The Fellowship is pleased to present a celebration of the 40th anniversary of the original Battlestar Galactica TV series. It didn't last long, and the sequels were never quite as solid, but it still broke some ground in sci-fi television. Lots of reminiscing and our usual odd behavior, as well as our picks of the week.
What we're up to this week:
[Apologies for the Skype twitching at the beginning. It goes away pretty quick, I promise :-) -m]
Mikey's Big Bag 'o Nothing® - super busy this weekend, big pile of comics to wade through soon
New Chaykin book Hey Kids! Comics! - interesting reading
8/14 is the anniversary of the release of Rocky Horror Picture Show (and a little Heavy Metal film tangent too)
Murder on the Orient Express (2017) - pretty good remake, great cast, maybe a "sequel" on the way?

40 years of Battlestar Galactica - it may not have been on the air for long, but it had a lot of staying power otherwise
Also a bit of Glen A. Larson love - that guy created a ton of shows in the late '70s/early '80s
