Battlestar Galactica "mini series"

[Jim Clark]

anyone else piss away four hours of their life on this alleged mini series? For starters since when does two parts equal a mini series? That was the miniest mini series of all time. I thought things were trucking along just fine and when I tuned off the KU game to check out the third installment I was greeted with "The Night Flier". WTH? That was the ending Tuesday night? You've got to be kidding me. If this was promoted as a pilot I could understand but it wasn't and I have no idea if there are any plans or not.

Visually the show was fine and the actors did a good job. I didn't even really mind the drastic departures from the original series although I'm not sure that castrating Starbuck served much of a purpose. I think the audio was severely lacking. There was so much potential for really cool effects especially during the many battle scenes but I found it had no impact regardless of the volume. Maybe the DVD will sound better but I sure as heck am not about to spend the time/money to find out.

Tons of potential-came up way short in my opinion.
