"Battlestar" requests the pleasure of your presence
When a show holds an event as part of a push for Emmy nominations, they usually don’t let plebes from the general population get involved. But that's not the way "Battlestar Galactica" rolls. The Sci Fi Channel, ingeniously figuring if Emmy voters saw how rabid yet serious “Battlestar Galactica’s” fans were about the show, they might be more inclined to consider the show for Emmys on its merits, rather than dismiss it outright due to its genre. (On the other hand, should people come dressed as their favorite characters, Emmy voters would likely flee in terror.)
Hence, the “Battlestar Galactica” All-Access Event, 8 p.m. Wednesday at the Cinerama Dome on Sunset. Follow the link and it’ll tell you how you might be able to squeeze yourself into the event, where cast members and creators will discuss the show and offer a sneak peek at its upcoming (and final) season. Given how dedicated fans are, the screening’s likely already closed, but good luck with it anyway.
David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place.
