BSG midseason blues

I love Battlestar Galactica…especially the revised version.  I’ve been a pretty loyal fan from the very beginning.  While I still loved watching, the viewing hours were atrocious.  11pm is seriously a bad time.  So I started to just watch the DVD sets.  I was fine with that.  Then came the long break between the end of Season 3 and the DVD release and I mean longggg!!!!!

Two weeks before Season 4 began, the boxed set was finally released.  My wife and I sped through it preparing ourselves for the final season.  We had a BSG party to celebrate the Season 4 premier.  Then my wife and I slacked off a couple episodes and decided to watch it again when it finally came out on DVD.

With our move, we had satellite installed with a HD DVR for the express purpose of recording BSG’s final season.  Unfortunately, it appears that BSG is on midseason hiatus….until…..January 2009!  What?!!!!!  Utterly ridiculous!!!

I guess Sci-Fi channel knows they have us and although we, the viewers, will complain…we’ll still watch.

BSG Season 3 coming to DVD

bsg3.jpgI’ve been waiting for this moment for months. I’ve diligently been checking the SciFi forums (to my consternation since they don’t mind revealing spoilers and such) as well as Amazon.com for updates on the DVD release. So for those that must have their BSG fix check your stores on 18 March 2008.

I’m on of those nuts who wait until the DVD’s come out. I didn’t use to be that way but when SciFi moved Battlestar to the 11:00 PM slot, I just couldn’t continue. I may not be elderly but with 6 kids around…you get tired and you get tired early.

The new and final season of BSG starts April 4. Once I watch season 3, I’ll write about it.
