Wow, here it is, the half way point of the front-ten episodes. We’re pretty optimistic that some CRAZY stuff is going to go down from the preview we saw last week… and from the comments on “The Road Less Traveled” it looks like you guys have high hopes too. What did YOU think of “Faith”?? Let us know, for a chance to win some sweet Alienware goodies!
More Starbuck the crazy captain hunting her while whale… and this time she catches a Leoben just before her crew decides to Mutiny. A lot happens in this episode, but did it keep your attention? Did it give you your BSG fix? Matt and Nat enjoyed some parts more than others… what about you? Let us know!
Written by Battlestar Prometheus‘ Ryan Keeton and Galacticast’s Rudy Jahchan, featuring the wild and wonderful characters in attendance at the Season 4 Premiere Frak Party in Vegas, this is BSGcast’s answer to the Battlestar Galactica Top 10 List from David Letterman.
So, “Escape Velocity” in a nutshell was brilliantly directed by Eddie Olmos (”Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down”) and masterfully written by Jane Espenson (”Dirty Hands”… anyone else notice Galen’s nod to that episode “to put her up against the bulkhead and shoot her”), but did it have enough action to keep everyone happy? We’re stewing the character arcs now, we know we’re getting ready for what is sure to be a massive cliffhanger for episode 10 of the season, but did it keep everyone satisfied for another week? Watch this week’s ‘cast and leave us with your thoughts for a chance to win some wicked Alienware goods.
Another monster plot development episode, yet somehow three Cylon Baseships blew up, and the mother of a Human/Cylon Hybrid got tossed out an airlock. Nice. Nat has her love of seeing the end of Cally, and Matt has a few problems with the episode itself. But we all loved that Epic Pimp-Slap, right? What were your thoughts? Let us know and you can win all kinds of goodies from Alienware in addition to the usual bragging rights for being a visionary and a genius! For the Mid-Season cliff-hanger we’ve got a $200 pair of Alienware Ozma 7 Headphones up for grabs! And just you wait to see what Alienware has in store for us to give away for the Series Finale…
Oh, and Matt makes mention of the Starbuck: Angel/Agitator SciFi promo video in this BSGcast, if you haven’t seen it, check it out here:
There’s a whole series of these, one for Six, one for Lee, Roslin, Baltar… good fun.
Matt + Nat get back to the regularly scheduled BSGcast with the second episode of the regular season, “Six of One”, with lots to say about Cylon Insurrections, Multiple Super-Pimp Baltars, and Lee’s increasingly pop-star wardrobe… and a nice surprise or two for you from our fellow BSGeeks over at Alienware!!
PS. If you’re looking for some details on the headphones that Alienware wants us to give to you, check them out HERE ! Matt’s already jealous that he can’t win them… They’re $200 headphones!
The beautiful and talented Luciana Carro, who played Starbuck’s Nugget-turned-CAG nemesis ‘Kat’ in Battlestar Galactica, sits down for a chat with BSGcast Las Vegas Correspondent Rudy Jahchan to talk about her experiences on the show, what she’s up to now, and the information she’s privy to for Season 4.
Guest correspondent Rudy Jahchan gets the enviable opportunity to talk to one of the smartest people on Earth: the Science Advisor on Battlestar Galactica. It’s some seriously hot geek on geek action that is not to be missed… not to mention the fact that Kevin knows who the final Cylon is, and might just be willing to talk… for a price!
At long last, our season has begun… and for a lot of fans like us, it began in style! With Dr. Kevin Grazier, Science Adviser on BSG, and Luciana Carro, AKA Captain ‘Kat’ Katraine, along with a room full of YOU we managed to have a pretty epic BSGcast to commemorate the premiere episode of Season Four!! Thanks to everyone who made it such an amazing party, and a great chance to meet so many friends in person!
The episode should be downloaded to your iTunes Podcasts by now… If you haven’t yet, you should subscribe!!
So what do you think? Should we throw another one of these for the kick-off to the back 10 episodes? Where should it be?
Since the release, we’ve been furiously watching the new Season 3 DVD set, the single biggest BSG DVD Box Set ever, and it takes one BIG BSGcast to cover it all. We go into the commentary tracks, special features, and dive right into the really meaty stuff: the Deleted scenes… including the 25-minutes of extended “Unfinished Business”.
Whether you’re on the fence about buying it, or you’ve bought the set and want to chat about it, this is one BSGcast that will make you watch Season 3 all over again! .
