Battlestar Galactica season 2 has finished, with a two-part-plus special ending. ( Getting spoilery now ... )
Also caught up with last night's Doctor Who tonight. Overall I enjoyed it, but I never quite felt the Cybermen were more than Daleks with legs, they needed a bit more to differentiate them (especially now that Daleks can go up stairs!).
Finally, scanned through the Eurovision Song Contest (was later on the tape with Who), just to get an idea of the songs entered. Most I skipped after 30 seconds or so, when it was clear that they were mostly ordinary pop of some sort - except for a couple for which 5 seconds was enough, one of the singers had dreadful intonation, and the UK act was pretty dire. I liked Norway's song, and Finland, of course, and even listened to both of them in full ... twice ! Ok, Lordi were channeling Kiss and Alice Cooper and many other 80's metal bands, but they did it well and made it quite catchy.
