Battlestar Galactica - Revisionist Version.

No, no and thrice no.

I don't care that Starbuck and Boomer are girls.
I don't care that the new Vipers look very very pants
I don't care the CGI in HALO was better

It's just dull.

"What about the starboard launch tubes?" "We turned them into a gift shop."

Better to keep them that way.

Oh - and they know the demographic they're aiming for - hot cylon totty with shiny bras and comrades-in-arms who take it rather literally.

Yawn.

Beware.

In fact, where I just (eventually) picked up Grand Explorer Sherry Rat from already had some similarities with this.

Perspective can be a wonderful thing!

Yikes! The amount of money I spent on a small box there's just no way I could fill a house that big...

Still, wigmakers may like to reconstruct David Hasselhoffs chest and head pieces...

Dear God. That sounds like something Hannibal Lecter would push to the side of his plate...

I haven't seen part 2 yet (had to tape it as playing D&D) but I thought part 1 was an interesting mix of "what might have happened had the Cylons evolved 40 years on" and "the former storyline". It was a bit slow, granted, but not dull. I don't think Starbuck works as a girl, the new Vipers look pretty much the same as the old to me and the Cylon android is just silly - but you are right about the demographic, I remember them confessing much the same when it aired in the States.

"Watch the old series on DVD first because you'll never want to go back," said Radio Times. Um, no. I prefer the originals, camp or no. But I think I'll still watch the miniseries when it airs - coz it's different, innit?
