suuuuuure....show off the Sci-Fi HD!
(as he ponders the 18 month commitment that is 2 months old for the 722...sigh)
I have all of these episodes archived on a External HDD from the 622 as well as the Mini Series...
Btw... Razor was what made me upgrade my Directv side actually glad I did... did my own slimline install as well as the HR20...

Actually it could look better, think its upconverted but its still better than SD. As for the show, WOW!!!! Talk about tying things together. Still a few minutes left but I figure its a wrap up.
I was slightly disappointed as Last nights BSG's from Season 3 looked better Imho... I watched this 2 or 3 weeks ago from a screener... but still enjoyed as this had surround...
So, will UHD show Razor as a repeat, y'think? Bummed we didn't get ScifiHD on E* in time for the big show.
Have to ask the group o' fans here--while I liked Razor, I wasn't "blown away" in the end. It had some great moments, but I felt like it had been over-trimmed for the TV airing. I'd read up on all the retro/flashback battles between Adama and the old-style Cylons and such and was prepared for a lot more of these epic/nostalgic sequences...only to find they've been withheld for the 'Expanded Edition'. I thought it was a let-down and a pretty apparent trick on their part (studio/network) to make you rush out and buy DVDs...I hate getting played like that. I think that they're going to split the final season into two mini-seasons to milk/promote DVD sales, too. Smart, maybe, but annoying.

Don't know... SciFi showed BSG's starting with Exodus in HD Friday and Saturday nite, guide shows the rest of them the morning of the 7th... looks like for now UHD is out of the loop...
They may have to split it into 2 seasons anyway now. They are on hold and out of scripts with the writers strike. I think they had only filmed 7 or 8 episodes before production halted.
'Battlestar Galactica' Ratings Adrift
Last Saturday’s much-anticipated “Battlestar Galactica” two-hour movie “Razor” had an unspectacular debut. The stand-alone entry in Sci Fi Channel’s Peabody-winning series garnered a 0.8 rating among adults 18 to 49 and was seen by 1.7 million viewers.
That’s almost exactly what the entire third “Battlestar” season averaged, but well below its season premiere last fall.
Tricky to tea-leaf what exactly this might mean for the upcoming fourth (and final) season, since “Razor” wasn’t a continuation of last season’s cliffhanger. Also, Sci Fi aired “Razor” on Thanksgiving weekend, which couldn’t have helped.
For those who missed the airing, the “Razor” DVD will be released Dec. 4.

I guess they had a theory "if we delay the next season long enough nobody will care" and decided to prove it.
Watching the extended cut of Razor from the Dvd... I hope they show this version in HD or offer it in HD DVD soon... it is 1:43 long compared to 1:27 on the broadcast version...
I missed it because without SG1 or BSG, I don't watch SciFi.
As much as I was anticipating it, it slipped my mind. Will pick up the DVD later in the week, but it has been so long and I know now even longer until the episodes start up again that I really just don't care anymore.
I call this the 'Jericho effect'. NBC killed that show with it's hiatus. This long wait for BSG has tested me as a fan and I've failed.

Ok If any of you watched Razor by now..... Were any of you disappointed in it? We found it lacking... just not enough to it.
I loved it myself... watched the HD version and then bought the Dvd and enjoyed the fleshed out version...
