The Battlestar Galactica women are riders!

**Steam** · 25th March 2008, 09:18

I know this will appeal to only a few of you, but Tricia Helfer (#6), Katee Sackhoff (Starbuck), and Michael Trucco (Anders) all ride motorcycles!
Helfer has a Harley Sportster, Starbuck rides a Honda 750-something-cruiser, and Anders rides... who cares, he's a guy!

News story here

Season Four starts next week in the USA!

Yep, here she is. Hard drinking hottie who kicks arse, flies a fighter, and goes through men like jet-fuel.

And Boomer is a woman too.

But that sucked extremely, and was cancelled after just one season. Thank the lords of Kobol!

Nice! Looking forward to the next series. Hopefully they can play it at a reasonable hour, otherwise it will be DVD purchase from ebay time.

I got series three and Razor in Region 1 format from an online store in the UK, then when I'd finished with them I sold them on trademe for more than what I paid, including shipping all the way from the UK. Profit!
Crazy.

Not fair - Starbuck should be a man. What will happen to indy/Solo? Janice Bond?
No wonder were all getting soft. I'm all for equal opportunity - but we need male "action" role models, not some bloody brit VW driving pussy mod chef.
On the other side of the coin Jack Poppins sounds like a rapist.

Time to rewatch Season 3 to remind myself whats going on. Heck - I might start from the beginning again. I watched BSG Razor the other week and was suprised to find that I had forgotten a whole lot of stuff.

BSG

Ah well, I'm not as annoyed about that as the fact that Playhouse Disney has a new Winnie the Pooh series, with a bloody girl instead of Christopher Robin...surprisingly, she's still white, although making up in the PC stakes by being a ginger.
