Supernatural is one of my favorite sci-fi television shows, and one of the lead actors, Jensen Ackles, shows a lighter side to his stage performance, here:

A little BSG rant…
(For those of you still catching up, this is a Battlestar Galactica plot spoiler!)
Okay, now that I’ve had time to recover from the shock, I need to commiserate with all of the BSG watchers out there–WHOA!! Can you believe this latest plot arch??? I’m sure we all saw a plot-twist coming with Starbuck’s character, but the writers managed to take my expectation, roll it into a ball and slam-dunk it through the hoop. I never imagined they’d kill the girl! I know, I know, she’s probably not really dead, but the myriad of scenarios explaining why this could be so form a black hole of speculation from which one could never return!
“Maelstrom”, for several reasons, was very difficult for me to watch. I was extremely relieved to see it end, having cried through most of it. Now I want to know, Where is this arch going? And when will it get there??? Being the insanely curious and impatient person that I am, this rates very poorly on the Meter of Contentment!
Also, while barely being able to bring myself to watch “The Son Also Rises” on last Sunday, I thought I saw something. Did any of you notice that the population count in the opening credits was down by ONE? I hadn’t paid any attention to it before, so I’m not sure if this is significant.
So, what are your theories on what happened to our beloved character (who has always, by far, been my favorite)? I haven’t decided what I think yet, but, there are a few scenarios swimming around in my head, most of which lean towards a human-cylon hybrid messiah figure.
And what’s up with Baltar’s Puppetmaster/clepto attorney??? He’s an interesting character…I kind of like him!
With all of this free time I’ve suddenly found I have fallen back into my old, lazy ways. Namely, television watching. I don’t own a television set, but (ha!) I own a computer, and what use would it be if I couldn’t find free internet tv? Of particular interest is the website AmericaFreeTV. There are classic movies, sci-fi, comedy and cartoon channels, and the internet stream is of a decent quality. Another I like is Retrovision. Lots of classic tv movies and shows there too (best run on IE, though, which is a bummer for me since I am a Firefox devotee). Granted, you won’t find the latest episode of Grey’s Anatomy or CSI; but it’s entertainment, nonetheless. Check ‘em out!
