Perhaps explaining to you my position will help cheer you up: I'm
*glad* that Battlestar Galactica won't air until 2008--because it
means that I no longer have any excuse to watch TV!  I won't have any
reason to run /usr/bin/tvtime for the next 9 months (3/4 of a year!).
In fact, I could even take the tuner card out of the machine if I
didn't need it for the MythTV installfest I'm going to this Saturday.
;)

I think of all the creative things I could do with this time, and it
just makes me giddy!

IMO, Battlestar Galactica was the ONLY thing on worth watching.  Most
TV programming, I think, is rather mindless (read: just a drug).
Battlestar, I believe, falls more into the category of "literature".
It's plot, characters, and themes are so well-woven I don't ever want
another episode to air. :)
