I thought it was intriguing that D’anna Biers (Number 3) points out that Caprica Six was the first Cylon to commit violence against another Cylon. (As you remember from Episode 218, “Downloaded,” Six cracked D’anna over the head with a giant rock and then freed Anders.)
But immediately after this revelation, [...]

The Fairer Sex

Sunday, September 24th, 2006

While reviewing some older episodes the other day I made an observation. All the cylon females are smoking hot and all the cylon males are, well, kinda geeky looking (except Brother Cavil who is just cool and doesn’t count).
Is this a cylon observation of the human race? Did they think looks were more important for the [...]
