Synopsis: Battlestar Galactica - Season 1 (2004)
Synopis: An updating and re-imagining of the classic 1970s sci-fi television show, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA combines elements of STAR TREK, STAR WARS, and THE TERMINATOR. Human beings built the android Cylons to work as servants for them, only to have the robots rebel and disappear into space. A generation later, however, the Cylons returned to destroy their former masters, and succeeded in eliminating the 12 worlds that mankind inhabited. Luckily, one group of people has managed to escape the genocide, lead by Commander William Adama (Edward James Olmos), on board the massive space ship called Battlestar Galactica. But the struggle isn't over, as the ruthless Cylons continue to pursue the ship and the last surviving members of the human race. This vision of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA features a darker tone and CGI special effects, and shares with other science fiction sagas a warning about the misuse of advanced technology.Features: Battlestar Galactica - Season 1 (2004)

Cons: Needs more exposure, discovered by accident
excellent sci-fi series, great liberties taken with orginal characters. One still doesn't know who the bad guys are yet.

Pros: well written, directed, and played
Cons: the suspense is killing me
Everything is right on this new version of Battlestar Galactica. From writing to directing to acting to set design, it is all belivable.
On set design: Like others point out, you belive that people actualy live there. Not just because theres a little dirt, but because the walls show signs of life. There are dents in the rails where some one might have droped something heavy. There is rust on panels. The paint is starting to crack and peel off in places because they haven't had time to re-decorate the walls. Lables on buttons are worn off from use. Theres bathrooms. (Thats the real indicator right there)
On acting: The charicters show signs of strain from being on the run for so long. The people make mistakes. They argue while forgetting that others are around because they are so pissed. They butt heads for athuority. They show emotion in situations. They deal with problems they don't think they can handle. They sacrifice for the good of all above themselves. After watching this show you will belive that you could walk up to any one of the charicters in person.
My main problem with this show is that they are not making them fast enough. It's like reading a book that takes you in fully while it's being written. You cant turn the page untill next week when more is done.
Excelant job to all those involved in this show. I can hardly contain myself waiting for next season now. Oh yeah, and 'Apollo' (Jamie Bamber) sounds kinda odd with out an American accent. One of those things you find out by watching the behind the scenes stuff on the disks. ...
