Some people are surprised that Howard Stern has become obsessed with Battlestar Galactica.
I'm not.
Howard followed the same path that countless others, including myself, have trudged down as we became BSG fanatics.
1. Denial
Someone whose taste in television you implicitly trust will tell you how great Battlestar Galactica is. Galactica? With Lorne Greene and the Cylons? And Starbuck is a girl now? Come on. I'm a geek, but not that geeky. You wonder how anyone would waste their time on this Sci-Fi series.
2. Acclaim
At the end of each season, everyone's Top 10 list seems to include BSG. Can all the critics, and my trustworthy friend be wrong? Hmmmm....
3. Fate
Somehow, some way, the Season One DVD box set makes its way into your hands (I was fortunate to get a review copy). You put your early prejudice aside and give the series a whirl.
4. Obsession
From the opening meeting of Number Six and a soon-to-be-terminated human, BSG never lets up. It's smart. It's sexy. It's incredibly shot. It's all you can watch until Season One comes to its surprising conclusion.
5. Thirst
Season Two is available on DVD to satisfy your BSG hunger. The series is currently in the middle of Season Three on the Sci Fi Channel, and it continues to hold up well.
6. Acceptance
Now you're the one touting Battlestar Galactica and getting the weird looks from non-believers. But they'll come around. Just like you did. You'll see.
See you on New Caprica.
