The Sci-fi Channel Musings

I got roped into watching the Sci-fi channel last night...

Battlestar Galactica has not improved. Somebody please tell me what the FUCK is up with the word 'frack?' I thought I was going to piss my pants I was laughing so hard. Who writes the fucking dialogue for this show? And OMG -- Michelle Forbes? I loved her when she was Ensign Ro Laren on ST:NG, and now this? Ugh :P

I've always liked Stargate. If I wasn't so involved in Lost, I may actually have given SG:A a go. Not to write fic or anything. Just to watch. But to you SG:A fans -- can any of you rec me any NC-17 Wraith fics?

--P

Frack actually comes from the original BSG :p I guess they decided to stay true to the universe created back then.

Coming from someone that used to watch the show religiously, I don't ever recall Hatch or Benedict using the word 'frack.'

They did. Benedict, all the time.

So let me see if I have this right. They fucking changed Starbuck's sex. And they left in the word 'frack?'

I think I hate this show even more now :P

The big reason I have no interest in seeing this version :)

Seriously? Interesting. I've only seen a couple episodes...I was just told this by a friend and it seemed all the fanfiction I read about the original show used that word. Odd.

It could be like that Sherlock Holmes phrase "elementary, my dear Watson"...something a lot of people believe is canon but really isn't?

It just sounds so goddamn stupid.
