Battlestar Galactica

Tim can you give us a map of the Colonies intervening in World War II and clashign with Rommel?

The favored crossover on the net seems to be Stargate.

In that case write up a crossover with GI Joe.

That doesn't even make sense.

Are you implying that there are crossover alt(fan)-fictions that do make sense?

Planetary / Batman wasn't bad...

That had metafictional aspects.  Metafictional crossovers tend to do reasonably well, e.g. Dave Sim's Spawn story where every superhero/villain ever was trapped in Erebus.

I know I'm going to lose nerd cred when I say I never watched the reboot BSG (did watch the 70s original).

Found the series on Amazon Prime.  Watching the original mini-series, finding it very good.  Of course I know there was a lot of negativity towards BSG towards the end, and of course the 70s original started out strong and rapidly petered out also.

Is this show worth investing some time in?

Err, no, liking old tv shows and either panning or ignoring popular reboots GIVES nerd cred.

That reminds me, I'm still about half way into season 2 and haven't continued yet.

I took several attempts at getting into the show, and it only "clicked" a few years ago.

I'd say the first 3 seasons are pretty good, even great in parts. Then it became Lost avant-la-lettre.

And the boardgame is fucking awesome.

Agreed on all of this

The strategy game is quite good, too. At least it was, before all the DLC hit which I haven't tried yet.

Yes.
Will be curious to hear how the jumps between series feel when you're watching them one after the other

Yes, but as said by the others it starts to decline by season three, and the ending is a total lazy cop-out. Still enjoyable though.

Is this show worth investing some time in?

Yes, despite a slowdown in the later half of season 3.  Season 4 wasn't half bad, but the ending was a bit disapointing, I guess.
