Caprica - Reins of a Waterfall

Still moving at steady pace and saving the big bang bit for the last seconds. I think that's just how they are going to tell the story. Battlestar Galactica was very space opera - battles and fights. Caprica is more classic science fiction - philosophy, metaphors, and speeches. And it would appear to be aiming for something far more serialized than episodic, which is going to change the story structure immensely.

Crusoe

Via Netflix. I really should have paid more attention to this when it was actually being broadcast. It's very Roar / Lost World / Relic Hunter action adventure, which I must admit is right up my alley. Toss in some humor and a supporting cast headed by Sam Neill and Sean Bean and I'm happy. We'll see how far they can get before the absurdity of trapping him on that island while still bringing in a new guest star each week overwhelms it all.

Sacrifice, pt. 1: Farscape Episode Review

In which no one is trying to kill them - yet.

What Happened

Crichton and Chiana investigate a planet where Jool and D'Argo are involved in an archeological dig, lead by Vella. The Idolarans once maintained a galactic peace, but vanished millenia ago. Vella thinks that if they can find three probes and turn them on, they can turn off the magnetic storms that ravage the planet. When Vella turns up dead, the Old Woman Noranti tells John that the Idolaran probes must never be found and shows John a vision of the past to convince him.
