So a couple of weeks ago we were decompressing at the cottage, enjoying some DVD sets loaned to us by friends: Reid loaned us the second season of Battlestar Galactica, and Erik loaned us the first and second seasons of Corner Gas (to make sure we’d seen all of them). (Thanks everybody!)
I blame a vacation after a stressful and deadline-filled spring, but at some point, we started getting distracted by how similar the voices and manners of Corner Gas’s Oscar and BSG’s Colonel Tighe were. Then we realized that every character in BSG has a corresponding Corner Gas character.
And from there, it was all downhill, as we were suddenly putting new lyrics to the Corner Gas tune over a sink full of suds and dirty dishes.
Sung to the Corner Gas theme, Not A Lot Goin’ On:
You can tell me that machines made by man
Blew up your worlds and that they have a plan
And now you search for Earth
In a fleet of old tin cans…
There seems to be a lot goin’ on
Every second person’s a Cylon
Not to mention that psychotic blonde
And the plot just keeps goin’ on and on…

As a monstrous fan of both shows, this gave me quite the laugh. Good job! Even their facial expressions match up spot-on with the corresponding BSG characters’ 😀 Will be humming the new tune all day.
