Being a Sci Fi kid (born 1973) I grew up on the original series but never took this one in. Is it work watching??

You don’t know what you’re missing. It really is the best show on television, actually the only thing I care to watch. The old show was terrible in comparison. THe new show is quite dark, morbid, has very good acting and the bad guys are flat out freaky bad, but some quite foxy...

You can buy the new version pilot movie, and 3 previous seasons on DVD. The pilot movie was very good, start there. You’ll be hooked.

Ok, this best sums up the diference between the old and new series. I think you’ll get a kick out of it...

YESSSSSS!!!!! I am so looking forward to this. The SciFi Channel will muff a few punts, but they make up for it with stuff like the reimagined Galactica. Good show. I kinda miss the old SciFi 1.0, tho - Mystery Science Theater 3000 (which, BTW, is gearing up for a new movie with both Joel and Mike!!!), and SciFi Buzz. Harlan Ellison was (and is!!!!) a crank of legendary proportions, but he was fun to watch.
