OT: BSG Series
 

I have to say that this new BSG series is, well, a disappointment of epic proportions. Not that its it a bad series, it simply is so low budge that its almost laughable.

It is just done so dirt cheaply that when you watch it you have to ask yourself "what were they thinking?"

Its really sad that they have to use modern day terms, equipment, and locations becuase they don't have the $$ to do it right.

One actor was actually smoking a ciggerette.

Didn't Starbuck smoke cigars in the original?. yeah I know Starbuck is now a woman (among other things) . When you say the budget is low are we talking B5 low?.

Re: OT: BSG Series
 

AT, I totally disagree with you about the new BSG. I think that they're doing an excellent job with it. So far the stories have been more...human, for lack of a better term. Much better than the original.

Why do you say it seems to be low budget? And what does a cigarette have to do with it? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: BSG Series
 

I agree, I watched it and I quite liked the dark and gritty feel to it. Bastille Day so far has been my favourite (The prison ship), but I never saw the Original BSG. I still enjoy this series though http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

And I'm shocked we got this programme before you http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif SG1 started their eighth season long before we got it.

We should be so lucky. SG1's 7th season started here 2 days ago (I think. Anubis ship attacked Kelowna and was destroyed)

Re: OT: BSG Series
 

Well I have to disagree with you. I grew up on the original show and this one beats it big time. Can we say repeated stock footage. I think the acting is fine for scifi and animation is great. I even like their take on the story line. I hope they incorporate some of the other ideas of the TOS like the Pegasus. But I do have to say I don't like the new centurions. I'd rather have the old school Versions.

Re: OT: BSG Series
 

You mean you've actually got the 8th season of SG1??? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif In Canada, we just got the 7th season this fall!
