New Battle Star Galactica

[Cleaner475 150]

YEP i never liked Battle star Galatica - But I read about that two the next ONE IS THE LAST ONE! So this thread will become useless!

[JanYpe 17]

It will indeed become as useless as your post. Eventually. We might continue as a general SF thread, just to spite you.

At least we'll get a decent conclusion. I don't want the series to drag on and become as bad as the average tv show. 22 good episodes are better to have than 44 crummy ones.

Who wants to bet that the entire series will end with a shot of the fleet reaching Earth?

[Easy Bakes 253]

Thats going to be the 1st episode of next season.

the remainder of the season will be them slowly discovering they are ALL cylons or something like that.

Sci Fi News:

SciFi has released their fall schedule, and says that "Beginning in October, SCI FI will air Battlestar Galactica "mini-sodes" entitled "Razor" during episodes of the hit series Flash Gordon, Fridays at 9 p.m."

Also: return of Farscape

Dr Who Series 3 in playing of Fridays  Before Flash Gorden.

BTW Flash Gorden not to bad,and if thier showing minisodes of BSG so much the better.

Which is not to far away in october.

Just found this thread, glad there are other BSG fans here! Though I have to point out that the thread subtitle says that "Season 5" begins next January... it's season 4.

I've been watching Season One and Two (and the mini) on DVD over the summer with my Mother. Suprisingly, she has gotten really into it. We are up to The Captains Hand. Funnily enough, I've almost become an expert on those two seasons since I started to watch it. (Poor Billy )

Anyway, the Season Three DVD is coming out on Monday, and I can't wait to watch it.

As for Earth, I'm thinking the best thing for them to do is for the entire crew to die, or at least all the main characters, in a final battle against the Cylons above Earth. We should never see them landing on Earth, and we shouldn't have any indication as to what time period Earth is in, and if it is inhabited or not. The last scene should be a camera swing down onto Earth, where it lingers for a second, as the debri of the battle floats past, and the survivors (if there are any) are seen going through the atmosphere.

Okay, I've read a lot about Razor, but I still don't know what its about. Can anyone clarify this?

Edit:  Why does 788 posts make you a City Slicker anyway?

Sound like there will be little bits of episodes( 5 minutes or so ?) of BSG during this season of Flash Gordon.

Sorta sounds like  what Cartoon Network did with the Star Wars animated Clone Wars thing.

Although i do hope that  Scifi does what Cartton network did and show the whole thing at once at some point.

Cant stand  just bits and peices of a show like that.

"Razor" is a mini-series in itself, it wont be in-between episodes of flash gordon as 5 min clips (only the teasers). It will air in two halves in November.

Please, use SF for Science Fiction.  SciFi is the plural of Scum Fum.

SciFi = Scifi Channel

Thats the actual name of the channel/website/network.

No grammer correction Necessary

Theres a battlestar wiki?  Thanks for the reply.  We don't get the SciFi channel up here in Canada, but I'm sure it will be on at a similar time.

Must have been named by a flak.  True SF fans never say that.

[Easy Bakes 253]

Dr Who done for the season. Razor is Soon.

Flash Gorden was better then expected.

Watched Odyssey 5 last night. so far i liked it RoboCop ( Peter Weller) is the lead guy.

[Haljackey 17,390]

I have been watching this show more and more... The more I watch it, the more I want to watch... This makes it a perfect show for the TV networks to advertise something because they know I will be watching. I am also looking forward to Razor when it comes out...

My favorites so far have been Pegasus, Resurrection Ship, Exodus and the Eye of Jupiter...  I also have a liking for the show's musical soundtrack, especially during the prelude to a battle and the battle itself (as well as the aftermath).

The biggest thing that frustrates me is that the show is filmed in HD, yet we can't get the show in HD here in Canada because the Space channel takes over Sci-Fi's programming (as with every other Canadian network broadcasting US TV shows the same time they air) and there is no HD channel for it. Oh well, at least my TV can blow up the show which is still widescreen to fill up my screen.

[JanYpe 17]

So have you guys been keeping up with the Razor Flashbacks? The third one has some great shoot-outs going on with old series basestars and raiders.

[Easy Bakes 253]

Cant wait for Razor

[Haljackey 17,390]

Wow! Amazing video JanYpe! Theres nothing like a classic space battle with state-of-the-art special effects!

I came across a video on Youtube, showing the BEST SPECIAL EFFECTS I HAVE EVER SEEN!

Check it out yourself!

[Easy Bakes 253]

Only one week till Razor

I realy enjoyd Flash Gordon but  they canceled Oddesey 5.

Trying to decide whos more Evil Ming or Rankol

[Sam 163]

I just got my BSG Season 3 DVDs today. (I haven't seen season 3 at all yet). I'm looking forward to see what happens.

[Easy Bakes 253]

Watching Razor tomorrow night

thank god for DVR's

[Joesocwork 4]

I caught the last half of Razor on Saturday night. Pretty intense stuff as always. It, along with the upcoming previews, gave a great teaser about the upcoming season in March.

Sooooo... Forget being a Cylon, is Starbuck going to turn out to be a villain afterall?

[Haljackey 17,390]

Ya, I too watched only the last half of Razor on Saturday. It was confusing to me because I didn't see the first part so I really couldn't follow what was going on. The thing I did like were the awesome space battles and the special effects. It was also cool to actually experience what Fisk went through under Kain's command. One question was answered in this 2-hour episode: the fate of Starbuck. Now that we know her fate we can see what actually happens.

One thing I did want to see that wasn't in there was when Pegasus got the first transmission from Galactica . We know how they responded in Pegasus, but I did want to see their expression when they detected the fleet.

I really want to see what happens to the fleet after we left them at the end of season 3. You know, the power outage and the Cylon fleet close by, and, of course, the return of Starbuck.

[Easy Bakes 253]

Only watched Part 1 so far

Was i imagining or did i see chief in flash back on the pegasus deck?

When they chanted after deciding to fight?

[Easy Bakes 253]

Soon

Very Soon

I have never watched the new BG, so maybe I can throw this question to the fans. How does it compare to the shining standard of sci-fi tv, Firefly? I am one of the biggest FF fans ever, but I'm leery of remakes of old shows. Questions/comments/discussion?

Like Firefly, Battlestar Galactica isn't an over the top kind of science fiction show. There are no crazy aliens. BSG's guns fire bullets, their missiles carry nukes, their operations are believable. The Galactica really is like a big aircraft carrier in space, except outnumbered and with group of civilian ships to protect.

It isn't connected with the original series, which is a good thing in my opinion.  It's definitely worth it to at least find the miniseries and season 1.

There's some pretty large spoilers in the previous 10 pages though.

:edit: Hang on, I posted about this before.

The new Battlestar Galactica is much more of a drama in space then a standard Sci-Fi show. I dislike a lot of sci-fi because it takes itself far too serious, far too often. BSG doesn't have that problem. (Nor did Firefly)

Wow I thought the protector in the Shara Connor Chronicles looked familiar,I only watched it once though. 

Its River from Firefly.
