MARCH 21, 2009 - Gomez is in love with Edward James Olmos for what he said at the United Nations this week. He is brilliant, he gets it, and we love him, love him, love him. He is talking about how there is only one race on earth, and that this was the overarching message of his latest TV series, Battlestar Gallactica.

Mr. Olmos' appearance at the UN comes as we near the final episode of the sleeper SciFi channel hit remake of Battlestar Gallactica, starring Edward James Olmos and directed by Felix Enriquez Alcala. The show is a great example of Latino talent creating fantastic work in mainstream TV - just the sort of thing Gomez loves to see.

TV critics across the land are praising the well-written show, suggesting it should get an Emmy and, tragically, begging the network not to cancel it. Canceling Battlestar, for the record, is just the sort of thing Gomez hates to see.

In today's Washington Post/PC World, there is a top 10 list of what business can learn from the show. In the NY Times, there's even a story about how world leaders at the United Nations have been discussing what they can learn from the show. Gomez is not kidding.

Gomez would like to congratulate Mr. Olmos for consistently choosing high-quality projects to align himself with. In particular, we love The Americanos Project documentary and book, which Mr. Olmos did together with the Smithsonian. We loved the film Walkout. Gomez also likes Battlestar Gallactica, and hopes all the recent press will help keep the show on the air.
