Link


(Open on Linkara seated at his Futon)

Linkara: Hello, and welcome to Atop the Fourth Wall, where bad comics burn. Today, we're talking about Ba– (he stops abruptly and looks around nervously) Wait a second.

(He picks up some papers, presumably the script, and looks closely at them)

Linkara: Oh, my God. It's the first episode in, like, six or seven weeks that's not a sequel episode! (becomes excited) CELEBRATION!

(Cut to a shot of the show title card, reading "Merry Christmas From Atop the Fourth Wall"; snow falls and jingle bells are heard)

Linkara: (frustrated) Why that one again? Seriously, the hell? (shakes head) Anyway, while we're still going to be looking at something new today... there is gonna be a slight schedule change.

(Cut to a shot of the cover for "Battlestar Galactica: Journey's End")

Linkara (v/o): Originally, I planned to review "Battlestar Galactica: Journey's End", based solely on the idea of "Hey, [Rob] Liefeld-esque '90s artwork combined with Battlestar Galactica of all things", and the title implies that it's their version of the conclusion of the show that didn't have a real conclusion. That's fantastic! Perfect review fodder!

Linkara: Annnd this is why it's important to do research on this crap before you decide to schedule it. See, all those things are technically true about "Journey's End". The problem is that it's also the conclusion to a bunch of other Battlestar Galactica miniseries as well.
