Well next week Sci-Fi Friday kicks off a new season of...
Stargate SG-1 Stargate Atlantis and Battlestar Galactica
All three shows are top notch, Ben Browder and Claude Black from Farscape fame are now regulars on SG-1.
His name slips me, but he played Skinner on the X-Files will be on Stargate Atlantis.
The new season of Battlestar Galactica will be awesome, it will be cool to see whats instore for the Rag Tag Fleet in season two. I'm hoping Richard Hatch the original Apollo will have more of a role as Thomas Zarek these time around.
Sci-Fi Friday will be COOL!

Stargate SG-1 has been one of my favorite shows since the first season. It will be hard to replace Richard Dean Anderson, but I am looking forward to the new characters.

Is next week the Sci-Fi premiere of Firefly as well? Frankly, I'm not into Battlestar Galactica or Stargate, but I thuoght I would catch Firefly when it starts.

I'm up in the air with Battlestar. I think I'll lose interest if Adama dies or is out of it for most of the season. Starbuck annoys me for the most part and I thought Apollo got the shaft as far as focus last season.
I think Stargate Atlantis is what I'm most looking forward to. Great first season and I can't wait to see where they'll go with this one.
SG-1 looks interesting with the cast additions but it might be jumping the shark with that decision. But the show definately needed a spark and the Farscape people could definately bring that.

I will be camping with my sons, but have left explicit directions with my wife on taping BattleStar Galactica.
I rarely "get into" TV shows, but this show had me hooked from the first episode and I don't think they have really had a bad show in the run so far...

Pete I agree that BG had a great first season, every episode was solid. This second season looks to have all and more of what they had last year. Helo is the one character I hope will not die, and I hope he will lead a revolt on Caprica, from what I hear he remains on Caprica.
Stargate SG-1 was not seen through the whole season last year, the show is a hit-or-miss most of the time. Now with Browder and Black on board with a few others this should be a great season.
Stargate Atlantis has two new characters, and this will be a season to watch... how will they defeat the Wraith and what will we see in any new enemies.
It's been along time, but Sci-Fi Friday's are back with a kick to the mouth.

I loved the first 7 or so seasons of SG-1, but I had a hard time getting into last season. Once the mid-season break came, I never saw another episode. Same with Atlantis, watched the first half, missed the rest. Hope this season keeps my interest more.

Stargate SG-1 started off stiff acting wise, but it was good to see Browder, Bridges and Black on the show. Stargate Atlantis was the better show, man I can't wait to see what happens with Ford. It will suck if they kill him off, but maybe thats not their plan. I did not stay up for Battlestar Galactica, but I did tape it. Overall the first two hours had a great feel to them, the last hour for sure will end the night well.

SG-1 was good, not great. I do like Browder, but not sure about him being the 'head' of the team over Carter, but maybe that will get resolved in part 2. I paid little attention to Atlantis, it just didn't hold my interest much.

I just watched lastnights Battlestar Galactica, and it kicked a**! This has to be the best show on Sci-Fi, and it just keeps getting better. If my guess is correct, Adama and Tigh are former prisoners.

SG-1 was ok but it didn't really give us any clue on where the show is heading from this point. I was hoping to have a few more questions asked.
Atlantis was good but I'm not sure about the new character whenever he shows up.
Galactica was good for the most part though I hope that Adama isn't out for most of the season. I don't like Tigh as the commander. I liked the cliffhanger.

I've been very pleased so far with the new season's of Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Battlestar Galactica. SG-1 has been good, but not as good as Atlantis. Atlantis has a solid storyline with hiding from the Wraith and trying to help Ford. SG-1 has a solid foundation for the Oreye (sp?) and I like Browder and Black on the show. But the best of the best is BATTLESTAR GALACTICA! This show is hot every week, and my favorite character's has a small role but Richard Hatch as Thomas Zarek rules! I have to say that I love the original series, but this new one knocks out anything on tv today, plus I see some similar themes from the old series within the new one which is good.

After watching Battlestar Galactica, this has to be one of the best episodes. Michele Forbes plays Admirel Kane of the Battlestar Pegasus, she is one evil woman. This episode reall makes you root on all who are on Galactica, and even the Cylons Boomer and Number Six. January Season 3 kicks off, and we know the two sides will fight... but maybe not. The Cylons could end up attacking the fleet and that would make both Battlestars fight side by side. Overall this is the best Sci-Fi/Drama show on TV Today.

Personally I have not yet really gotten into Sci-Fi Fridays that much. Now Sci-Fi Wendsdays with Ghost Hunters and Tripping the Rift.

The Cylons could end up attacking the fleet and that would make both Battlestars fight side by side. Overall this is the best Sci-Fi/Drama show on TV Today. Being in the Military i would love to tear apart all in the last episode of Galactica that would not happen...While the Admiral would be in charge, he/she would not likely try to pull the power play as they had her do in this episode. I was wondering what took Adama so long to snap...I know he has a certain "flair" for perfect timing and getting the crew to do what he wants...but my patience wore thin with Kane early on in the episode. This show is one of the best Drama's on TV period...SciFi or not. January cannot get here soon enough for the continuation... Haven't seen Ghost Hunters (just not something i am interested in) but Tripping the Rift is a great show. I don't watch it regularly, but when i do see it (usually Sunday nights) i am laughing my @$$ off! Not your kid's animated series!!!
