This might go down as one of the coolest television-related sites ever (besides TV Squad, of course). Sci Fi has launched a Battlestar Galactica Videomaker Toolkit where you can make your own videos. And they cut no corners doing it. You can access a handful of scenes, sound effects and music clips from BSG-- and create your own storyline by editing those scenes with scenes you've shot yourself (you've always wanted to fly a Raptor, haven't you?). The finished videos can be up to four minutes long and, according to the website, executive producer David David Eick will choose the best one and play it during an episode of BSG.All the video scenes are either on land or in space and they don't show any of the characters. Too bad, really. I'd like to edit myself into the boxing episode and kick Lee Adama's ass!

Despite the fact it went off the air a full eight years before I was
born, I count the original Batman series starring Adam West and Burt Ward as one of my favorites. When I was
in junior high there was a cable channel called The Family Channel which would air back-to-back episodes of
Batman late at night. My dad would let me stay up on school nights and watch them, and since the episodes
were shown together there was no waiting till next week to see how the cliffhanger played out. The show is fun to
watch as a kid, but as an adult it's easier to catch all the subtle jokes and innuendo. Those who have watched the
series after reaching adulthood realize it was actually much smarter and funnier than it seemed on the surface.
