Enterprise D was a radical departure though: this just looks like a bad fan design from the sketch.

BSG was a mainstay of my childhhod television experience, along with TOS, so if it is screwed up it will be sad....

What I don't understand is why would they want to redesign Galactica? As I understand, Vipers remained unchanged and we will be told that they are 'old' Vipers (and new types of fighters will be there, too), so why this reasoning could not be applied to the Galactica as well?
It's not like there's something wrong with Galactica design... To me, it still looks great and convincing.
(and Starbuck as a woman? Puhleeeze...)

Actually, the Vipers are partly redesigned too. They're not as sleek: thicker in the fuselage mainly. Also, the new Vipers are spotless- with wax coating. I shit you not: ZERO weathering. No grease, dirt or anything that could make the prop look actually "in use".
There's also an "advanced viper" tat looks a bit like Richard Hatch's Scarlett Viper.

Hi Guys I was just wondering why Ron Moore refuses to take BG from where it left off in 1978 but update from here forward instead up this stupid revision crap? Anybody hear on what his thinking is away, or is it that he had a idea for his own story new he couldn�t get I sold and instead he hijacked BG . Thanks

Probably because the 1978 show was nigh unwatchable, and he'd like to, you know, try and put out a watchable product. It being TV and all.

Partly, it's a fued between BG's owner (whose name I cant remember to save my life) and Richard Hatch (who's been pushing a fan film he produced that takes place 15 years after the series).
Hatch's version sounds a hell of a lot better and keeps the main characters around but older and Apollo's in charge after Adama went to the big Alpo commercial in the sky.
No hot female terminator Cylons though, so there'd be no sci-fi channel obligatory sex scenes to throw in for cheap ratings.

From "Broken Bow," we know that Vulcans do indeed have other pointy body parts. Or that the decontamination chamber is maintained at an invigorating 45 degrees Farenheit.

It's not that the decon chamber is cold, just that the decon gel is specially formulated for her pleasure.

I'm with jason, I like how the new show is looking. From the look of their web page, they're putting a lot of work to help us relate to it.
