BSGcast: Season 4.5 DVD Box-Set Review

Friday, October 30th, 2009


It’s taken quite a while to pour over the hours and hours of featurettes, commentaries, videoBlogs, deleted scenes and of course, Extended Episodes on this, the final DVD Box-Set we’ll ever see for Battlestar Galactica. Not to mention getting it signed by President Laura Roslin herself. And at last, we announce the winner of the Mary McDonnell signed Season 4.5 set, along with our thoughts on the DVDs themselves.

Hot on the heels of this baby is our review of The Plan, along with details on how you can win dinner with Admiral Adama!

BSGcast LIVE 4.22 – “Daybreak Part 2″

Friday, March 20th, 2009

This is it… let the sobs of joy and sadness begin. Our beloved show has come to an end in a two-hour TV event that none of us are soon to forget. And how did it end? With a bang or with a whimper? Let’s start discussing it!

We had a great time at the Sports Centre Cafe downtown Toronto, and shot an immediate LIVE BSGcast, post-episode, to get some fresh reactions from Melissa TheTelevixen, Rambling Russel Hale, Tamika, Tim and Steve ‘Snowball’ Saylor!

Make sure your Alienware-eligible comments are on this episode, because our FINAL regular season BSGcast will be shot on WEDNESDAY of this week, where we’ll be giving our final thoughts on the series finale, and announcing the winner of the Alienware Gaming Machine!!

BSGcast 4.21 – “Daybreak Part 1″

Friday, March 13th, 2009

We were in Austin for South by Southwest and got to watch Part 1 of Daybreak at the Alamo Drafthouse! We managed to shoot in the lobby of the Hilton across from SXSW and got some great theories from fans like us after this doozy of an episode! It was simultaneously esoteric and tense and after this one, Daybreak Part 2 is shaping up to be one hell of knock-down drag-out battle from front to back!

BSGcast 4.20 – “Islanded in a Stream of Stars”

Friday, March 6th, 2009

The very last of our non-two-part-cliff-hangers for the season. Can’t you tell? Ah, it seems like every episode of this season has been one cliff-hanger after the next, but with Hera in Cylon hands and Anders acting all kinds of Hybrid, there’s lots to talk about in this momentum-building tee-up of an episode!

BSGcast 4.19 – “Someone to Watch Over Me”

Friday, February 27th, 2009

This episode gave us shivers in all the right places and all the wrong places… it’s been a while since Battlestar delivered SO solidly on both stories in an episode, but in this run up to the end, we can definitely expect more of it. Between the Helo/Boomer/Athena affair and Starbuck playing piano with her head-father, “Someone to Watch Over Me” Has definitely given us a serious tee-up for the next three episodes to come!

Since we were just in Orlando for MegaCon this weekend, we have a nice added gift for the “Fan of the Week” from this week’s comments, so have a look, make a comment, and hopefully you’ll win!

For our fellow Toronto Frakkers, we’ve got a March 20th Finale Frak-Party on tap for you taking place at The Sports Centre Cafe in UpTown Toronto, so hop on the Facebook Group for more information and to RSVP for the event. This is in our home town, and it’s looking like this will be the party we’ll be hitting up for the Finale, so come join us!

BSGcast 4.18 – “Deadlock”

Saturday, February 21st, 2009


This week’s episode featured a stellar performance from Michael Hogan during the plot about Tigh and Six’s baby in the wake of Ellen’s return, and curious side-plots about Baltar’s Harem and Galactica’s paint drying… yet we couldn’t help but feel like this episode came up short on actual plot. Compared to “No Exit” last week, virtually any episode would feel like it’s standing still, but with only 4 episodes left and SO much more to be explained, by the end of “Deadlock” we were both pretty underwhelmed.
