So. When Lost first hit the airwaves, I thought for sure it was going to be stupid. I had visions of people running around making coconut radios and concocting impossible silly schemes for rescue. Yes. I’m saying that I thought it was going to be a modern day Giligan’s Island. Boy, I could not...
Now, I know you are staring at the screen going, “What?!” Each and everyone of you has your favorite shows and opinions as to why they are the best. Here’s the difference – I’m not talking about a ‘favorite show’ here – I’m saying that, hands down Doctor Who is the Best SciFi show...
If you're a fan, you remember that the opening of Battlestar Galactica's first and second seasons always ended with: "AND THEY HAVE A PLAN". 'They' were the Cylons and 'The Plan' wasn't necessarily apparent beyond 'Frakking kill all the humans'. Which, if you're a cybernetic lifeform bent on destroying your creators, isn't such a...
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then surely Hollywood duplication, rehashing, rebooting and out right copying must be the key to big box office bank, right?

Well, Friday was the series finale of Battlestar Galactica – if you haven’t seen it yet, or intend to, fair warning – spoilers abound from this point on. I don’t know if this answered all the questions or not – it seemed to, it felt like it did, but then, I also felt myself...
Tonight is the last episode of Battlestar Galactica. That’s not the stupid thing. I understand why the creative forces behind the show are ending it tonight with a 2 hour finale – they want to end things on their terms. They have created this fantastic show full of compelling characters and stories and they...
Thought I’d do a quick review of SciFi on TV from this last week – at least, the stuff that I actually watch. Maybe throw a little Fantasy in as well. Spoilers abound so don’t read if you intend to watch. First off, The Big Bang Theory – what?! This is SciFi?! Well, no...

Dear Hollywood, why not reboot Lost now?
So. There’s lot’s of talk out on the web about how there are plans in motion to reboot Battlestar Galactica as a movie franchise completely separate from the recent series that ran 4 seasons and 22 years on the channel formerly known as SciFi. With this in mind, and since the powers that be...
