There is no better soothing for waking up with a headache than discovering good news. Sci-Fi has renewed Battlestar Galactica for a second season (and the ratings continue to be spectacularily good). Call me a still groggy but very happy fangirl. And so far, I've managed to stay spoiler free for episodes 9-13, though it's hard. *casts accusing look at [livejournal.com profile] hmpf*

[livejournal.com profile] vaznetti has some intriguing thoughts and questions about the Civilians on the show, and what their lives must be like. Have a look.

And on another note, it's [livejournal.com profile] john__crichton [livejournal.com profile] kernezelda's birthday, I hear. May it be a happy one! In the grand tradition of hobbits handing out presents to others on their birthday, Kerne apparently has caused several good writers to delight the fandom at large with fics about John and icecream. So far, I like this one best. You know me; while other people go for John/Aeryn, John/Chiana and John/Scorpius, I'm John/Rygel all the way...

It has been a wonderful day, and I thank you for your well-wishing.

Flora's fic is a lovely thing, isn't it?

It most certainly is. It captures the whole bittersweetness of the episode, and you know me - John/Rygel 4eva!

Oh, *excellent*! I'd been so worried the Sci-Fi channel would kill it.

Do the dance of joy! This is such wonderful news, I was so hoping I wouldn't have to watch those thirteen episodes knowing that's all there was. May it continue to rate its socks off.

(The mini is coming on TV down here Saturday night. Must encourage everyone I know to watch it.)

I'm busy doing just that. The Farscape and Firefly curse is broken! Hooray! Valtoo!

Isn't it just? BTW, meant to comment on your Bastille Day review, and I will, if I find the time.

Wheeeee!! I am so relieved to hear the good news about BSG. I love this show so much.
Some BSG trivia: The show (Mini-series and all) was shot in Vancouver. Hopefully the next season will be shot here too, so there may be opportunity for cast sightings..
The guy who plays Helo, Tahmoh Penikett, was born in the Yukon, in Whitehorse. His father was the Yukon's premier and member of the Legislature for 18 years. His mother is part of the Dene nation, and was born in a tent in Snag, near the Alaska border where the coldest temperature on earth (-63 degrees C) was recorded. Tahmoh moved to Vancouver and began his acting career at the Lyric School of Acting. (trivia gleaned from today's newspaper, which has a biggish column about Battlestar Galactica in it).

That is one interesting bit of trivia. I've been to Alaska, but never to Canada, and know too little about the way Indians (Native Americans? People Disenfranchised By History?) live today.

Vancouver: gave this genre girl so much to love. Highlander, early X-Files, X-Men 1 and 2, and now BSG...

Also Tru Calling, Stargate, Andromeda, Smallville, and oh yes, McGyver...No wonder there are a lot of UFO spottings in this area!
