You know, when I was a kid, I LOVED the series, the first season was perty good but then it went to shat when they "Crashed" on Earth and were running around in Boy Scout uniforms.

Ugh...

Anyone seen the new series on Sci-Fi

OMG!!!

Probably one of the best series ever, ties with Las Vegas.

Awesome.

As for Iron Chef, I can't wait for the new series. Looks great. I saw that one trial run they did last year and it was cool as hell. Alton Brown is my hero.

I had never watched that until yesterday or day before... can't remember. They were doing the marathon before the new show, and I actually stopped to watch it. I think I watched five episodes of the 1980 Battlestar Galactica. It was actually very good, I might try and see the rest of them now. That giant Xylon robot thing was sooo cool looking lol. Not bad for a really old show.

I saw the first episode of Battle Star the other day and boy was it good!! This show goes into the suffering that the people have from from war. They've already gone into how it would be on the run lacking supplies, combat fatigue, individual stressors, Bartar having hallucinations, sex starved Cylons and Apollo may even have PTSD has he had a flashback from destroying a civilian passanger ship, the ship has a Mexican as it's leader, a black as an officer on the bridge, sexy asian cylon/human, whites everywhere, and a good looking woman as president...very well put together.

The old one was okay, while they were in space, but it got rediculous.

The new one. WOW! Reminds me of Space Above and Beyond.

Word. Prolly the best series I've ever seen start. This and Space Above and Beyond. God I loved that show.

I thought that was insane. They got attacked 238 times, every 33 minutes.

I'm an avid cook, I love to be in the kitchen. I've got a half scholarship to Johnson & Wales if I ever wanna go. Food network rocks. Now my wife can cook REALLY good.

Dude, I used to watch Iron Chef all the time. I remember when Morimoto kicked Flay's ass harcore. That was awesome.

I still watch Emeril from time to time, and I might watch the new Iron Chef stuff. I'll at least TiVo it. :-D

The food network Pwns.


Scifi had a remake of "DUNE" a couple of years ago, as well as a sequel based off a couple of the following books. If you happen to have seen the original you should definetly check out the remake......warning though its EVEN LONGER than the original Dune.

I am also looking forward to watching the new BSG.

I am also a big fan of the food network. The new Iron Chef America is pretty cool to watch. The first one was Bobby Flay against some weiner from Oklahoma that was always on Sesame Street and Martha Stewart. He got beat by one point for presentation.
