Holy shit! Season four of Battlestar Galactica is so close I can TASTE IT. It tastes like hatred and blood and robots! And it reeks like Colonel Tigh’s alkie breath!

Season four starts April 4—but luckily for everyone who has to listen to me never shut the fuck up about how Battlestar is the best TV show ever and they should really watch it even if they don’t normally watch shows that feature spaceships and/or sexy robots, there’s something to tide BSG fans over until season four starts up. Tonight, the cast of Battlestar will appear on Letterman to deliver the Top 10 List. Sci Fi Wire has the details.

Ten stars of SCI FI Channel’s original series Battlestar Galactica will make an appearance on CBS’ Late Show With David Letterman to present the Top 10 List on March 19.
They include Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, Tricia Helfer, Grace Park, Michael Hogan, Aaron Douglas and Lucy Lawless. The show airs at 11:35 p.m. ET/PT.

Finally, my dream of seeing Mary McDonnell deliver a joke on Letterman is going to come true!

But anyway holy shit it’s almost season four! Is Starbuck a cylon?! Will Chief kill his baby?! Will the soundtrack include any more embarrassing covers of “All Along the Watchtower”?! SO MANY QUESTIONS!!! Maybe some will be answered tonight. Probably not. Shit. And I guess once this whole Top 10 thing is over, I’ll have to find some other way to pass the time until April 4.

Thanks, Galactica Sitrep.
