Wow, just got my new copy of Sound & Vision (a popular audio/video enthusiast magazine) and guess what I saw? A full page, full color ad for Battlestar Galactica The Original Epic Series DVD Box Set! Excellent Uni! With a large readership of willing DVD buyers either looking for or upgrading their home theatre systems (and continually on the hunt for good DVDs to show them off), that's some well placed advertising.

Interestingly, 98% of the ad is for the DVDs, with a little corner advertising the mini. Sounds like somebody at Uni is in tune with what the likely money-winner will be. I wonder, will there be more people to pay $80+ for the original than will tune in to the mini for free? Certainly, by the look of how the ad real estate is laid out, somebody at Uni thinks so. Yes, there are tons of us who remember and will gladly pay to see it again!

Thank you Uni for acknowledging the fandom of this beloved show. We have more $'s for ya! Any takers for a big screen continuation? :)

Affectionately,
Muffit

I'll take one big screen continuation, please. I will go back to the theater and see it multiple times, with many friends.

What viperman said. :)

I ran into someone today--My Dr.-- who's husband saw the ad and instantly said "I want this for Christmas." Yes I warned her not to watch "that thing in December". ;)

HEY UNIVERSAL
forget about the 13 - 20 teeny bopper
demografics i am 39 and guess what i have money
to spend he**ll i have money to waste as do
most people in my poor decrepid age group
so if you want my money give me what i want

most people under 30 dont give a dam**N
about tv it takes at least 30 years for most
to become enough of a nerd to care
i know my wife is 23 and laughs her a$$$
off about all this

so forget trying to take pennies
from children and go for the big bucks
from the adults
