The trials and tribulations of the Lawrence family.Amazon.com
In the mid-’70s, Family was sort of the anti-All in the Family–dealing with the issues of the day, but far more sincerely and earnestly than Archie Bunker & tribe.

The kids (divorcee Nancy, played in season 1 by … More >>

Battlestar Galactica’s Edward James Olmos wasn’t kidding when he said “the series is even better than the miniseries.” As developed by sci-fi TV veteran Ronald D. Moore, the “reimagined” BG is exactly what it claims to be: a drama for grown-ups in a science-fiction setting. The mature intelligence of the series is its greatest asset, from the tenuous respect between Galactica’s militarily principled commander Adama (Olmos) and politic… More >>
