19 Musical Moments To Die For
On Medialoper: 19 Musical Moments To Die For
This month, in honor of St. Valentine’s day, it’s a special theme version of Musical Moments To Die For.
Love songs! Nothing but love songs!
Well, that’s not exactly right: not so much love songs, but songs about love, which is a totally different head. Totally.

Battlestar Galactica Recap: Blood on the Scales
On Screen Junkies. Battlestar Galactica Recap: Blood on the Scales
Richard Hatch was pissed. He always loved playing Captain Apollo on the original Battlestar Galactica, and very much wanted to the sequel that he envisioned back onto TV screens. But instead, Ron Moore's "reimagined" Battlestar came out instead, and Hatch was critical of the entire enterprise. He came around, eventually, and was offered the role of Tom Zarek, Freedom Fighter. But I don't think that he's ever fully let his anger go, and, in fact, that anger has informed how he played Tom Zarek, who -- except for a short bit on New Caprica -- was never not kind of an asshole.

Battlestar Galactica Recap: The Oath
On Screen Junkies - Battlestar Galactica Recap: The Oath
Former Speaker of the House Tip O'Neil once famously said, "all politics is local," but I don't think he got specific enough, because, really, all politics is personal. And sometimes people in power don't care if they turn the entire world upside down in order to get atonement, or revenge, or maybe just an apology.
Sometimes, lots and lots of people die as a result.

Battlestar Galactica Recap: A Disquiet Follows My Soul
On Screen Junkies - Battlestar Galactica Recap: A Disquiet Follows My Soul
If last week's episode was all about giving up, then this is about starting over. Which makes sense, as this episode was really all about setting up the endgame of the entire series.
