jesus christ this show is good. ive downloaded the episodes i missed and watched them one or two a day now. ive been doing it for a month and a half now, and im constantly amazed at how high they manage to keep the shows quality, especially compared to lost, which has been foundering recently. its instantly now in the top 5 tv shows ive ever seen.

You are talking about the new version not the classic 70's or early 80's version.

It's brilliant but so dark that sometimes I have to step away. Like I did with Milennium.

I love the show, but the commercials they're running now for when it returns later this month have awful music.

Are you talking about the original with the guy from the Alpo dog food commercials? Otherwise, I have no idea what you are talking about.

It's a good thing you're not Canadian or you'd be lynched. Lorne Greene was so much more than the Alpo Guy. I mean he had a hit with that "Ringo" song and everything.

And, no, BG has been redone on Sci-Fi as a dark, brooding, smart and disturbing show with Edward James Olmos and Mary McDonnell.

Lorne also wrote "Heroes" and founded Judas Priest.

You got it a little mixed up. He formed Tin Machine and wrote "Hot Rockin'."

my friend jp, who is the most awesome girl ever but also the world's biggest liar, told me a few weeks ago that she was late meeting me because of this show. i figured she was just being jp and lying again. so, other people watch this show and like it? i'm still not going to watch it but at least i'll know that jp once told me the truth.

Tons of my friends are obsessed with this show. I've seen a few episodes and it's pretty good. But the main reason to watch is for the insanely hot korean/cylon girl. OMG. Criminally hot. Just ridiculous.

This show is incredible. I'm embarrassed to like it as much as I do out of fear of being bumped into an entirely new nerd bracket, but there is no denying that at least the first 2 seasons (I just got to 2.5 on the DVDs) are awesome.

And yet she's like the third or fourth hottest cast member on the show. Crazy.

Except she's the worst actress in the show, next to Kat, who is in mercifully few scenes.

Yup. We didn't know that when we first started ordering it on Netflix. Very confusing may I add.

But holy shit did we get addicted to this show. I'm going bonkers waiting for season 3 to come on dvd. They keep screwing around with the release date. It was supposed to be last month, then this month, now who knows.

I heard this coming season is going to be the last. That sucks.
