Back to it

We're back! After a nice nine days away from the office, the Charlotte's team is back at work. We're still on schedule to finish up when we're supposed to, regardless of when the film will premiere, which IMDB states as now December, 2006! I've got a couple shots to put to bed this week, and I've received two finals so far this year!

Over the holiday break I had a chance to catch up with some old, and new series. Battlestar Galactica took up two solid days to finish watching. I'm all caught up with Season 2, and the new episode starts this Friday. So far I'm impressed with the varied storylines, and the effects are top notch. It's a great sci-fi drama, almost along the complex storylines of Babylon 5. I mentioned before in this blog that several former coworkers now run and own one of the companies that create effects for the show, and they're doing a great job!

I also started watching a cancelled series called Dead Like Me, which was recommended to me earlier in the year. I just watched the pilot and am waiting for the other episode discs to reach me, and can't for the life of me figure out why it was cancelled. The pilot was quite engaging, the effects were nice, and there was an actual story with great characters. I worked directly with one of the co-producers, Bob Habros, while I was in Vancouver, on The Outer Limits. It's such a shame that a great show like this was cancelled.
