    Yep, tune in tonight on Sky One to watch the crew of the Galactica fight on New Caprica against the evil Zylons. I hate those damned Zylons!

    Today's Metro praises Galactica as a TV highlight, and a good series, but shoots itself in the foot by calling the race Zylons. Can we really believe they've watched the show? *Sigh* Maybe I'll look around now for that 80s cartoon "Around the World with Willy Nilly".

    I was gong to grab a metro and everything but the lights changed :(

    Era, I wouldn't be too bothered. Both the Metro and Herald AM are cobbled together pap.

    At least it's good to see BSG get praise from the tabloids. Who cares if they can't spell?

    Would Jade be able to spell Cylon?

    I'd imagine Jade's version of a "Six" would be some sort of pediatrician-battering chav. Where we get some nice orchestral music at Six's appearance, Jade's cylon would manifest itself to the sound of Eminem, dressed in a hoody, and verbally abusing everyone around her for daring to look at his "bird".

    No philosophical debates about a higher being either. Instead a more simple discourse: do chickpeas contain chicken? Does everyone like my kebabs?

    With such a premise, it'd probably be an instant hit. Ronald D. Moore beware, 'Prattle"Star" Craptastica' is heading for TV..
