Another Battlestar Galactica Spinoff in the Works at Syfy?

By Allie Townsend | @Allie_Townsend | March 16, 2010 | +

Apparently, Syfy’s not done spinning its BSG web.

Syfy exec Mark Stern told The Hollywood Reporter that the network plans to order yet another Battlestar spinoff series, saying:

“We’re looking for other ways to spin off Battlestar beyond Caprica. That world is so rich. We’re sitting down with (executive producer) Ron Moore and his team. It would not necessarily be a traditional series.”

He also told THR that the odds of Caprica’s renewal for a second season was hopeful, noting that ratings have hit a series high with 1.6 million viewers.

It certainly sounds like Syfy has quite a bit up their sleeves, and the BSG train isn’t showing signs of stopping. Will you watch yet another spinoff?

You Can Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S III Now, but It’ll Cost You

It’s “friggin’ huge,” as my colleague Jared Newman recently quipped, and Samsung’s Galaxy S III is also going to be friggin’ expensive if you’re in the U.S. and want firsties. While the phone’s stateside launch date is still “early June,” Amazon has started taking pre-orders for the international version.

It depends. If it’s in the past, no. If it’s about angels, no. If it’s another ship that survived, yes. If Baltar dies on Earth and wakes up as a cylon on another ship, definitely.

Based on the current attempt, no, never, nada, don’t care.
They need a strike-team of geeks and a thousand monkeys on typewriters to make Craprica better than it is.
I don’t think they can figure it out. As long as they stayed close to the plot of the original show, it was great. But when they strayed, and really looked at the political and metaphysical, they lost me (and many, many others I am sure).
No offense to those of you who love this show. I…just…don’t.
