Battlestar Galactica

I just got finished watching a marathon session of the new Battlestar Galactica series. I caught most of a re-airing of the 2003 mini-series, which was followed by the series premiere of the "re-imagining". That's about 3 hours of non-stop BSG, though I enjoyed it. And in typical me fashion, I now want to see the original TV movie and the original TV series. The new series airs on SciFi Friday's at 10PM, and it seems I've got something regular on my schedule now besides work.
I don't know much about the series, and I'm a new-comer to the BSG universe, but it seems like a neat plot. Its got the "robots rising up against humanity" concept (similar to The Matrix), but without all the annoying super-cheesy cyber-punk neo-techno garbage. So it feels more along the lines of what I had hoped the Matrix would be, based on the Animatrix Second Renaissance Part 1 and Part 2. BSG also has a neat Star Wars space battle concept as well. Those two themes, put together, makes a rather interesting show. Interestingly enough, IMDB recommends Star Trek: Deep Space 9, if you like Battlestar Galactica. It turns out, DS9 is my favorite of the Star Trek series, so it should be no surprise I like BSG.
In other TV news, Matthew Perry did a guest appearance on Highway to Heaven. The episode is on right now. He's incredibly young, nineteen in fact.
I seem to be turning into a right regular TV buff. I think I get into good TV shows the same way I get into good movies. Ah well, its an acceptable past-time I suppose.
