If you're around my age, you remember how awesome Battlestar Galactica was. I've been really excited about the remake, a 2-parter that aires last night and tonight on Sci-Fi.
I don't know whay I'm so excited; it won't be the same. For some reason, people have come to demand much edgier fare in their entertainment and won't stand for campy scripts with bad special effects anymore. Now it all has to be a soap opera.
I taped part I last night. I will tape part II tonight and watch them when I have time. I look forward to it, but am preparing for disappointment. They just don't make 'em like they used to.

Posted by: Tripp at December 9, 2003 04:41 PMHey man, I watched the first part the other night. I liked it so much more than I thought I would. This is a pretty dark remake of a cheesy, campy show that I liked when I was a kid, but I did enjoy it in a adult soap opera with good special effects kind of way. Maybe I could borrow your copy of part 2??? Let me know if it is worth watching.

Anyway, they 'chose to go more "Band of Brothers" than "Space Opera" a la "Star Wars".' To quote Matt- some people get hurt.
