Have we heard any music or popular culture on BSG, aside from knowing that they have news/talk shows similar to our own?
I'm pretty sure we haven't.
Adama gave a book to Roslyn once. That's all I can think of.
I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think that you might be.
Buffy ,'Dirty Girls'
Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There's big band-ish music (I think it's a live band, but it might be a recording) at the party in "Colonial Day." And yeah, Roslin and Adama talked about some popular mystery novels in one of the first few episodes.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
To me the context of the article, and the fact that it's an arts-section type of piece, signal that it's not going to be hard journalism. I don't usually read the Times, so I may have a poor idea what they normally run in the magazine.
The features in the magazine are usually pretty good, at least compared to their arts/style coverage in the rest of the paper.

Heh.
Of course, it'd probably help if I had seen The Lion King.

There was that original series ep where they landed on the disco planet. That almost counts.

Hell, there needs to be a BSG opera....
Nutty, "Robinette"'s car in G vs E was an orange Volvo -- in fact, "Orange Volvo" was like the second episode where he related how he thought it gave him an advantage because the bad guys never suspected that such a cool guy would drive such a nerdly car.

If I only had a brain...
This is me being Cranky McBitchypants.
It is 2005. It is NO LONGER FUNNY for a woman to insult a man by calling him a lady. In particular, "Ladies first" -- motions at guy -- is not funny. Even as performed by Claudia Black.
In other news, how many feminists does it take to screw in a lightbulb: THAT'S NOT FUNNY!

Really? It's such a military thing to do, I don't even think of it as humor.
