The Battlestar Galactica Girls in Interview Magazine

What do you do when your TV show is about to get canned? Show up in as many magazines as you can, wearing as little clothes as you can without being exploitative, of course. Or, if it turns out to be a tad exploitative, hey, it’s all in the name of art, right? Mind you, not that I’m complaining, even though I don’t really “get” why Grace Park, Tricia Helfer, and Katee Sackhoff, aka the Battlestar Galactica Girls, are riding around in, apparently, the desert on hogs wearing little more than undies and chaps in this latest issue of Interview Magazine. But hey, “getting” the context of things is grossly overrated. Give me a half-naked Tricia Helfer, Grace Park, and Katee Sackhoff anyday.

The Battlestar Galactica Girls in GQ

I don’t know who is currently doing the promo work for the Sci Fi Channel’s Battlestar Galactica show, but if they had been doing this back in the beginning — slapping its three main attractions, i.e. the girl trio of Tricia Helfer, Grace Park, and Katee Sackhoff on every media outlet they could get into — then the show might have improved on its ratings instead of just being the critical darling, but barely-seen TV show that it is. In any case, it’s better late than never, I guess, and here’s Tricia Helfer, Grace Park, and Katee Sackhoff getting all retro and junk in the latest issue of GQ Magazine. The hair scares me, but I’ll get over it.

The Sci Fi Channel Brings Out the Babes

Who says the Sci Fi Channel doesn’t know how to sell their shows? For their upfront meet and greet with the press, the Sci Fi Channel brought out the big guns — the sexiest gals this side of sci-fi to sell their wares. Amanda Tapping, post-Stargate SG1 and Atlantis (and set to introduce a new show that she’ll produce and star), and of course, there are the Battlestar Galactica babes, Tricia Helfer, Grace Park, and Katee Sackhoff. Battlestar Galactica will be saying bye-bye after this season, but if the Sci Fi Channel is smart, they’ll ink all three gals for new series. Behold — the best parts of the Sci Fi Channel’s Upfront.

Three Reasons to Let the Cylons Win

Let’s face it — if you had to be conquered and enslaved by alien cyborgs from outer space, then at least have them come in the form of Lucy Lawless, Grace Park, and Tricia Helfer, three terrific reasons to let the Cylons win. Okay, sure, so being conqured and enslaved by robots is not anything to get excited about, but seriously, if you had to be enslaved, at least they could look like these three hotties. Am I right or am I right? I mean, they could turn you into their love slaves and what not, and “force” you to do things to them. Um, yeah. Watch Battlestar Galactica when it comes back with Season 4 sometime next month. Or the month after. Eh, you know. Check out the three reasons why we should let the Cylons win the war.

Geek Love: The Babes of Battlestar Galactica

Just because in the future the human race is facing extinction and are being pursued by killer cyborgs of their own making, it doesn’t necessarily preclude sexy babes from showing off. Such is the case of the Sci Fi Channel’s “Battlestar Galactica”, currently considered the greatest TV show ever invented by man EVER. Or some other high accolade that it probably doesn’t really deserve, especially after just three years on the air. But whatever. We’re here to give love to the girls of BSG, and that’s what we’re gonna do. (And yes, there is as reason Mary McDonnell is on the list…)

“Battlestar Galactica” Gets a Fourth Season

Great news, fans of depressing sci-fi! The Sci Fi Channel announced recently that it has renewed the show for a fourth season, ordering 13 new episodes with an eye toward a January 2008 premiere. Apparently the show got a slight boost in ratings after moving to Sunday Nights from its usual Friday Night schedule. I don’t particular care all that much, but I do cherish the opportunity to see more Grace Park, Lucy Lawless, and Tricia Helfer on TV. Them’s nice lookin’ sci-fi chicks there, folks. Read all about it here.

“Battlestar Galactica” Going Straight-to-DVD?

Here’s news that The Powers That Be, led by showrunner/producer Ron Moore, plans on sending the new BSG onto DVD shelves if the show doesn’t get picked up for a fourth season — or even if it does get picked up, they’ll still do a 2-hour telefilm after the third season. BSG, for those of you who don’t know, is the most depressing show (sci-fi or otherwise) on TV, thus it has achieved universal acclaim from the mainstream press. I personally think the new BSG has its moments, but on the whole, watching it is as depressing as running over my cat with a car, taking a bath in the mud, and then getting beeyatch slap by that slow kid down the block. But what do I know. At least Starbuck and Boomer (aka Katee Sackhoff and Grace Park) are super hot on the show, so that’s two reasons to watch. And yeah, that robot girl ain’t so bad either.

“Battlestar Galactica” Season 3 Promos

Oh, those crazy Cylons and their crazy human resistance fighters. They’re about to come back for another battle in Round 3, this time with the humans entrenched in captivity and those Cylon bastards overlordin’ over them. Expect a lot of Abu Ghraib references, Bush Foreign Policy bashing, and all that good Hollywood junk. But damn, does that show have a lot of hot sci-fi chicks or what? Here are some of them in the show’s Season 3 Promos. (And oh yeah, the men are sprinkled in there, too, if you care about that stuff…)

Grace Park is Gracefully Hot

“Grace Park is gracefully hot”? Oh man, that’s lame! Anyways, here’s “Battlestar Galactica’s” resident cylon bombshell (sorry, Tricia) looking very nice in a light blue dress number that does amazing things to her curves. I have to admit, she’s got to be one of the hottest Koreans I’ve ever seen. Kim chi me!

Grace Park

More pictures of Battlestar Galactica’s Grace Park, because frankly, you can never have too much of a good park. I mean, parks provide you shelter, a place to sit, birds to feed, and somewhere to walk your dog. Why, without parks — er, oh right, we’re talking about Grace Park the actress. Nevermind. Here are some pictures of her.

Grace Park in Maxim Magazine 2005

Korean-Canadian babe Grace Park is part of the new “Battlestar Galactica” TV show, where robots return to destroy humankind and chase them into space. There are robots that looks human on the show, but as you can see from these photos, Grace Park is all babe! Beam me up, Grace! (Oops, wrong show.)
