I usually watch it whilst doing the ironing but last night there wasn't enough to make it worthwhile. I sat down just intending to sit and watch the whole thing and enjoy the experience. Within a couple of minutes the youngest one was waking up coughing, spluttering and crying. Bang went my evening. The wife wasn't going to appreciate me sat downstairs for nye on 3 hours absorbed in a galaxy far far away (so to speak) whilst she comforted our second born.
You can't but answer the call when it comes to your child, hope he/she's doing well.

I'm still not entirely sure if it's all been a bit to high-brow for me, unbelievable as it seems. There's clearly been a lot that's been clever about it but to be honest I'd have liked a few more centurions being blasted. I think I preferred Space Above and Beyond but I should imagine that looks incredibly dated by today's standards. Anyway I stuck with Galactica and I'm glad, hopefully I can say the same when Lost thankfully comes to an end. Meanwhile I may have given up all hope on Heroes...
What struck me with BSG is how the writers used scifi to discuss many real matters, politics, religion, ethics...etc a bit like Star Trek but without using two many races to get the message across.
As for Lost, i remember seing the first episode when i was in Canada but i wasn't hooked and all the hype about it didn't help.
I agree about heroes, seems like the writers don't have a clue where they're going with the story.
