Battlestar Galactica Resurrection Effort Described
MistGhost writes "A background story of the effort, both by Richard Hatch, and Ron Moore to resurrect Battlestar Galactica (NYT link so remember to lie on their free registration). Now that the show has started it's second season (at least here in the States) this article appears. " I sat down with the Tivo last night and really enjoyed the premiere. I think the SG-1 retooling as real potential too- that show has been stale for a long time.
Or the original BSG dogfights. The Cylons never once figured out that if they had seat-belts, they too could reverse thrusters and not get shot from the rear like they did every episode.
One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
In the interests of national security, I changed the password.
Signed.
Homeland security department.
I too really enjoyed the new SG-1...
Probably more than I enjoyed any of the episodes of the last season.I particularly Farlah's comments on our limited gene-pool when Cameron and Daniel are side by side (Don't they look just a bit similar???).

Have you looked at your site? Hello, 1999 called.
One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
After all, some of very best episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space 9 was done with his assistance.
One could very easily consider that "damning with faint praise". But then [o! Blasphemy!] I'm not a Trek fan.
Boxey will come back... he apparently, um, grew a bit. "Shot up like a weed" was the term used IIRC.
I did like the one line he was given in the new show.
Colonel Tigh: Hey kid, where's your mother?
Boxey: She's dead. Where's yours?

You sir, are a cunt.
But right click, BugMeNot, and I'm in.
I don't know if BS was crap, but Starbuck was (and still is) one of the coolest space pilots ever, and that includes Han Solo.
And the guy blew off Cylons while smoking a cigar! in space! how much cooler can one get???
And one thing I will say for Glen Larson: putting Erin Gray in spandex ("Buck Rogers") was, indeed, friggin' genius. Kudos for that.
I was just a wee tyke when that show was on. I remember I was a confused little boy and couldn't figure out why my wee-wee got big and swollen whenever Erin came onscreen. So I asked my dad about it and he explained what was going on. If it hadn't been for Buck Rodgers in the 25th Century, my sex education probably wouldn't have happened for many years.
Or better yet, why do people write "alot", which isn't even a word!? Strangely, they never write "alittle".
Who honestly cared to see Worf have a romantic relationship with Dax?
Heh...sci-fi geeks who actually don't have anything approaching romance in their real lives, maybe.
Oh, come on, you know it's true.
So, umm, someone's tapping Amanda?
Yeah, thanks to Erin, I went into puberty about two years early.
Lynda Carter didn't hurt either tho.
Sig for hire.
That and there's a buffer overflow in the Galactica's targeting systems that the Cylons haven't gotten around to posting to Bugtraq yet...
