I’ll admit it. I’ll be the first to admit it. I’m a Scifi addict. I’m also a tennis addict. A couple of years ago, I was asked to play on Friday nights in a tennis league. I declined. Not because I didn’t want to play, but it was on Friday nights. I watch the Scifi channel on Friday nights. My family knows, they may not understand, but they know not to bother me from 6pm until 10pm, CST.
I, like a lot of people, got hooked on the new Battlestar Galactica series two years ago. It’s great. Hot looking women, strong women and Cylons, human looking ones and the shiny metal ones. The writing is strong, the story lines creative and introspective. Even the original Starbuck, Richard Hatch, from the first Battlestar Galactica has a juicy character.
The new season begins October 6th, and I’ve got a contest going on my website in honor of this program. Details and entry requirements are posted at www.YasminePhoenix.com/contest.
Good Hunting!
Hi Yasmine –
I love this post. I just moved to NY to start a business with my dad, but prior to my move, Friday nights belonged to SciFi, my mom and I. I haven’t always watched Battlestar though. Boy do I regret that mistake. Luckily, my sister had season one on dvd! The 6th belongs to me, the tv and a big bowl of popcorn. 🙂

I am not ALONE!! Thank you, Lara and thank you for entering my contest. I’ll be right there in spirit with you, like Number 6 AND IT’S TWO HOURS!! And the Scifi network will probably run it again, so that means when I go to my Saturday tennis practice, I’m going to be blurry eyed but happy!
