Let me know if there's some way for those of us who missed the second half of season 2 to catch up on the story.

They had just met up with the Pegasus at the end of season two - only to discover that the Admiral of the Pegasus is insane and they were on the verge of armed conflict with one another.

Is Mary McConnell's character going to have a miraculous recovery ? She IS supposed to be dying of breast cancer.

Season two is only 1/2-way done. It returns with 10 more episodes starting in January, I think.

This is not surprising considering it is probably the #1 rated on the SciFi Channel.

The best part of the old Galactica series was the two parter with the Pegasus. Adama and Commander Cain made a fantastic team. A pity more could not have been done with it.

I tried to get into this series remake, but I just couldn't do it...especially after trying to portray a piece of Victoria's Secret eye candy as being a member of a cabal of evil mechanical satans. That ranked right up there with trying to spook people that an evil beast lurks in the night and have it manifest as a puppy licking your face.

Cool. I've heard this is a great show, and I've been waiting for it on DVD.

Now when will this unbelievably good show get a comeback?

SciFi Channel will be running a 2-hour pilot movie for the series 'Eureka' soon, also. I saw the pilot at a test screening a few months ago here in Las Vegas and it was very good. SciFi Channel is where it's at! ;-)

Big mistake.

This goes a long way to filling the void in my life since "Babylon 5" ended.

What happend to the orginal, was it to expensive to produce the show. I think it cost over a million each episode.. The ratings was decent.

Sounds like the same problem "V" had.
