Still no BSG: The Plan? I know it’s got to be about as exciting to you all as open-heart surgery without anesthetic, and it’s wholly unessential to the series, but I miss the old days where PSFR episodes contained a solid ten minutes of bashing how bad BSG became. I always found it more entertaining than the actual late-era BSG episodes were. I suppose there will be more when Caprica starts up, but I’d love to hear some commentary on this, for old time’s sake.
