Dawg,

Welcome to CF, the Galactica BBoard.

In response to you comments, my experience has been that most fans of the original would like to see a continuation with some of the original stars again portraying their original characters, plus some new characters, in a show that honors and is true to the original series, completely ignoring the non-events of Galactica 1980.

People who saw the original but didn't like it are much more likely to favor a re-imagining a la Ron Moore, basically an overwrite of the entire original series. Unfortunately, Mr. Moore poisoned the water with some statements that appear not exactly truthful, and his ego has made him basically spit in the faces of fans of the original who want it to continue.

Some of us are willing to accept a prequel written such that the history and themes of the original are maintained intact. In any event, since most people agree that there were episodes of the original series that were not as well written as they should have been, most of us are looking for a well-written, well-acted show.

Look forward to seeing you around.

Lucian
