Just finished the first season on dailymotion.com.  Fantastic season, fantastic series.  I've got to get through the 2nd season and catch up so I can start watching it on TV.

I watch the show every Friday night. I think it is one of the best shows on TV.

I don't think many Desipio's watch it though, shame.

Comcast has it in the On Demand section.  If you miss it Friday, it's available for weeks afterwards.

The show is about as good as TV gets.  Current without being preachy.

The boxing match episode was as good as TV gets.

I'll have to check the OD section.  Looks like they're wrapping season 3 up soon.  I'll have to get through season 2 and maybe get the season 3 DVD.

I believe the correct term is "Desipiots".

Desipiot: n. The preferred term to use when describing the nerds, dorks, tools, knobs and wankers who visit www.desipio.com.

Season 3 so far has outdone the second season as a whole. Maybe one truly mediocre episode so far whereas Season Two had a few clunkers. Season 3 starts back up in a few weeks and moves to Sundays at 9 p.m. CST, so you might not want to wait for that DVD.

Mo Ryan at the Trib is a big-time BSG geek and her blog is a good place to check for updates....

It hasn't been signed to a fourth season yet and the ratings have dropped, but SciFi may very well sign up for a new season, according to rumors on the Internets.

First half of the season finale was damn good.  I'm looking forward to where this is going....

Now if only Comcast would get their shit together and pick up Universal HD (so I can watch this show in HD), this would be my favorite show on TV.

We started watching this show about a week ago.  We've just finished the first season, and the first episode of season two.

It's an entertaining sci-fi show - better than a lot of Trek, and pretty enjoyable even if there aren't many laugh-out-loud moments.  However, I will have to say that it's no Firefly, even if they had a Firefly ship in the mini-series.

I think thay are different types of sci-fi shows.  Galactica is more drama where as Firefly was more drama/comedy.  There were a lot of funny throw away lines in Firefly.  Galactica is played off as if this were an actual event, and really, where's the funny in the destruction of mankind?  Both are extremely well written.  It's really a shame that major network tv doesn't pick up a sci-fi show.

Season two was hit or miss...some good, some not so good....  Season 3 has been great or good.  You have much to look forward to.

If you guys met the one person who mentioned this show in my office, I bet you would never watch it again.

Fair point. But you didn't have to deal with them in person.
