FYI, Ricky Gervais is doing occasional podcasts, which are free on iTunes, for the upcoming Ricky Gervais Show. I've only watched a few but there's a funny one about how much Karl hates Ricky's cat. There's a new one from 9/1.

Speaking of podcasts...

Tonight is the first of the ten mini episodes of Battlestar Galactica on Scifi.com:

Beginning tonight the television series “Battlestar Galactica” will travel from outer space into cyberspace. The Sci Fi Channel, which broadcasts the series, has created online mini-episodes, the first of which is scheduled to be posted at midnight.

The 10 Web segments, each just a few minutes long and viewable on devices ranging from iPods to laptops to desktops to full-size television sets, feature characters from the television show. And they have the same dark feel of broadcast episodes of “Galactica,” a post-apocalyptic survival tale of humans on the run after their home planets have been destroyed.

The mini-episodes will go online, one at a time, on Tuesday and Thursday nights until “Galactica’s” season premiere on Oct. 6. They focus on two soldiers in a new city built by humans fleeing Cylons, a race of machines that has wiped out human civilization elsewhere.

The two face difficult choices about how — or whether — to fight back against a new Cylon invasion, the climactic moment of last season.
Their decisions will help explain their actions in future on-air episodes.

BSG is one of the best television shows I've ever seen. If you haven't caught up with Season 2 (damn SciFi for breaking up the DVDs, 2.5 isn't available until September 19. I have them all on my Tivo, though, if anyone wants to come over and catch up.), you only have a little over a month to do it.
