Cylons vs. Colonials
SCIFIpedia is an information resource. It’s like a classroom full of reference books, where you can browse to your heart’s content and you never have to face those surprise Thursday pop quizzes.
But you can if you want to! If you enjoy finding out whether you know as much as you think you know, let me direct your attention to the official Battlestar Galactica show site, where you’ll find not one, not two, but seven trivia quizzes that will take you at hyperlight speed into the world of the Colonial survivors and their archenemies . . .

Stargate Returns
On April 13, the adventures of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis return. I’m looking forward to it despite having to say goodbye to a series that has kept its position as a fan favorite for ten years.
To get ready for the new episodes, you might like to quickly run through the episode guides in SCIFIpedia. You’ll find the first serving of SG-1’s Season 10 in place, with Season 9 yet to come. Atlantis has write-ups of the episodes of the first three seasons.
SCIFI.COM has some plans in store to commemorate . . .
