Moaning, Battlestar Galactica and Christmas cards (again)

Urgh. I still feel like utter shit and I'm beginning to suspect that I'm allergic to the cats as well as having a cold. Having a cat allergy could be quite irritating. I've hardly touched the sweet, sweet internet since I came back last Monday so I've probably missed quite a bit on my flist. I've been mostly sleeping.

Actually, I have been downloading the first few Battlestar Galactica episodes. Question for you Battlestar Galactica watching folks, do you need to have seen the film/minseries thingy for the TV show to make sense? Should I try and watch that first?

Oh, and while I'm at it, if you still want a Christmas card and you haven't commented here, then go and comment as I've actually started writing a few out. I want to be all Yay! Christmas! but I'm more like Yay. Bed. at the moment.

Oh screw you Semagic. Why won't you post?!

The mini-series helps. A lot. There are elements in the mini that aren't present in the original series, and that aren't really explained too thoroughly in the first episodes. Particularly the presence of Number Six.

You can probably manage wouthout seeing it, but I'd recommend borrowing a copy from someone. Don't you live quite close to me? I have the mini on DVD.

I thought that it might be pretty integral viewing and I hate watching stuff out of order.

I live in Nottingham which isn't really too close to Barnsley - at least not in the sense of, I'll just pop round and borrow this shiny, shiny DVD.
