Good to hear from you Tracy. Any word on if Dirk's overcome the inertia between himself and his next bit of writing? (has he set pen to paper or fingers to keyboard yet? Or if you are any closer to the audiobook order for the "Fishing" book?

Hi Jewels,
Well for those who haven't heard, Dirk's first book "Confessions of a Kamikaze Cowboy" was dropped by Penguin/Putnam which means that, for now, both books are out of print. He's working on lining up another publisher. The news of the book being dropped has given him a new motivation to pick up the pen for book 3  Audio book is still in limbo as he'd have to publish *that* one himself which takes alot of commitment and moolah.
Sorry haven't been around in a long while, but with my getting a new PC, waiting for graphics software so I can update my site with all those gorgeous cruise photos ( droooool, slobber ) and reports, and RL being hectic, I need an extra hour in the day
Hope everyone is well on the board
Tracy

Hi Conundrum7g,
The way I read the poll is 38.58 percent are fans of the new BG and an additional 8.57 percent are potential fans (I am taking "enh" to mean they could go either way). My little positive spin on things....and boy am I dizzy.

"Old show okay and would support its revival but Love the NEW show!"
I was being generous towards the old show. It made me smile when I was 12.

Hmmmmm, I think there might be a bit of a misconception concerning the results of the poll. People who really like the series just dont post here very much. I hope a high quality revival movie is produced but for me there is no comparison between the old show and the new. The old was a wonderful space fantasy with characters which reflected the 1970s entertainment industry. The new series is hard scifi inspired by authors like Bruce Sterling, Ken MacLeod, and Gregory Benford, and the characters reflect the entertainment industry of 2003 rather than 1970.
Fans of the new series have gotten over the hurdle of waiting for confirmation, the tension was horrible on the pro-mini boards. That cant compare to the tension of fans who have been waiting decades for the word on a revival production! And darn it, now I am interested in a revival too, and have to deal with the tension again! 
But heck, its just fantasy. If we have to wait another ten years the technology will be so advanced we can make our own revival movies on our PCs! |

Should I side with Battlestar Galactica or a show that calls it's self Battlestar Galactica or maybe even both. To be honest I just have no interest in the mini no mater what they call it. The fact that we waited 25 years to get a slap in the face, has me picking number 1.
I am happy for those that fell in love with the mini because they are now getting more of it. Just because I dislike it, it doesn't mean others should too.
I mean no disrespect to the mini supporters but I got kind of a chuckle after reading posts on the sci fi board about how the mini fans kept the faith and it paid off.
The only reason why I chuckled is because we the original fans have kept the Battlestar Galactica faith for 25 years. So much so that it became feasible to bring the show back once more but sci fi decides to turn their backs on the very people that made the buzz to bring it back in the first place.
But that's water under the bridge. I hope the series based on the mini turns out to be the great show that those fans want.
I on the other hand am focusing on a continuation. If we keep doing all the work we have been doing for the last 25 years, Maybe this time next year we will be rewarded with a gardening show or a Galactica cook book. LMAO.
