Omnibus Galactica Webisodes Thead

Oh hey, look, new Battlestar Galactica! It’s just a four-minute snippet, but it’s more than we’ve had in the last few months.

They’re trying to geolocate it so people outside the United States can’t watch, but it’s on other video sites if you know to look for it.
