Speaking of which, GUESS WHAT THE SCI-FI CHANNEL IS UP TO.
Looks like the series is being "re-imagined" and crafted into a four-hour miniseries. Richard Hatch and everyone else who was part of the original series and who expressed interest in the new show (and who kept fan interest alive for 20+ years) has been told to get lost. BTW, Hatch produced a slick theatrical trailer to pitch his concept of the revised/updated series. That was probably the last acting role (however brief) for John Colicos, who died shortly thereafter.
Here's a taste of just how bad this is gonna suck: the Starbuck character has been recast as female. It appears that instead of an upgraded BSG, they're going to present the viewers with a new Galactica 1980 (*ack* - ptoooie!). Stupid, stupid, stupid.
One other thing... the above quote could apply to the Islamic extremists as easily as it applys to liberals. I know... not much difference in many cases.
