Now Screening - What Are You Watching Right Now?

[MartinT]

I agree with others that BG is the kind of series that only happens once in a decade. A fully realised and realistic universe where technology is not the solution to everything. Much psychological debate and fascinating characters.

A special mention for Mary McDonnell, whom I've always thought of as a great actress ever since Dancing With Wolves.

I like Caprica so far, but when will the series be continued?

P.S. never mind about Six, what about Grace Park (Boomer)? Currently enjoying her in Hawaii Five-0.

Boomer was nice but she got a bit annoying at times, so I marked her down for that.

I have to say my fav(s) was Starbuck and President Milf

and how stupid is this :
On October 27, 2010, Syfy canceled the show, citing low ratings, and pulled the remaining five episodes of the series from its broadcast schedule

Well i must admit that the mini series held my attention vastly more than "The Plan" even though it was only a DVD to The Plan being on blu ray I nearly managed to watch the whole lot last night (& once i got into it i really wanted to ) but i had to hit the sack before i passed out

So can anyone explain what the mini series was about? What i mean is, is the mini series a much smaller version of what the whole 5 seasons of BSG is about? IE kind of massively condensed?

Or is it a prequel?

[MartinT]

No, the miniseries is set just before S1 Ep.1 (so yes a prequel) and creates the setting for the story to continue. Now you need to buy the full five series!

Forget The Plan, it was a bad idea and barely holds together.

[Reid Malenfant]

Cheers Martin, that's the information i needed to make an informed decision

[MartinT]

S1 Ep.1 is called 33" (33 minutes) and is an absolute doozie. A great way to start a great series. I wish I was seeing it for the first time.
