Even though they made Starbuck a female, I'm going to watch the show. I doubt if it will be as good as the original, but at least it will have a modern plotline instead of the plotlines they were using in the 70's. And yes, I was around the for the original prime-time viewings of the orignal series. I was 14 or 15 when BG came out. But I still plan on buying the DVD set when it comes out in a couple of weeks. It's not quite like having Star Wars on a weekly basis, but for the late 1970's, it was just about all we had except for Buck Rogers (I didn't become a Dr Who fan until much later, as I couldn't catch all of the episodes in order in my area). I hope Olmos can partially fill Lorne Greene's shoes, but that would be a hard slot to fill. Hopefully he'll do a decent job of it.
