So Say We All: Yeah, another blog carnival

March

Over the past several weeks, the Blackjack Fairgrounds Jericho Blog Carnival has grown bigger and bigger. I’ve enjoyed reading all the thoughts folks in the blogosphere have on Jericho each week, including the recaps by Len Neighbors over at the Athens Exchange.

So last night, Len sent me a perfectly innocent e-mail, asking, “Do you plan on setting up a carnival for Galactica? If so, I’d like to be involved.”

Well, I hadn’t thought about it, to be honest, but Battlestar Galactica’s coming up fast — the fourth (and final, sniff!) season premiere is April 4. And Jericho’s quickly coming to an end (hopefully just for the season, but I sure wish CBS would just hurry up and just tell us one way or the other already!), giving me a little time to work on another carnival.

Thus, I have created So Say We All, The Battlestar Galactica Blog Carnival.

Yeah, just because I’m that much of a geek.

Anyhow, stay tuned; the first one will post April 8, four days after the premiere. Use the link in the graphic above to submit an article or just click here.

Meanwhile, here’s some more Battlestar goodness to come out of the upfronts today.

Don’t expect to see any Battlestar Galactica on the big screen, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

BSG exec producer Ronald Moore explained it thusly:

I think the series works best as an ensemble TV drama. If it translated into a feature it would be a different animal.

You know what? I think he’s right.

And besides, what would the movies focus on? As much as I’d love for BSG to continue, I’ll have to content myself with Caprica.

In addition, the final season premiere, the Reporter said, will be viewable online nine hours before it airs on SciFi.

Hi Amy, I would love to participate I am a big Battlestar Galatica fan, does that make me geeky probably so…
Does it have to be a new article or can it be an old one I wrote?

So, Yvonne, you'll have to blog on BSG to join the carnival, eh?

And bertas – for the first carnival, to help it get off the ground, I'll accept old articles; after that, I'd prefer to accept just new stuff. So by all means submit what you have for the first carnival… And spread the word!

Thanks!
