The original show was innovative and new. I kinda prefer the Cylons and I miss the original Apollo, Starbuck, and the rest. Those guys were great. But the new show ain't half bad either. Great storytelling and compelling characters. Nice work!

I was looking into watching this show awhile back but never got around to it. Is Apollo and Starbuck an item or no?

I loved the original series when it started (I am a tv junkie). The pilot episode and first few shows were just great. The end of the run definitely fell off, but was still enjoyable. The new series is completely different. The writing and acting are much stronger, but I do miss the cheesier aspects of the original series (and yes, the Cylons).

I never saw the original series, but I fear I would probably hate it. Part of what I adore so much about the "re-imagined" series is that it's so serious. I believe it's called "space opera", meaning it's sci-fi with (over)emphasis on drama. I seem to have a thing for that. Also, part of what continually gets me about Battlestar Galactica (I've got to wait until next year before I get to see Season Two - that's Germany for you, it's preposterous!) is also what got me with the Sunshine trailer: the music. Both the Sunshine trailer and the BSG intro music are very dramatic, and give both a great feeling that most other science fiction seems to lack... real emotional attachment. I bought myself the first season of (the new) BSG on DVD and I haven't regretted it yet. Well, apart from seeing that nasty cliff-hanger at the end of the season... which I still haven't seen resolved. It's slowly driving me nuts. How can there be two years between two seasons? Gnngrghhh... Anyway, for those of you into BSG, check this Freespace modification out. *checks site again in the process* ZOMG! The demo is out! *immediately downloads, excited*
