Battlestar Galactica: The Great Ratings Debate

The great debate is on. No, not the debate between the American Presidential hopefuls, the debate on just how popular is Battlestar Galactica?

According to the AC Nielsen Rankings, BSG is a bust at this point. The show had approximately 2.8 million viewers in it’s first season. Then seasons 2 and 3 posted less than favorable numbers. At the onset of season 4, BSG was back in business with 2.2 million viewers. And finally, by the time the mid season finale hit, the viewer ship had reached a seemingly dismal 1.8 viewers.

According to TV history, BSG should by all rights be dead in the water. However, recent news says otherwise. We now know that there are 10 webisodes, the back half of season 4 and a TV movie yet to come. Additionally, we know a...

Happy 1st Birthday BSG Pilots!

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of BSG Pilots! Born out of the determination and passion of Admiral Adalla, BSG Pilots has become a home away from home for many fans and curious on lookers alike. The site gives many of us an outlet for our dedication and passion for the show and has also spawned many friendships that will undoubtedly transcend the end of the show.

On this day I would personally like to extend my thanks to Admiral Adalla for his realized vision of creating this site and I extend a heart felt thank you to every friend here that has helped enrich my BSG experience with their thoughts and conversation about the show. Please feel free to convey any sentiments you have on this day to our Admiral or fellow pilots. I am proud to serve with you all here at BSG Pilots!

It's A Revival!

With the long hiatus of Battlestar Galactica in full swing perhaps it is time to give our members and guests a reason to come "home." There are many features to this site that I know aren't used to their fullest potential. Features such as galleries, downloads and videos to name a few.

In the next few days or weeks TighFighter and myself will be looking to set up some chat events in our beloved but recently neglected Launch Tube chat room.

We have over 370 different forum topics going on right now. I would emplore everyone here to make a concentrated effort to revive, respond to or update any of those 370 threads. It's often too easy to just let a thread die out of the blue and for no apparent reason. Just because it's old news doesn't mean it can't be revisited and updated for the masses.

BSGP Fleet News Service Editors Choice
- Best BSG Space Battle Fan Vid

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk3Pl8cVBW0

This fan vid is created by YouTube user bigmil91, a fellow Italian. It is one of a series of 7 fan vids. This vid has made the Editor's Choice for extraordinary matching of music to scenes and capturing the glory that is Battlestar Galactica space combat. We hope you enjoy this video and appreticate the revolutionary Visual Effects that many believe are the best that have ever graced television (and some believe ALL visual effects to this date).

Pay close attention to how well the music matches the scenes. Top notch sections are 3:33 to 3:57, 4:51 to 5:08,

5:43 to well...the end of the vid. Truly extraordinary music/scene matching.

Enjoy!

Where's The "Battlestar" Cast Now?

Since the demise of our beloved Battlestar Galactica is upon us I thought it would be nice to know where our new favorite actors were headed after the series finale hits in the spring of '09. Stay tuned to BSG Pilots for the latest, as more becomes available on your favorite BSG actor.

Jamie Bamber has reportedly been working with Ronald Moore and James Callis to direct 5 of the 10 soon to come webisodes. After that Jamie is headed back to England to have a run in Britain's answer to one of America's longest running crime dramas. Bamber tells Buddy TV, "I'm doing a series in England called Law & Order:...
