With so many great Sci-Fi Channel shows to choose from it's a good thing we live in a world with DVRs. Sci-Fi produces high quality television entertainment all year long with their rotating series and thrilling, fantastical mini-series. Currently some old favorites that are beginning their latest seasons are Battlestar Galactica and Doctor Who. We're mid-season in Ghosthunters, a documentary of sorts on chasing those bumps in the night and debunking ghost stories. Sure to be a new favorite is The Sarah Jane Adventures where a former companion from Doctor Who continues his legacy here on Earth with her own sonic lipstick. Destination Truth is an adventure into discovery of the most bizarre things on the planet.

This rule was skewed a bit when the 9th Doctor picked up Rose Tyler. When she was forced to be left behind by the 10th Doctor it was apparent that their relationship had gone farther than it should have. This season promises to be an exciting one as Rose is going to find her way back to her Doctor.

Battlestar Galactica is a genius replication of the old 70s show with a few tweaks here and there to make it absolutely brilliant. Ok maybe more than a tweak - never in my life did I expect to see Starbuck make out with Apollo but that's when Starbuck wasn't a woman. They're still a ragtag fleet of a humans in search of Earth and they're still battling Cylons. But this time they may actually reach Earth and
