SciFi Friday

In the last few years Fridays have pretty much been a dead zone on TV. It use to be the networks would have good shows on like The Rockford Files or The X-Files. Now aside from CBS having had the recently cancelled Joan of Arcadia, if you didn't have cable you were probably watching TGIF Friday's on ABC. I guess the networks figured their prime demographics have gone out so why not show something with the Olsen Twins in it. Luckly most of us have cable, so if you're home on Friday night you actually have some great programming to enjoy. I like watching the shows that come on SciFi. Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis are pretty good. I'm really enjoying Stargate SG-1 because Claudia Black and Ben Browder from Farscape have joined the cast. Claudia is just a recurring character so she probably won't be on as much once Amanda Tapping gets back from maternity leave. The stand out program is Battlestar Galactica. Now that's a show worth staying home for. They took the chessy 70's show and made it into an intriguing drama that just happens to take place in space and has robots (sexy robots at that). Sci-Fi is also showing Firefly the cancelled cult classic that was on Fox, (strangely it use to be on Friday nights). So thanks to SciFi, Friday nights are again a good night to watch some TV.
