Do you know what this means? Look for a new Katie Sackhof statement to come within the next few days.

When it comes out, make sure to post it here. I'll lay very good odds you are right.

I'm sure she'll comment again about Dirk's hair.

Thanks for the link Ken.

I wonder if Bonnie has the *balls* to take this thing to a target audience before it's released.

You just gotta love the media sometimes....

When they smell smoke, they'll run to report the fire! That was a wonderful article - just what I needed!

Oh she will...but it will be an audience skewed to a positive approval. Basically young males under the age of 25. That way the proportion will be higher that they never saw Galactica. And younger males will care less about the story and will be more about spaceships and T&A. So it won't be an honest sampling.

Then she will use that as "proof" that EVERYONE loves battlestar Galactica.

She seems to forget, that her station runs on nostalgia scifi and heavy scifi buffs. And her audience almost entirely remembers Galactica.

Well, I built a fleetship. It's one of the ships you see in the banner above. It's built as close as possible to an original design.

Believe me, I had extreme misgivings about doing anything for that project, but since I was able to create an original design, I went ahead and did it.

I'm not sure if I should be getting 12 pieces of silver for this, or not. I feel that way sometimes, but at least an original design will make it to screen this way. Something.

I'll say this about the ship: It's really cool, and when the series finally airs, I'll post some pics of it on my website. But, until then, I can't show anything.

That was an excellent article. I sure wish the
trailer was on line and as for Katie What's her name ..........
I could care less about what she has to say because if
she truelly thinks this will help her career ........she's WRONG.
