Blimey. I didn't see that one coming.

I remember watching this when I was just a TeenySavlon. I LaHoVeD it. And I'd
say something like, "It's going to be crap as all remakes are" but then BSG
isn't.

Surely it can't be any worse than the original my fond recolections of seeing
the original in '78 were crushed when it was repeated decades later it truley
was a pile of "Elderado"

Hi guys,
Are you talking about what I think you're talking about!!

If so then it's ruined if SKY get their hands on it

RUINED, RUINED, RUINED, RUINED, RUINED.

Is nothing sacred anymore?

Well, a lot of things don't age well because of the way production and FX, and
acting techniques have progressed.

Look at DrWho in the 1980's. Some eps were pretty ropey, however, the basic
premise was a good one. And, in its own way it is still amusing and
entertaining.

So Blake7 - I think it'll be enjoyable if they can get decent writers and a
good budget.

I'm looking forward to seeing how it all works it. Don't get me wrong though,
I'll be first in the queue to throw rotten fruit and veges at it if it's trash

Hi guys,
I thought they were all killed in the end of the original series. Mind you it
was thirty odd years ago too. I'm showing my age now & maybe I'm wrong lol.

If Sky get it then I'll bet it'll be like that Dream Team crap
they had on before. I mean with that show how much more football could
you want? Football is their sports channels night & day...?

I don't know...

Lol. I can't even remember the ending. But you know TV, they'll do an Aliens
Resurection, clone them all, and grow them in test tubes or something

There was a novel published that did try and get round the ending but in this
case I suspect they will be looking at a 'reimagining' along the lines of
Battlestar Galactica, which Sky does show, so they won't be bound by what
happened in the original.
ipv6 ready
