Don't know how this happened. Probably it was because we don't channel surf by the SciFi channel that much (we tend to use only the Favorites button on the Comcast remote), but the bottom line is that we managed to miss the existence of Battlestar Galactica for the past three years!
We finally got into the series this weekend. We got the DVD of the mini series, and watched it Saturday. We also got season three from Costco and ordered Razor, and we will go through those on a future weekend. I am still debating whether to get season 1 on HD DVD, although the price is a bit too high right now.
We already got a couple of the new episodes recorded on the Media Center, and have the series programmed in it. I got the free downloads on X Box Live as well, and downloaded the podcasts to listen to while running.
If you have any suggestions as to how best to approach the series, please leave comments.
The series has many layers to it, and touches on interesting and complex plot themes. Not as brainy as Twin Peaks, but with a certain darkness reminiscent of Blade Runner.
If you also managed to miss Battlestar Galactica, get going fast, as the final season is underway.
