Speaking of Battlestar Galactica, at last the third season arrives in the UK.
And I mean the real third season, not that
fake third season that got me
to buy the "second season" as advertised on the DVD set when I was in the US
earlier this year. But it’s not just Battlestar that’s back. All sorts of great
American television is washing up on UK shores.
Battlestar Galactica kicks off January 9 on Sky One at 9pm. I spotted a promo
the other day. Given my bandwidth
limitations, I can’t get the Sky One site to load, but TV Genius
lists it happening them. So I guess it’s Tuesday at 9pm going forward.
Desperate Housewives kicks off tonight with its third season. Like now. Like
on TV in front of me, in a double episode. Channel 4 has info on it
here that tells you everything but when it’s on. Good job, Channel 4. Looks
like Wednesdays at 9:30pm.
Ugly Betty also comes to Channel 4 this week.
Info here, and the series
runs on Fridays at
9:30pm. Can’t wait to see it.
But wait, there’s more! New ER begins this Sunday at 10pm. Maybe that’s the
repeat for the series opener. It’s all to slow for me to tell. Check out more
from TV Genius
here. Last season was so bad we stopped watching. But if Abby’s about to
give birth…
But wait, there’s even more. The OC. New! Fourth season new! After the death
of Marissa. And how I loved Marissa. Who didn’t love her. Actually,
I grew to dislike her and
swapped allegiances to Summer who was far more with it.
Finally, it’s not American, but if you ever find a DVD for Green Wing in the
US, buy it. Fantastic UK medical comedy, completely off the wall. A special
airs tomorrow at 10pm on Channel 4. Can’t wait. I love TV!

Down with the Cylons! Forget New Caprica, head for Earth!
Ah…. the BSG. Didn’t know my fellow orangatang county friend was a BSG fan. I remember my dad taking me to Mile Square Park in Fountain Valley to see the old school cylons in some kind of press or PR activity. Since then… I’ve always loved the story. Even have my wife HOOKED on it
Can ya believe it!
Take care Danny, hope all is well.

You will be sad to hear that Fox announced today that they are cancelling “The OC”… I was just as sad!
Don’t go for the OC but after Annalee Raved about the new series – I got hoocked.
Unfortunetly I don’t have Sky so I have to wait till it comes out on DVD.
Though one odd though struck me about the running gag on vally wag about Marissa being a robot – It just struck me that Matt Cutts reminds me some what of Chief Tyrell.
