SciFi Channel To Air A New Galactica Series

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the production-values dept.

EvilBuu writes "The Sci-Fi Channel has begun airing ads announcing a full Battlestar Galactica series following the surprisingly (to some) good new mini series starring Edward James Olmos. Looks like it will be a straight forward continuation of the mini, with the same cast and more Cylon goodness!" According to this press release, Richard Hatch will guest star, and the show will air starting in January 2005.

    They've been showing previews for it since the Stargate SG1/Atlantis season premier weekend... and pretty much every other hour of the day... can't miss it.

    Also of note:

    Farscape is coming back as Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars. Old News.

    New series based on Ursula K LeGuin's EarthSea coming in December. Old News.

    Firefly is coming back in movie form as Serenity next summer. Old News.

    SciFi channel is also contemplating a Larry Niven Ringworld miniseries. Old News.

    And most likely, there's going to be another 8 or so Tremors spinoffs...

    I have seen the ads on since the season premiere of SG-1, which was a month ago. This story is seriously dated.

  3. Why doesn't Sci-Fi broadcast old Dr.Who reruns???? by zymano · · Score: 2, Informative

    It's about money .

    Dr Who and SciFi channel should be a perfect match.
