if anyone's intrested there's a site that has seen a rough cut of the series. I don't know why I care this much, but I did enjoy the original show.
http://www.cylon.org/bsg2003/remake-review-01.htmlthis is his explinatin of what the new series is like:
"To understand the new Battlestar Galactica series you have to understand who this production is meant for, or rather, who its not for. If you are under the age of 12, over the age of 25, or have spent more than 72 hours in any military service, this production might not hold much appeal for you. If you have strong conservative views, heart-felt religious views, or consider yourself a loyal fan of the original Battlestar Galactica then this show may offend you. If you're between the ages of 13-24, like MTV-level displays of sex and flashy screen tricks and don't really think through the subliminal implications of storylines, you'll probably enjoy this production quite a bit.
