Default Re: Battlestar Galactica II (No Joke)

The Dagget was actually a monkey in costume. Seriously. I wonder why the series failed? I mean it had a lot to offer, but it was canned.

Does anybody remember the mistake? The reason the series was cancelled was not all brought on by Ratings dips, but the producers were sued by George Lucas, The show was very costly to produce, and the sponsors were scared by the content and thus were not willing to pay a lot for advertising.

The same thing happened, without the lawsuit, to another fine sci fi series about a decade earlier. Star Trek.

Yet, they both survive in one form or another. Lets just hope that BSG can get up and running again.
