Battlestar Outs Two Characters in Webisode

                                                     If you’re jonesing for more Battlestar Galactica (and who isn’t?) a 10-webisode story arc kicks off this Friday at the Sci Fi Channel site. The 3-4 minute bites of BSG, called Face of the Enemy run from Dec.12 – Jan.12.

Sci Fi Channel explains the webisodes are about the passengers on a stranded Raptor who start dying one by one, revealing that there’s a killer in their midst. But much of the talk right now is about a same-sex relationship revealed in the first webisode. Stop reading right now if you don’t want to hear anymore…

Friday’s webisode features a kiss between Lt. Felix Gaeta and Lt. Hoshi. This isn’t the first same sex relationship in Galactica lore as Admiral Helena Cain and one of the Number Six model Cylons had a relationship. What do you think, readers? Is this even a big deal? I’ll be curious to see if this revelation does anything for the SCI FI Channel’s web traffic.
