October 4, 201015 yr New season starts tomorrow 5th October 9 pm SKY 1. Time to catch up with Destiny on it's headlong charge across the Universe, if it drops out of FTL long enough that is.
October 7, 201015 yr Not a big fan of this one but I did set the series record last week on the off chance series 2 might improve.
November 10, 201015 yr I've been relatively impressed by it so far, but I'm a sucker for space opera. I see Caprica's hit the skids (again).
November 10, 201015 yr Yes, either it's improving or I'm getting desperate. Probably both. I really couldn't get into Caprica though. About time we had some really decent new Sci Fi on the telly.
November 11, 201015 yr Author The last two episodes were really disappointing. Tuesday 2nd, messing about with the 'stones' for most of the hour, what was that all about?. Tuesday 9th, Destiny senses Colonel Young is feeling a bit down, so promptly drops out of FTL and refuses to come out to play until he cheers up!, pathetic. There seems to be an awful lot 'padding out' in this series. Edited December 26, 201015 yr by Blew it
November 11, 201015 yr I wish I hadn't watched all of BSG in one fell swoop at the beginning of the year - now, if there was something as good as that out there I didn't know about, I'd be made up.
November 12, 201015 yr I thought BSG was a mix of good and bad episodes too. it varied from brilliant to downright depressing. Stargate Universe is strange amalgam of BSG and Stargate and lacks the wit of the original Stargate. I don't much care for any of the characters, either, which is never a good thing. The ships not bad but if I don't get a hint of where it's going soon I'll be back to the discovery channels.
December 29, 201015 yr There's no Sam Carter type eye candy for the gents to ogle , no O'Neill/Mitchell/Sheppard/Mckay comedy going on , it's all a bit dark and depressing, but some of the characters are getting more interesting. I liked it when Col Young headbutted Dr Rush. The 2nd series is better than the first.....and there's nothing similar on, so I'll stick with it. BSG? When I googled it the first hit came up as British Society of Gastroenterology, but I bet your talking of Battlestar Galactica. I never really watched that. I tried when it was first on, but it had that shakey camera style all the time which makes me a bit dizzy. I think NYPD blue were to blame for creating that 'style' of filming?

December 30, 201015 yr Apologies for the acronym - I was being lazy. Yes I agree the series has picked up and strangely enough we did get a hint of where Discovery is heading not long after my last post. Could it be the inside of the Large Hadron Collider? - heh heh. I'll be watching the rest of the series - if it can keep the current interest going.
December 31, 201015 yr Sad to say chaps, but it's been cancelled by Syfy. The idiots! I hate it when they do that. It's not like they're likely to make a blockbuster film to wrap it all up like they did with Firefly.
January 3, 201115 yr I had a deal with the Missus. She'd make the effort to get in to 'Universe' if I gave NCIS a go. Now I'm a big Gibbs/DiNozzo/McGee/Ziva fan and they give Universe the chop! :o
January 7, 201115 yr Damn and blast it! Just when it was picking up again, they pull the plug. Stargate Universe Cancelled - Slashdot Ah well, there's still some great Space Opera I haven't seen (going by the rave reviews); so I'll be looking at some Firefly and Farscape this coming few weeks.

As for Caprica, well that's another three episodes to see in the next couple of days and then it's gone for good.
January 7, 201115 yr Can't beat a good book for some really great space opera. Still considering giving Babylon 5 a try. It does seem popular. Just couldn't get into Caprica.
April 9, 201115 yr Author 2nd half of season two The second half of season two starts Monday April 11th, 8pm on Sky1 HD In December of 2010, it was decided season three would not be produced. In January 2011 however, 'Universe' producer Joseph Mallozzi has suggested season three may yet be filmed, fingers crossed!!.
