Battlestar Galatica’s ratings were down again versus the previous week’s Friday @10pm airing, but only by 60,000 viewers. Based on fan reaction to this past Friday’s episode I doubt we’ll see any significant bleeding next week. The fans seemed to have loved the episode.
I’ll be hanging on for sure at least one more week now that Comcast in San Francisco has added SciFi HD to the high definition lineup (channel 736), and hopefully I won’t experience any problems with the HD telecast. Mild spoilers below the data table.
| Date | Episode | HH Rating/Share | Viewers (millions) | 18-49 Rating/Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 04/04/2008 | He That Believeth in Me | 1.3/2 | 2.138 | 1.1/3 |
| 04/11/2008 | Six of One | 1.1/2 | 1.801 | 0.9/3 |
| 04/18/2008 | The Ties That Bind | 1.1/2 | 1.741 | 0.8/3 |
I think I’m just worn out by last year and want them to just get to Earth already. Sure, the Cylons are now immersed in a great civil war, sure they’re now as human as we as the humans (killing, really killing their own). But as sure as I’m sitting here this ends with humans and Cylons coexisting peacefully on planet Earth.
I’m pretty sure I’m not a Cylon, but there’s a song playing in my head anyway: “Cylon and Human” to the tune of Ebony and Ivory.
In the meanwhile, it’s very cool to see them blow stuff up — I’m sure it will look even cooler in high def. Still a tragic waste of some perfectly good number 6 models.

Note to Polly, not enough text to go crazy with the pictures this week. Next week, beefcake.

Robert - Roslin looks pretty good don’t you think? I’ll hold you to the next week beefcake promise. (I don’t even watch BSG anymore. I just like the equal opportunity thing!)

Better than pretty good. Hollywood actress good!

Looks like Dr. Who could not get more viewers for BSG. They had their season premiere right before BSG.

yep. Dr Who had about 1.4 million from 8:30p to 10:00p. I was surprised that it was relatively so close to BSG

I knew this was going to happen with BSG. I bet there Live + 7 numbers are very high tough.

I hear baby got back in my head so I am either a cylon or a human that likes cylon booty. I did not watch season three except first two episodes for I was burned out on the dark theme and everyone on the edge of death every darn episode. I am glad I did not for I really did not miss much did I. Get to earth then leave us hanging for another six months into 2009,,,booooooooooooo

Those are the season premiere numbers, after SciFi Channel used their new math. Fact is, that Galactica In Name Only (GINO) has lost viewers since the season premiere and has lost 69% of its audience since it’s been on the air. That’s pretty bad.
