• The SciFi Channel has finally, finally, greenlit the Battlestar Galactica prequel, Caprica, envisioning it as BSG set in the '50s without spaceships. I predict the first space battle will occur before the Season 1 is out.

• It's the 30th anniversary of the Star Wars Christmas Special. Thanks for giving us Wookiee Life Day, George!
