Helo Zero

(It will take a very specific type of ’90s-era music nerd to get that reference.)

Over at the day job, my colleague Paul Florez has an intriguing interview with Battlestar Galactica‘s Helo, actor Tahmoh Penikett. I’ve always really liked that character, and apparently I’m not alone: There were no plans for him to show up after the initial miniseries, but viewer reaction (among fellow industry pros, let alone fans) led creator Ronald D. Moore to bring him back. Penikett clearly puts a lot of thought into his role on the show, and you can see that in the interview. Check it out.
