My Inner Geek
My inner geek is ready to come out on Friday night, April 4. Why you might ask...well it is the start of the last season for BSG -- Battlestar Galactica for the uninitiated. In my opinion it is one of the absolute best shows on television today. I know, I know, I hear it all the time -- "You like that sci-fi crap?" Well in a nutshell, yes I do, but BSG is the show that truly breaks away from the sci-fi mold. This show can stand on its own up against the big boys. This show tackles real issues and real life scenarios -- genocide, suicide bombings, cloning, bio-weapons and other heavy issues. At the same time it peels back the layers on the characters, none of which are without their flaws. There is a real human element to the show. I am convinced that had Tara given it a chance in the beginning it would be one of her favorites as well....I just could not get her past the fact that it was on the Sci-Fi channel. For anyone interested I encourage you to catch up on the last three seasons by watching the following clip "What the Frak is going on".

Very interesting...David says the same exact thing about me! I've tried on multiple occasions to get into this show. In fact, both David and Tyler absolutely love that show. I turn it on and fall asleep 15 minutes later. Go figure. I'm sure it is all that you say it is...it must just be a short-coming on my part.
You have to give it a chance.....
