This week brings the return of two of science fiction television's best shows...
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA and
DOCTOR WHO.
April 4th sees BSG begin its fourth and final season. As a fan I am saddened to see the ending of the best political drama with religious undertones that just happens to be set in space and feature killer robots.
But I am also extremely amped up to see what great television this show is going to produce this season and to see how many of my questions will be answered.
How is Starbuck alive? Is she the last Cylon? If not her than who? Will the colonists find Earth? Will Pres. Roslin be alive to see it?
Saturday is the return of the good Doctor for his fourth season (or series as the Brits call 'em) and he's got a new companion in Donna. Now I am a bit peeved that Martha Jones isn't riding in the Tardis this season but I am willing to gie Donna a chance as long as she isn't as shrieky as she was in the Runaway Bride special from a few Christmas's ago. Aside from a new companion this season is looking to be really cool with the return of not just one but three (four if you count Capt. Jack from TORCHWOOD) of the Doctor's former companions when Martha, Sarah Jane Smith and Rose Tyler all come back for the final arc of this season which should be a humdinger. There are even rumors that an entire episode will focus on just the past and present companions as they work together to save the Doctor.
This is the start of pure geek nirvana for me.
