Battlestar Galactica Season 3


Recommended Posts

My wife has a name for shows like that, they are called 'soap operas'. The B.Dramatica trend continues...

Maybe next week we'll find out if Blair cheated on Sonny and is having Ricardo's baby!?

That's just like Soapoperaville - things turn ugly when Lana's baby doesn't turn out to be Lex Luther's, it's Clark Kent.

How exactly is stating that I'm not homosexual and will never support it, Homophobic? Do Homosexuals who advertise there sexuality get called Heterophobic? Your post is in accurate, I'm not homophobic in the least. I don't hate homosexuals, and certainly am not afraid of them. You are like most, bought the whole spill that homosexuals have fed our society. Wake up.

I hope it is a good episode. :)

I only mentioned it because you seem to have a big urge to announce it in your sig, which brought to mind this article here: Homophobia Associated With Homosexual Arousal: study

back on topic though, I can't wait for the next episode. I do agree though that the show is tarting to turn into a soap opra, they need more action just as in season 1 & 2.

Announced today, Sci Fi Channel has increased its fourth season order of "Battlestar Galactica" to 22 episodes. The order will include a special two-hour "Battlestar" event to air during the fourth quarter of 2007 on Sci Fi, and will also be released on DVD.

Nice... two extra episodes next season plus some entertainment in between :D

Good News Indeed. I was a little disappointed when they only ordered 13 episodes at first.

Actually, its bad news. According to some in the industry, by Sci-Fi ordering the extra episodes, is them saying "we gave you the extra episodes, now end the show" pretty much. They gave them the extra 8 episodes to wrap up the series for the most part, at least that's what alot of people think is happening.

As I said last year, the ratings still stink, Sci-Fi is probably pulling the plug considering the cost involved.

The ratings stink because they moved it to Sundays. What the hell do they expect people to watch, Dresden Files :x ... I think BSG could benefit if they would put it on the same night as Eureka... could be the new SciFi Friday lineup. SG-1 canceled and I doubt Atlantis will survive much longer. On the upside, they could probably turn out at least two more Bruce Campbell flicks on the budget of a single episode of BSG.

The ratings stink for a couple of reasons, first because it is a niche show and second because its on Sci-Fi.

While we all may enjoy it, and think its the best written/acted show on TV right now (which many of us do) it is still a very niche show, sci fi to boot and only appeals to a fairly narrow segment.

Plus it airs on Sci-Fi, which has a habit of nuking shows people love, and never really advertising them right, plus not promoting them and changing schedules to launch/support other Sci-Fi shows.

Notice how SG-1 got cancelled the year after they changed Sci-Fi Friday from SG-1/Atlantis/BSG and now more than likely (again, according to some, just speculation) BSG's last season is season 4 coming up. All because Sci-Fi has to mess with the schedule and switch days and **** people off.

*sniff* Firefly oh Firefly!!!! :cry: :cry: :cry:

I disagree LOC. I don't think the fact that they ordered 22 shows means its ending soon, on the contrary I think it means the opposite. Lets be honest here Sci-Fi doesn't have anything else worth watching beside BSG and they can't very well cancel their #1 show. I think they will milk this as long as they can, just look at what they did with SG1.

I think Sci-Fi will sack BSG next season. If Sci-Fi was truly behind the show they wouldn't have done that announcement of 13 eps for next year. I think there was a lot of back door rangling by David Eick and Ron Moore to get the eps to properly rap the series up. The way the storyline is running I think it's going to end next year. Sci-Fi has never had the will to keep well produced shows running.

Farsacpe is an example. A show lauded for it's uniqueness, well written and acted shows even though it had a bunch of muppets on it. :) Granted it didn't garner as much praise as BSG but still. Sci-Fi openly complained that they weren't able to expand the audience due to Farscape's serialized episodes. They wanted neat little chunk's that would easily rap up in an hour. So they axed Farscape.

So they start up BSG and what do they get? Another serialized show that you can't simply jump in mid season and get it. And Sci-Fi does a horrible job of promoting. They should be constantly running through the old season's episodes at a decent hour so people can catch up.

Sci-Fi is quite content making their $2 sci-fi junk Saturday night movies. And that's all Sci-Fi will ever be. We'll get a glimmer of sci-fi genius every once and a while but it won't last long.

sci-fi just oesn't have enough programming to fill every day of the week. They have enough original "good" content to maybe fill half a day. I would love a scifi wednesday or friday night with eureka or dresdan, sg:a, bsg.

I hope they dont cancel the show, I am fianlly starting to understand the show by going back and watching the older episodes.

I dont get why they dont air the first 2 seasons on like a tuesday and so people can catch up during the week for the new episodes on sunday

So... Saul, Sam, Kara and the President's aid Tory are cylon... who is number 5?

Apperently in an earlier episode, Tyrol was also hearing the music. I'm not sure if i noticed it, but trying to think back I think it may have been in the episode where he and Cally were stuck in the landing area a few episdoes back.

    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
