This is all so interesting!  Wow…”Sometimes a Great Notion” was almost the last episode written due to the WGA strike.  That would’ve been the most depressing thing ever!  It boggles my mind just to think about it.

I love Bear McCreary’s blog.  Beyond giving great insights into the music, it also illuminates the episodes as a whole and gives additional insights into the characters themselves.

I don’t want to spoil season 4.5’s premiere for anyone who has yet to see it, otherwise I’d post the full text.

Bear McCreary is the composer for Battlestar Galactica and has kept a blog throughout the years talking about the pieces he’s composed for the show.

In his latest post he talks about the daunting task of creating the score for Sometimes a Great Notion.

It’s so very cool to read his words, and draw my own emotions from the music he’s created.

Check it out.
