By the Great Parrot of Hades! But how does cephalopod intelligence compare?

Well there's another piece in the puzzle of "Why BSG failed", though its one I mostly suspected already: Ron thought of BSG as his answer to Treks failure in its later years, to the point that I think he didn't realize that a cable TV show doesn't have the time, budget, or simply staff size to deal with a project and…

The fate of humanity rests in the hands of this drunk?

Omar's a-comin'!

But Noxon wrote Buffy Season 6, infamously their worst season!'

India beat them to it.
