    It's the reason my Wife and I are watching BSG now. Well, I'd already seen it, but this convinced her to watch it.

    I still haven't watched this. I've got all of season 1 on my DVR and am recording season 2... I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about it.

    A Lorne Michaels production doesn't imply anything.

    Yes it does. It implies "more guests than laughs" to put it in your own words.

    I'm liking this. I like their style, even when a sketch is a "miss" for me.

    And yes, now I have Battlestar Galactica S1 waiting

    Finished the 6 episodes not but a day or two ago. Really funny and weird. It's up on Netflix for those who haven't seen it.
