------------------------------------------------------------- I saw the BSG mini-series (they actually ran it on AFN-Korea) and thought the show had potential. AFN also ran Season 1, but only for a station that shows on military bases, so those of us living off-base can't get it. I was hoping one of the Korean Channels would pick it up, but they haven't yet. They do show the Stargates. So, I asked for and recieved the first two seasons of BSG DVDs; I have something to do for a while. I only seen the first 7 episodes of Farscape; I borrowed the DVD pack from a friend. I rather enjoyed it. So I went to Amazon to see if I could get the entire season and saw the prices. WOW! Do they think they are Star Trek? Even in the military exchange the price is $89.00. I still may save my allowance . . . I also recently watched Season 1 of Atlantis. I really liked it--a lot! What a cliffhanger. Too bad they couldn't have found a better foe than a reace of Lestat's. One cool thing is that not all humans are getting along. The planet with Colm Meany looks to be a thorn in the Atlantis side for sometime to come. Looking forward to season 2.
