I absolutely refuse to watch that POS.
Everyone who’s a fan of BG has known for months that this was going to be a turkey of epic proportions.
All they kept was the names and the fact that it’s set in space. Other than that they decided to give it “a fresh re-interpretation”. [B]BULLSHIT!![/B] There was nothing wrong with the original story.
They also slammed the door, HARD, on Richard Hatch when he tried to get involved in the new project. Damn shame since he’s been a driving force in keeping the series alive with several books and support of the fan base.
You KNOW it’s going to be bad when the leading actor (Edward James Olmos) comes out in a press conference held by Sci-Fi Channel and tells everyone point blank if they were fans of the original series NOT TO WATCH THE NEW ONE, THAT THEY’LL HATE IT.
Well, at least the original is on DVD finally.
