Battlestar Galactica to Return

Posted by chrisd on from the thirteenth-tribe-indeed dept.

Chris Curtin writes "Looks like SciFi channel is redoing the classic series! I don't know about a female Starbuck but it might be interesting." I can't picture a Galactica without Lorne Green. So long as they don't bring back that stupid robot dog, it might be okay.

  1. New mormon connections as well? by dlleigh · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The real question is, will the new version have all of the thinly disguised mormon doctrine like the original did?

    See http://www.proaxis.com/~sherlockfam/art5.html or http://home.earthlink.net/~billotto/Mormon_N_BSG.h tml or http://www.lib.msu.edu/lorenze1/bg.htm
    or anywhere else you can google up from "battlestar galactica" and "mormon".

  2. Another SciFi show I will boycott.... by uberdood · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Let's review:

    1. Cancel Farscape because of money.
    2. Run non-SF crap like Crossing over and Dream
    Team (and soon Scare Tactics).
    2. Spend tons of money on Spielberg to do Taken.
    3. Spend tons of money on a show that was NEVER
    any good (Battlestar Galactica).

    I'll be boycotting BSG like I did Taken.
    Anyone remember when MTV played music videos? Same thing is happening with SciFi. At some point seing actual science fiction will be a rare oddity on SciFi.
