Who is killing everyone on the Raptor anyways?

So here we are after months of no Battlestar Galactica our first new content..HURRAY.

Yes, Lt. Gaeta is gay – ok so what? It’s a simple 2 second kiss in passing and it is totally natural in the flow of the show.

Beyond that revelation of Gaeta’s orientation what have we so far? Well we’ve got the basics for an interesting trip. Gaeta stuck on a Raptor that is lost with Grace Park (two of ’em), not that it matters to Gaeta as we now know – he’s not interested.

But let’s all hope that at some point during the 10 webisodes – we hear Felix Gaeta sing

Ron Moore’s Virtuality gets backburnered December 12, 2008

Ron Moore’s Battlestar Galactica days may be numbered but it doesn’t look like he’s a golden boy for everything.

FOX apparently is pushing back on Moore’s Virtuality show that we first wrote about back in April. Basically its a ship in long duration flight – with a crew have virtual reality experiences throughout the journey.

According to the Hollywood Reporter:
The two-hour backdoor sci-fi pilot “Virtuality,” might stay in consideration for May and be reworked as a more mainstream drama.

Remember friends – this is FOX. The same network that killed Firefly and is now butchering Sarah Connor Chronicles…so i suppose we didn’t have much cause to be hopeful in the first place.

Starbuck (aka not a cylon) is our fav character on Battlestar Galactica.

Apparently Sci Fi Channel wants viewers to look at her chest –

that is if this new teaser add for the new season is any indication.

New season starts in two week – and the webisodes start tomorrow (Dec 12th) at Noon ET on SciFi.com!!

Battlestar Galactica Caprica gets Ordered by Sci Fi Channel December 3, 2008

Ok so maybe we were a little hasty in calling Caprica dead the other week.

Sci Fi channel has now ordered 20 hours of the Battlestar Galactica prequel. Originally it was supposed to have a pilot this month but now it looks like that pilot will show up sometime in 2009 with the full series likely to debut in 2010.

The pilot trailer looks like frakking crap to me – but hey with 20 hours now booked – maybe they can build this up and actually make this as cool as BSG itself.

Set 50 years before “Battlestar Galactica,” “Caprica” follows two rival families — the Graystones and the Adamas — as they grow, compete, and thrive in the vibrant world of the 12 Colonies, a society recognizably close to our own.  Enmeshed in the burgeoning technology of artificial intelligence and robotics that will eventually lead to the creation of the Cylons, the two houses go toe-to-toe blending action with corporate conspiracy and sexual politics. “Caprica” will deliver all of the passion, intrigue, political backbiting and family conflict in television’s first science fiction family saga. As the series begins, a startling development is about to occur — the creation of the first cybernetic life-form node or “Cylon” — the ability to marry artificial intelligence with mechanical bodies. Joseph Adama (Morales)  — father of future “Battlestar” commander William Adama (Najafi) — a renowned civil liberties lawyer, becomes an opponent of the experiments undertaken by the Graystones (Stoltz), owners of a large computer corporation that is spearheading the development of these living robots: the Cylons.

Battlestar Galactica Season 4.5 Webisodes Start Dec. 12 December 1, 2008

Just as the case the last two half season – we’re going to get 10 webisodes this time around.
The official title of the Webisode series is, “The Face of the Enemy,” and Felix Gaeta is the major character.

There is also rumor that the webisodes will ‘out’ Gaeta as he is expected to have a real ‘male bonding” scene with another male character.

Not sure this will be as interesting as the flashback stuff we had prior to season 4 when we saw the younger Adama – Husker – kick Cylon arse – that was cool. Oh and don’t forget the season 3.5 webisode’s Resistance where we saw the going-ons of new Caprica.

Until we see what’s going on with Earth and the final Cylon – not sure that anything else really matters for Battlestar Galactica.

Battlestar Galactica Caprica on Hold till 2009 (or later) November 27, 2008

It’s December almost and we were supposed to see the Battlestar Galactica prequel Caprica this month. (We saw the trailer back in July.)

But we won’t and that sucks.

According to TV Guide : “Though Sci Fi once planned to air Caprica in December, it’s now on hold, pending the final episodes of Battlestar Galactica. It definitely won’t see the light of day until after the BSG series finale … but also maybe not at all.”

In honor of the final season of Battlestar Galactica this is a great year to put out a cylon pumpkin!

It’s not quite as hard as you’d think either – it’s a matter of sketching out the shape of the cylon helmet and carving it out. Then you just need the LED…well maybe it’s a little more complex.

Luckily there is a pretty great tutorial with full specs on how to put it all together – just check it out on Evil Mad Scientist

 

Battlestar Galactica computer case mode – toast not included October 22, 2008

We’ve seen some cool case mods over the years – but this one – for a Battlestar Galactica computer case is one of the most unique.

What it does is make an average computer case look like a Colonial Battlestar complete with viper recovery bay.

The whole DIY exercise – is an excellent review on Bit-tech – Frankly it looks like a really challenging mod to pull off.

Not sure if there is a an aftermarket for this mod – but i bet there is – so i hope some entrepeneurs pick this up and start selling these all done.

Then again – I don’t think they’ve copyright licensing from MGM Universal to use the Battlestar Galactica name or trademarks – so likely you couldn’t sell this commercially without being sued.

Battlestar Galactica Season 4.5 Starts Jan. 16 October 16, 2008

Battlestar Galactica is coming back this January after a six month hiatus. Officially SciFi is still calling it Season 4 but how the Frak can they still call it the same season after a six month break?

That’s just wrong.

Calling it Season 5 i think would be more accurate – but in the spirit of past Battlestar Galactica ‘seasons’ lets split the difference and just call it Season 4.5

When we last saw our friend sin June they had just landed on Earth which was a desolate wasteland. So the big question is now what?

1)Clearly they’ll find the intelligence that brought them to Earth in the First place.

2) The Fifth Cylon will be revealed

3) President Roslyn will die

4) The cylon kids (six’s and Tyrol’s) are going to do something ‘interesting’

Everyone loves Battlestar Galactica right? especially NBC (Sci Fi Channel is an NBC Universal company after all. This week’s Office had a hilarious bit where Jim is trying to time all of the ‘personal’ time that Dwight takes at work – So Jim strikes up a conversation about Battlestar Galactica with a co-workers – getting all the facts wrong – to try and get Dwight to take the bait..

Must see TV!!

John Hodgeman is a PC Cylon Doctor September 24, 2008

John Hodgeman – you know the dude who does PC on the Apple commercial (and former staffer on John Stewart’s Daily Show) is coming to Battlestar Galactica.

Apparently he’s playing a doctor in an upcoming episode of Galactica. In an interview with Wired Hodgeman says:
Well, I always had this desire to celebrate and somehow be a part of things that I thought were really great. When I wrote about Battlestar Galactica for The New York Times Magazine in 2005, I was mainly geeking out about the fact that I was standing on the set, you know? So it was very unnerving and surreal to go from being the guy who wrote about Galactica to making a cameo appearance as a doctor in an upcoming episode.

Uh huh. Blue screen of death for the Cylons then – those toasters are scrap metal now.
