"Battlestar Galactica: Razor" Delivers Old-School Awesome
The entire fall season of SciFi Channel's acclaimed humans vs. cylons show Battlestar Galactica was contained in a two-hour "television event" called Razor. In a smart move, show creator Ron Moore takes this episode back to an intriguing era during season two of the show when Galactica discovered Battlestar Pegasus, commanded by tough-as-shit Admiral Cain. Razor gives us rich, fascinating backstory on Pegasus and its fascistic commander, while also offering a peek at the mysterious beginnings of Cylon experiments with human-Cylon hybrid beings. Along the way we get terrific space fights, girl-on-Cylon action, and a reminder that Battlestar Galactica is still one of the best shows on television. More »
