KharBevNor:
Is Survivorman what they call Bear Gryll's show in America?
valley_parade:
No, I think that one's "Man Vs. Wild" or something.

I love Battlestar Galactica, but all the same it would be so much better if it just lived up to its promise. Like, the first few episodes of season 3 were incredible, touching on all sorts of really interesting issues about war-time morality that are incredibly relevant to this day and age and doing it in a way that's unbelievably subversive for what seems to be a relatively high-profile American show, but then they go and waste a whole lot of episodes piss-farting around some hokey love story that nobody really gives a shit about. And then they get over that and have a really, really interesting episode like the one about the labour dispute, and the role of unionism and class in shaping society, and they address all sorts of really interesting issues, and you just want them to talk about it just a little bit more, but they can't because they've run out of time.
Basically I think the series would be immeasurably better if it went for a full hour instead of 45 minutes (which would require it to be on a commercial-free channel) and if each series was only twelve or thirteen episodes long, instead of twenty-something.
So I guess I'm saying it'd be better if it was on H.B.O.
Uber Ritter:
RE better if it was 13 episodes long,
Why do you think Season 1 was the best? I don't think it had a bad episode. The high points of season 2 are a match for some of the best moments in season 1, but the troughs between are FAR more pronounced. I suspect this is because the season was shorter, and so had less filler.
I haven't seen season 3 yet--my first DVD just got here today via the netflix.

I can't wait, Razor was pretty epic.
