Re: OT: BSG - wtf?

Re: OT: BSG - wtf?

I suppose we could start commenting in this thread about how we figure the last episodes will go. But, given that there are no fewer (by my count) 3 more prequel series to come out yet, I'm figuring...

Re: OT: BSG - wtf?

As I understand it, because of the writer's strike, there will be half of the remaining episodes next season, and the other half the season after that. So it's a long wait.

FWIW, I wasn't too...

Re: OT: Need help with renaming files in XP

I use an app instead of Windows Explorer called: Explorer XP {company link} (http://www.explorerxp.com) It offers some robust renaming options. Or you could try to find some freeware renaming app.
