For those of us who normally AVOID Skiffy's website, here's a *fantastic* reason to go poking around there:

They've released the first episode "33" to free web-cast. This is a streamer for broadband only--doesn't look like it'll scale down to dialup or ISDN.

Be sure to have the latest RealPlayer software installed. Great news here is Skiffy's got a fast server dishing it up and the RP content *actually* plays very very well.

This was the FIRST time I saw the new BSG. And I am floored. I love it. The increasing ratings every week makes sense; this show grabs you and won't let go.

It's not clear how long they will host this, or if more eps will screen online. One thing is for certain: I now have my only reason to watch Sci-Fi Channel again. Wow.

Not to disparage RealPlayer, but BT is better.
