Default Re: New Galactica Series

I was a big fan of the original series (cuz I was like 12 years old and Apollo was my hero) and I think they did a nice job of keeping just enough of the old to validate using the name, but then reworking it into quality modern TV. There's too much good TV out there to watch these Last 2 years (ie: the CSI shows, Law and Order, Stargate, House, etc.). Just plain old good writing, and I think this series, if allowed to mature, will be better TV than Babylon 5 was.

Speaking of B5, I've noticed a lot of the CGI pioneered by that series on this new BSG. And that's cool.
