  • Battlestar Galactica: Can Sci fi Channel Do It Right?



    Saw it advertise on the sci fi channel tonight. I thought I might check it out. I don't know if it will be any good or not but some of the previews look promising. There are some changes they have made to the original concept and it won't be a continuation but a remake series.

    Edward James Olmos will be playing Commander Adama

    The Starbuck charcter will now be a woman.

    all in all it looks pretty cool. Hopefully it will be good.

      I plan on recording it for the family. My wife was a big fan of the old cheesy series... I'm looking forward to see if it's any good or not. The promos look interesting.
      Keep on Civin'

        I wonder if Ms Starbuck will be the same type of character as her male predecessor (sp?)
        I think Boomer has been changed to a female character too.
        Lets hope that they do better than the remake of Dune.

          reds: Yeah, i thought about that myself when I noticed that they had changed Starbuck from a man to a woman. I'll wait to see it to complain too much. Perhaps it works better than the original. If there is some kind of romantic connection between Apollo and Starbuck then I'll be disappointed. I hope they don't go down that line..

          Ming: I've seen the original and it had some promise but it never really got there as far as I'm concerned. Hopefully they will give it an edge that the older one lacked. At least it's someting new,...er.. well something old that is new again

            From the character bio, she is basically the same type just as a woman..

                hopefully it will be better than the recent game, I heard it was a real stinker.

                    no, they ruined the cyclons, turned everyone on the ship into women,probably threw in a love story or two just for the hell of it... I don't like these people.

                        I didn't realise that T&A had become politically correct.

                              If I'm elected President, I'd pass an amendment making it mandatory every show on basic cable has to have full frontal female nudity.
