Cold snowy day - weekly TV update

Well, it's white-out conditions outside at the moment. Honestly, I cannot make out most of the buildings out my window - all I see is a cloud of snow. Softly
falling now as opposed to shooting diagonally. The wind? Bitter. Went outside briefly to pick up assorted things and came back with my fingers and toes aching, and I wore layers.

So...to keep myself from baking brownies, because, honestly? I don't need the poundage (not that that will keep me from doing it in an hour), I'm writing up my thoughts on the entertainment pursuits I indulged in this week. (I think I've gained back those 25 pounds I lost while unemployed - due to the fact that my office keeps rolling out birthday cakes. In the past two weeks, I think I've had slices from a total of five birthday cakes. Ugh. Plus winter?
For some reason my body just craves food in the winter.)

Well not much good on this week TV wise. Best show, still seems to be BattleStar Galatica. Second week in a row, it delivered. All the actors are fantastic in their roles, not a weak one in the bunch. The characters are complex. They don't get along - there are inherent conflicts amongst them. And the problems they are faced with are realistic and multi-faceted. The only draw-back to the series may be that it is a serial - not episodic. You really can't miss an episode without getting lost. Personally I like that aspect, but I know a good portion of the audience will have problems with it. This was Farscape's dilemma as well. The reason Star-Gate does so well is it's like
JAG - episodic in nature. You can miss episodes and still follow it. Not true here.
