Quick OT reply.......
BSG = Battlestar Galactica
(No, not the cheesy old one from the 70s, with the guy from Bonanza, this is the new & improved one.)
A "re-imagining" based on the original series.
And far, far, superior to the original.
Critically acclaimed, loved by fans, a joy to watch.
It is the best SciFi series...better than the Treks, B5, Stargate, etc.
And, not only is it the best SciFi show, it is also possibly *the best* thing on TV at the moment IMO...drama, action, adventure. It surpasses 24, Lost, & even the excellent Prison Break. The only other show I hold in as high regard at the moment is Rome. [BSG & Rome > Prison Break > 24 > Lost ]
Even people who don't normally like SF should watch BSG...it's so much more than just a "science fiction" series.
There's been: a 3 hour pilot (miniseries of 2 x 1 1/2 hour parts), a 13 episode 1st season, a 20 episode 2nd season, 10 "webisodes" ("Battlestar Galactica: The Resistance") bridging the gap between s2 & s3, and a 3rd season currently up to episode 4 (UK) & episode 12 (US).
