Emphasis was made that this was the plan all along and that no other factors played into the decision.

I think Judge is gonna cry! Oh well, I never got into it anyways.

I just saw the newer Doctor Who for the first time last night! Gotta love those special effects (It was the episode where Rose messes with the Tardis and goes back to see her mum and dad before dad bit the big one, the Reapers were hilarious!), but man, those Brit chicks still got it going on. Though IMHO the new Dr. Who (I'm sure it's not so new but to me it is) looks like a "wanker."

My first memory of the actress who plays Rose, was this movie about a milkman who turned into a prize fighter. It was some comedy, but for the life of me, I can't remember the name.

I remember seeing her and thinking, she's going to make in film.

I thought she kind of looks like a very young Kylie Minogue myself. Kylie had that same look about her, but as she got older she just became more and more beautiful as her looks matured and she lost the "innocent little girl look."

Actually I am pleased with the fourth season being the last of Battlestar Galactica.  What makes me pleased about it is that we know, going INTO the season that this is going to be the last.  We have the creators and writers PLANNING it to be the last, and so they will do justice to the story line. 


Do I wish the story could continue?  Of course...but if a season is to be the last, it is best to do it this way...plan it out.  It is much easier on the fans, much easier on the cast and crew, and better for the community over all. Maybe sci-fi DID learn a lesson or two from Farscape and SG-1. 

(Oh, and BSG going off the air IMPROVES my chances of getting MY show on the air, which is far better than BSG. Just wait and see.  Heck, the comic book will be coming out in late July, early August and I'll provide a link to it if anyone is interested).

Judge, I'm definitely interested. Let me know what its called (if you can, yet) so I can pre-order it!

For those interested, there's a couple BSG comics around, and I use sci-figenre.com to get them shipped to me directly. So yeah, ROCK ON BSG!

I'm sad to see it go, but I'd rather see it go the RIGHT way and not dragged out.

All I know is that a week after news broke that BSG was cancelled, Jim Henson Productions called and asked if our script was still on the market. 


If that's not good news, I don't know what is...

While you are handing over your script, please tell him to bring back Farscape...  I miss Gigi.

Well, since Ben Browder and Claudia Black are out of work again, I was thinking to re-write two roles so they would be a perfect fit for the two.  Might as well right two more in, one for Anthony Simcoe and another for Gigi. 

Just as long as Ben ends up on my casting couch, it's all fine.  Well, Robert's threatened to dump me if I do that, but he said he'll forgive me if it's videotaped and I give him a copy of the tape.  *sigh*


BTW, here is the guy that is handling all the production issues:  http://labelsareforcansentertainment.blogspot.com/  (I'm just the writer and creator, he has to do all the hard work).  There are two covers up on the site for the comic book.
