Default Battlestar Galactica
Did anyone else watch this series? Pretty awesome if you ask me! Took me 5 years to get into as I thought it was a little too sci-fi for my liking... but boy was I wrong! Think The Shield in space... Well, in terms of the themes and tone of the show haha.

Oh, and to make it a little more relevant to the site, there were a few openly gay characters who I gotta say were excellently portrayed. Real guys and girls who's sexuality was merely one aspect of them. In this universe sexuality aint a big deal. Heck, the Admiral of the fleet (technically the most powerful human alive) was a lesbian!

If you have watched it - what did you think of the series finale??

Oh I really like Battlestar Galactica!!! I watched it when it was TV a few years ago but then they took it off I don't think I've seen series 3 and havn't seen series 4...
I'm thinking of getting them on DVD but haven't yet... time and money...

it's been on Ten HD sometimes like Smallville. I kept forgetting to record the last series so I'm way behind. is it true there not making anymore?

I loved it when Lucy Lawless started on the show, I used to watch Xena religiously when I was a kid, I named one of my horses Joxer. God I was gay.



I also really liked the original series from the 70s.

Lucy Lawless' character, D'Anna/Number 3 was another of the LGBT characters! Had regular threesomes with Gaius and Number 6 (aka another copy of Gina from my above post). Yeah... I focused on the relationship side of things a little too much hahaha.

Yep ammonite, the show's over . The two hour finale was on a couple of nights ago... was hoping I could discuss it with some samesamers!

Buuuut, there's another tv movie and prequel spin off series in the works

Speaking of hotness:

Have you seen any of Joss Whedon's new show Dollhouse, Thrwan?

First 4 eps were rather shite, 5th ep was so and so, 6th ep was pretty good. Seems like the show might be going somewhere! haha.
