short dramatic presentations

Does anyone have any comments on any of these Hugo nominees? I don't watch these shows:

  • “The Constant” ( Lost) Carlton Cuse & Damon Lindelof, writers; Jack Bender, director (Bad Robot, ABC studios)
  • “Revelations” ( Battlestar Galactica) Bradley Thompson & David Weddle, writers; Michael Rymer, director (NBC Universal)
  • “Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead” ( Doctor Who) Steven Moffat, writer; Euros Lyn, director (BBC Wales)
  • “Turn Left” ( Doctor Who) Russell T. Davies, writer; Graeme Harper, director (BBC Wales)

    If you know where I can find the episodes, let me know. I will decide whether or not to vote on this category based on people's comments and hopefully on seeing them.

    The two Doctor Who stories are on the Season 4 DVD set; the Battlestar Galactica story is on the season 4.0 DVD set. Best bet would be the library, unless there is something like a Blockbuster nearby.

    I have not seen the Lost episode. The Battlestar Galactica episode was significant for the story arc but there were better episodes that year that I think should have been nominated before this one. The two Doctor Who stories are very good. Like the Battlestar Galactica episode, "Turn Left" was the more significant episode for the season's story arc. "Silence in the Library" / "Forest of the Dead" was, again, the better story, and you'll never look at shadows in quite the same way.

    Hope this helps.
