Alessandro Juliani featured at IGN

Gaeta has my vote for the 5th... or perhaps the new prez, as long as he can stop singing his song. Where was he in episode 408 anyway? Ah well, at least we can get a little fix with an interview with Alessandro over at IGN.

Bear talk at Variety

The fabulous Bear McCreary, composer to the new Battlestar Galactica series, is highlighted over at Variety.com. Click here to read.

"This show needed to set itself apart from all other science-fiction operas, especially the old version of the show," he says. "So traditional orchestral writing was out. The other idea was that there are all these hints that our histories are somehow connected, that we are related. So I wanted to use very ancient, earthly sounds."

Rekha Sharma interview at Buddy TV

Check out the nice little chat with Rekha Sharma over at Buddy TV. Don't worry - there are no spoilers (unless you haven't been watching up to the current 4th season).

Excerpt:

Are there any hints that you can give us about what's coming up on the show as we move into the midseason hiatus?

Any hints, well . . .

Who the fifth Cylon is, maybe?

[Laughs] Oh yes sir, no problem! You've got to be kidding me [laughs]. I like my job and I want to keep it, even though I only have a little bit left. To give any hints would just ruin it for you, really. It's so exciting. I can tell you this much, I can tell you that it's intense, that there's going to be lots of surprises. It's going to be everything that it has been so far: intense, dark, wonderful, exciting.
