Battlestar Galactica in HD

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the high-def-cylons dept.

Hauzer writes "Ars Technica is carrying news that I know will bring joy to some fans: Universal HD is going to be broadcasting Battlestar Galactica. They're going to run the miniseries and the first Season (2005) of the new Battlestar Galactica, starting Sunday night at 8PM, with HD repeats coming every week. Now if only Sci-Fi would provide an HD channel so we can watch when the new stuff airs!"

    Personally, I think the new BG stays true to the orignal's intentions: A ragtag fleet fleeing from a relentless enemy trying to find Earth. The original just turned into a "oh, here's another space station/planet/whatever with problems, let's fix it and get on our way". In the new show, There's none of that. Just a ragtag fleet fleeing from a relentless enemy trying to find Earth.

    And no stupid "daggit".

    That's right. All your base.

    In a sense, the original urned into Star Trek :)

    well, do you like "the West Wing"? do you like "Six Feet Under"? If no then i know where you're coming from: You have no taste in well scripted, well acted television.

    No for me the new BS is probably some of the best TV out there. I have no way of knowing if either of us is more right than the other. But I do know that if this wasn't a science fiction show it'll be up for a few Emmy's.
