Hmmm ~ do they know each other?

[KevinDavis]

Yes......

[neodad]

Cool. Kind of a “Gun on Ice Planet Zero” takeoff.

[neodad]

Hey - Starbuck’s mom?

[neodad]

Never mind. I forgot Apollo did Starbuck so that would be creepy.

Not to change the subject from BG (which is a little too soap-operish for me), but I REALLY like Stargate Atlantis so far this season. The first two eps have been just wonderful. Sorry to be losing Dr. Weir (Tori Higgenson), but the special effects, cast, and plot lines are great so far.

[KevinDavis]

I also like the new planet... This is the best season of Atlantis so far cause the writers have one show to worry about now...

[Tanniker Smith]

Dr. Who had a kick-ass finale, in my opinion. I’m still a week behind with Torchwood. If the Bionic Woman is good, I’ll rent the DVD next summer — then again, I said that about Heroes, having missed whatever marathons they had.

[Jack Deth]

“Stargate: Atlantis” is looking better all the time.

“Eureka”’s finale was well worth the the effort and build up of its previous episodes! I have a feeling Henry will be back sometime next season.

“Torchwood” rawked with the “Cyberwoman” and last night “Fairies” episodes.

“The Bionic Woman” isn’t anything I haven’t seen done much better with “Femme Nakita” and “Dark Angel”.

“Dr. Who” on BBC and Sci-Fi is really starting to grow on me. No small feat from a die-hard Tom Baker fan.

Jack.

If you miss Martha Jones, fret not. Since Captain Jack was so kind to make a guest appearance on Doctor Who, Martha will return the favor. Martha Jones is scheduled to guest star on 3 episodes of Season 2 Torchwood.

Meanwhile, below is a comedy skit of the actress scheduled to be the new companion of the Doctor Who for Season 4.

Man, I sure miss Enterprise.

Orson Scott Card reviews Bionic Woman, Journeyman, Life, Heroes and Friday Night Lights and the last season Heroes (scroll to the middle).

I constantly rely on his opinion that he publish aptly named: Uncle Orson Reviews Everything

Is Catherine Tate the new Companion or is she around just for another Christmas one-shot?

[Tanniker Smith]

Thanks for the link. I gotta whole lotta reading to catch up on!!

[Kuksool]

Catherine Tate will resume her role as Donna Noble for Season 4. Next year, the Doctor and Donna will meet Agatha Christie, and The Ood (From Impossible Planet). Also the Sontarans are back from the Classic Series.

[Tanniker Smith]

Cool. Now if they’ll only do an alternate timeline where the Doctor comes back as Rowan Atkinson . . . .

[Tanniker Smith]

.... or if they’d do a miniseries with Paul McGann about the Time War, I’d be happy.

[gary_b_UK]

Martha will be in five episodes of Season 4 actually, according to executive producer Julie Gardner in a magazine interview a few months ago.

[KevinDavis]

Same here...
