dwight was right

Anybody who watches the nation’s best comedy, The Office, knows about Dwight Schrute’s obsession with Battlestar Galactica, the SciFi channel reboot of the disastorous 1970s television series and film. I’ve been watching this show on and off since it first aired as a miniseries a couple years ago and I’ve thought it was an excellent show. I am willing to pit this show against any bullshit Big-3 network drama out there because it’s smart, well acted and pretty engrossing. Starbuck is a chick in this version, and it’s got Edward James Olmos in it. Say what you will about the other shitty original series offerings from SciFi (Stargate SG1, Stargate Atlantis, Stargate Athens, New York, Chronos, etc., etc….), but this one is worth a watch. It also looks like it’s catching on in the world of TV critics:

Also, a new Jay-Z single has leaked from his new “comeback album,” Kingdom Come. It’s sounding very promising.
