So, I'm going to launch right into things and say "Oh my gods. "Battlestar Galactica" is frakking awesome." I'm going gay for Katee Sackhoff, effective immediately. As you may or may not know, I recently jumped (no pun intended) head-first into the "BSG" 'verse (thank you, Aly), and I am a complete Starbuck & Apollo shipper. Earlier this morning, I finally got to sit down and watch the next instalment of the fourth series, "Six of One", and I don't think anything massive really happened other than a Roslin/Adama spat, Gaius slept with the President's assistant (who is a Cylon, btw), Dee and Lee said goodbye, a Six turned on the rest of the Cylons and Lee and Kara had possibly the sweetest reunion ever.

Also, I started and finished watching "Gossip Girl" this weekend, and I think I'm hooked. It's one of those shows that are filled with drama and cool clothes, but heart and relationships worth investing in. It makes a nice break from other sanity-taxing shows like "Lost" and "BSG", and some reveals or twists you see coming from a mile away. But it's done nicely. Twelve episodes in one season feels like several seasons, with all the angsty goodness.

In other news, videos and pictures from the "Twilight" set have me all a flutter. I admit, I was skeptical at first, but now I'm 100% behind R-Pattz as the wonderfully unavailable, fictional character, Edward Cullen. I've seen pictures submitted by fans, and a few promotional photos, but seeing videos is that much better, videos of actual footage is even better than that! Mark these dates on your calendar:

Release of "Breaking Dawn" (fourth in the "Twilight Saga"): August 2, 08
Release of "Twilight" (movie): December 12, 08.

Are you counting down? I know I am.
