The sixth annual Emerald City ComiCon takes place this weekend, May 10th and 11th, at the Washington State Convention Center in the fair city of Seattle.  Among of the special media guests who will be in attendance are Jamie Bamber, who plays Major Lee "Apollo" Adama on Battlestar Galactica and Julie Benz, who plays Rita Bennett on Dexter and who played Darla on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel.

BuddyTV will be attending the Emerald City ComiCon and interviewing Jamie Bamber and Julie Benz, as well as giving away free goodies for all convention attendees at the BuddyTV booth.Read More

Battlestar Galactica is still well into its final season, but before fans start mourning the loss, there's more news on the Ronald D. Moore spin-off Caprica. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Paula Malcomson and Esai Morales have been cast as two of the leads in the new series.

Malcomson, best known as the prostitute Trixie on HBO's Deadwood, will play the role of Amanda Grayston, a brilliant scientist, which Morales, most recently seen as Major Beck on Jericho, will play Joseph Adama, Bill's father.  In Caprica, Amanda and her husband pioneer the creation of the Cylons. In the pilot, their daughter Zoe is killed, but her DNA and consciousness live on as she is the prototype for the next step of humanity, the Cylon equivalent to Eve.Read More

Previously on Battlestar Galactica, Starbuck faced mutiny on board the Demetrius when she expressed her intent in cooperating with the Cylon Leoben, who has boarded the ship to help her find Earth.

The quest to find Earth continues in the episode “Faith,” which airs on Friday, May 9 at 10/9c.

Warning: May contain spoilers. Read More

Last week's episode of Battlestar Galactica could have been dubbed "The Crazy Cylon Hour."  Just when you thought Tory couldn't get any nuttier, she went on a rant about how Cylons are perfect and don't need to bother with things like guilt or sadness.  Colonel Tigh was willing to get his eye socket pummeled in an attempt to get answers from Six, and Tyrol made such a scene over Cally's death that Adama had to demote him.  On the human side of things, Baltar became a full fledged messiah despite Roslin's (Mary McDonnell) attempt to break up his cult.

On tonight's episode, we revisit the Demetrius and watch as tensions rise between Kara and her crew.Read More

If you're a fan of Battlestar Galactica and CSI:, prepare to be disappointed.  Really, super-duper disappointed.  TV Guide's Michael Ausiello is reporting that Katee Sackhoff (who plays Starbuck on Battlestar Galactica, but you already knew that) was tantalizingly close to joining the cast of CSI as Jorja Fox's kinda, sorta replacement.  The new character, named Bryce Adams, was set to be a series regular.  Executive producers and show runners were all jacked up and ready to welcome Sackhoff to the CSI family.  They basically thought it was a done deal, according to Ausiello.  However, at the last minute, executives from CBS and Jerry Bruckheimer's production company got cold feet.  They didn't feel Katee was right for the role, apparently, and now the search for Bryce Adams has been re-opened.Read More

Ambition. It's both the greatest strength and the greatest weakness of Battlestar Galactica. Ronald D. Moore and David Eick aren't just telling a sci-fi space story, they're addressing issues of society, philosophy, politics, religion, and everything else you can think of. As broad in its scope as HBO's The Wire, Battlestar Galactica has a lot going on.

That's not necessarily a good thing. Four episodes into season 4, the show has already splintered into no less than six major subplots: Laura Roslin's slow death, Lee Adama's newfound political life, Tigh, Tyrol and Tory coping with being Cylons, Baltar's spiritual awakening, the Demetrius crew's search for Earth and, oh yeah, there's a Cylon Civil War going on. Even for this show, that's a lot of stuff.Read More

Religion has always been an important underlying theme within the universe of Battlestar Galactica.  The monotheistic beliefs of the Cylons have clashed with the polytheistic views of the humans since the very first episode of the series.  Though religion has always played a big role in the lives of the characters, their beliefs have often taken a back seat to the sci-fi storytelling.  The story arcs involving Laura Roslin (Mary McDonnell) and Number Six address the topic more overtly, but outside of those two characters, the series has mostly kept religion in the background.

All of that has changed now that the show is in its fourth and final season.  Number Six is now intent on spreading the word of the One True God throughout the Galactica, and she's using Gaius Baltar to do it.  Is the show making a mistake by moving the religious subtext to the forefront?Read More

Last week on Battlestar Galactica, Starbuck drove her crew nuts with her aimless search for Earth, but she at least got a good frakking during the journey.  Lee (Jamie Bamber) took some advice from Tom Zarek (Richard Hatch) and decided to stand up to Roslin, which may not work out as well as he hoped.  In the most shocking moment of the episode, Tory sent Cally straight out the airlock after she discovered the secret of the Galactica Cylons.

On tonight's installment, "Escape Velocity," Chief Tyrol reacts strangely to Cally's death, and Baltar discovers that not everyone wants him to become a messianic cult leader.Read More

Each new episode of Battlestar Galactica this season has completely blown me away.  The stakes are getting raised each week, and though the characters are currently separated and pursuing their own agendas, I'm excited to see them eventually come together.  On last week's episode, Cally discovered the secret of the Galactica toasters and paid dearly for her knowledge.  In tomorrow night's installment, "Escape Velocity," we'll see the aftermath of that event, and also revisit Baltar's (James Callis) messianic cult.

To get fans ready for the new hour of Battlestar Galactica, we have some promo photos, a trailer, and a clip from the episode.Read More

Everyone has a different idea of who the final Cylon will be as we enter into the last season of Battlestar Galactica.  Eleven have been revealed, one still remains, and all we know is that it could be absolutely anybody.  I've seen many suggestions thrown around by devoted BSG fans, and each time a new character is mentioned as a possibility, I find myself thinking it's completely plausible.  It could be a character we've known for years, one we haven't even met, or someone no one would ever expect.  We have no idea when the 12th Cylon will be revealed, but we know that we're in for a shock before Battlestar Galactica leaves the airwaves.

Based on nothing but pure speculation, I've put together a list of characters who have the highest chance of being the final toaster.Read More

Previously on Battlestar Galactica:  Starbuck was unable to convince Roslin that she knows the way to Earth, but Adama trusted her enough to give her a ship and send her on her way.  Meanwhile, Baltar saw another Baltar and ended up sleeping with Tory, who was supposed to be on a mission to find out about the final Cylon.  On the Basestar, Number Six (Tricia Helfer) handed some Cylon Centurions the gift of reason to get back at Cavil for lobotomizing the Raiders.

On tonight's episode, Cally finds out about Chief Tyrol's secret, while Brother Cavil wakes up feeling gooey and extremely ticked off.Read More

At the end of last week's episode of Battlestar Galactica, Admiral Adama handed Starbuck the keys to a ship and told her to go find Earth.  It was a sweet moment in an otherwise intense episode, and it left us wondering if Kara Thrace (Katee Sackhoff) will make it to our planet, or if she's actually leading a small group of people to their doom.  In tomorrow night's episode, "The Ties that Bind," we'll see more of Kara's journey, and we'll also get a glimpse at Chief Tyrol's struggles to accept his Cylon nature.

To get fans pumped for Friday's new episode, we have some promo photos and an exciting trailer that shows us what to expect from "The Ties that Bind."Read More

While season 4 of Battlestar Galactica is just getting started for viewers, it's nearly completely wrapped up behind-the-scenes.  There will probably be a lot of news in the coming months about the cast and crew taking on new projects.  One person who won't be leaving the sci-fi genre anytime soon is BSG mastermind and executive producer Ronald D. Moore.  Not only is he putting together the Caprica prequel movie for the Sci Fi Channel, but he's also signed on to write the pilot for the new FOX series Virtuality.  The pilot, about the 12 crew members on Earth's first starship, will be co-written by another Battlestar Galactica vet, Michael Taylor.Read More

The first half of the final season of Battlestar Galactica is underway, and it's promising to answer all the questions fans have.  Will the crew reach Earth?  Who is the final Cylon?  The first 10 episodes of Battlestar Galactica season 4 will air from now through the middle of June, and as of now, it's still unknown when the final 10 episodes will air.

This article contains spoilers for the remainder of season 4 of Battlestar Galactica.  It goes without saying that reading these spoilers may severely inhibit your ability to fully enjoy and appreciate these final episodes, so before reading, be sure this is what you want.

WARNING: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA SEASON 4 SPOILERS AHEADRead More

Last week on Battlestar Galactica, Baltar was whisked away by a cult of ladies who seem to worship him as a messiah.  Meanwhile, Starbuck returned from being presumed dead for two months, but was under the impression that she was only gone for six hours.  Though Kara has no clue what happened to her, she's convinced that she knows the way to Earth.  She's even willing to hold President Roslin at gunpoint to prove it.

Tonight's episode, "Six of One," shows us why pointing a gun at the head of the president is an extremely bad idea.Read More

Battlestar Galactica's Grace Park is no stranger to Sci-Fi, her resume includes stints on The Immortal, Stargate SG1, Jake 2.0, Andromeda, Outer Limits, and, surprisingly, more. She is probably best known for her role as the Cylons Boomer, Athena, Sharon ad infinitum. BuddyTV was extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to sit down with Grace to discuss Battlestar Galactica's past, present, and future as well as the intricacies of playing a character with the most extreme multiple personality disorder on TV today.

Margaret Weis Productions has reached an agreement with Universal Studios Consumer Products Group to produce roleplaying game products based on the enormously successful, critically-acclaimed television series, Battlestar Galactica.

"When we established our company we made the commitment to produce character- and story-focused role playing games using the best source material we could find," says Margaret Weis, New York Times best-selling author and game publisher. "Battlestar Galactica is the kind of science fiction that we do best, where the drama and characters are more important than the guns and the gadgets. The very survival of the human race is at stake in the series and exploring the story possibilities in the setting can make for some very exciting games."

Battlestar Galactica is the Emmy-nominated television series brought to the small screen by Executive Producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick. In the United States, the program can be seen weekly on the Sci-Fi Channel. This hit show captivates its audience as an aged battleship leads a ragtag civilian fleet away from a terrifying enemy - the Cylons - and toward hope on a mythical world called Earth.

Like the show, the role playing game book is set in space and will focus on the challenges of survival in exceedingly trying times - and the difficult choices that must be made. The core product, the Battlestar Galactica Role Playing Game, is a self-contained game product using the same game system as the best-selling and award-winning Serenity Role Playing Game (also produced by Margaret Weis Productions). The game book will be a full-color hardcover book featuring still images from

the series as well as original artwork. It will provide rules for play, character creation, and information about the ship and crew of Galactica as well as the other main characters from the show. A Quickstart Guide will be released in early 2007 with the core product premiering in the spring. Additional products will closely follow the release of the core product. The entire line will be supported by an interactive website.

My favorite LOST writer, Javier Grillo-Marxuach, has now written a comic book miniseries called Battlestar Galactica - Cylon Apocalypse . Dynamite Entertainment is releasing the first of the four part comic book miniseries in February of 2007. The series is based on the original Battlestar Galactica TV series and begins with the bizzare scene of Cylon Raiders attacking one of their own Basestars. Something even stranger happens next and the Cylon Apocalypse begins! Javi keeps his fans updated through his blog at http://chaodai.livejournal.com/. He also has a website called Radio Free Javi which links to a very funny series of videos called Ask Javi! where he answers questions from his fans. Javier Grillo-Marxuach also writes for the TV show: Medium and is responsible for the new comic book series called The Middleman.

David Eick, the executive producer of 'Battlestar Galactica,' is teaming up with director Jonathan Mostow and writer John McNamara to develop a new sci-fi show currently titled 'Them'. The sci-fi invasion show is slated for the Fox Network.

Accoring to SciFiWire, the project is based on the graphic novel 'Six.' Eick and McNamara are writing the script, which involves extraterrestrial terrorists who take human form. The twist is that human emotions act as a kind of drug for the aliens. Mostow is quoted as saying, "On a surface level, it's a really cool science fiction thriller. But underneath, it's a very provocative show that's really going to explore what it means to be human, to be a person."

No word on how, or if, Eick's alignment with FOX will impact BattleStar Galactica Production.

Katee Sackhoff, who plays StarBuck on the new Battlestar Galactica will be scene on the big screen sequel to White Noise which will be released, theatrically, in January.

Sackhoff told SCIFIwire that she jumped ant the opportunity to play a character as far removed from her day job as ace fighter pilot Starbuck. In the film, Sackhoff plays a nurse named Sherry, whose life is saved by a man (Serenity's Nathan Fillion), who, having cheated death himself after his family is murdered, helps those about to die.

Sackhoff claims that the sequel is "a great story. It's all about death's design and when it's your time to go and what you have to do rectify the situation when you get saved. It's very interesting. I haven't seen it yet, but I've heard great things about it, and I'm just really, really excited to see it."
