The Fifth Cylon Revealed and Battlestar Galactica’s Redemption

April 30th, 2008 · Comments

Honestly, I stay away from blogging about Battlestar Galactica for several reasons.  One of which is that they made Col. Saul Tigh a white man and totally white-washed the main cast.

Quick Review: Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

January 16th, 2008 · Comments

 
I’ve watched the first two episodes of Terminator:  The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and I must say that I am somewhat impressed.
