3/21/2012 4:28:23 PM

Ahhhhh so excited! My fiancé and I have been re-watching the series over the last couple of weeks. We're on season 3 now.

"Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome may get demoted back to being a webseries No new Battlestar Galactica on your television screens? That's a possibility, according to AOL TV's Maureen Ryan. Syfy is considering turning its latest Battlestar Galactica prequel, Blood and Chrome, back into a webseries. When Blood and Chrome was originally commissioned, back in July 2010, the plan was for it to be a webseries of nine or ten episodes of around 10 minutes each, shot in greenscreen. Then, around the time Syfy pulled the plug on Caprica, the network decided to air Blood and Chrome as a TV movie — and as a possible backdoor pilot that could lead to a new series. Now Syfy has seen an early cut of the TV movie, without most of the visual effects completed — and they're thinking of turning it back into a webseries, the network's EVP Mark Stern told Ryan. Stern said that a decision on Blood and Chrome's release date was not imminent, and it was still a possibility that they would air it as a TV movie/backdoor pilot. But they're seriously considering transforming it back into a series of webisodes. (It's a bad sign that Syfy doesn't automatically consider this production as worthy of TV-movie status as, say, Killer Mountain. Or Mega-Python Vs. Gatoroid. Etc. etc.) Blood and Chrome follows William Adama as a young man, fighting in the first Cylon war and learning the hard lessons of combat and sacrifice. He's ordered to escort a young woman, who turns out to know some vitally important Cylon secrets. We read a ton of script pages a while back and we were pretty happy with the BSG-ish feel of the thing. But on the other hand, an argument could be made for letting the BSG universe stay off the air for a few years, so it could be brought back with a bigger bang down the line. That could be part of the calculation that's going on here. [AOL TV] "

Guess they don't want this interfering with RASSLIN!

Fuck SyFy. SciFi was where it was at. No BSG, No Stargate, pulling the plug on Eureka. Warehouse 13 is about the only decent show left on the damned channel.

3/22/2012 10:30:14 AM

so caprica gets a legit show but blood and chrome doesnt? makes perfect sense.

3/22/2012 12:16:28 PM

Caprica sucked.

3/22/2012 3:38:59 PM

I watched the first episode of caprica and hated it!

3/22/2012 5:00:20 PM

No, I gave it up until its midseason break (after they had decided to cancel it) I wanted to like it, but man, it was bad.

3/22/2012 5:01:24 PM

on paper blood and chrome is a much much better idea, but caprica got picked up was my point.

3/22/2012 6:24:52 PM

i didn't even finish caprica... it was terrible.

I'd like to go back and re-watch BSG... it's been a while.

3/23/2012 2:04:00 PM

dont. its alot worse than you remember

3/23/2012 2:24:06 PM

OH SHIT SON!!! I hope the actual show is going to look as cool as the trailer makes it out to be. Lots of cool fx. I just hope it doesn't die or suck really bad.

And yeah, I couldn't even get past the first few episodes of Caprica. And SGU was the suxors

3/23/2012 3:19:12 PM

SGU got good.

Also, this has already been cancelled (might survive as a web series)

3/23/2012 4:07:28 PM

it was decent, but out of all of the SG's it sucked. But you have to be out of the SG frame of mind to actually enjoy it. I still watched it, I'm just pissed that they left it so open ended when they ended season 2.

3/23/2012 4:14:36 PM

I actually liked SGU more than SGA. It got so formulaic and repetitive. I thought SGU was a nice change of pace for the SG series. And yes it got very good.

3/23/2012 4:42:00 PM

I'm watching BSG for the first time. Just a couple episodes every weekend.



SPOILERPOSTING








I had to take a couple weeks off after Billy died. I cried.

3/23/2012 4:54:26 PM

SGU sucked. it didnt get better.

SGA owned until it got off track in parts of the later seasons with michael and what not. that shit kinda sucked. even then they managed some good eps.

sgu just had boring characters and boring plots and took itself way too serious. i mean come the fuck on. no one believes the lucian alliance, the elmer fudd of stargate, is all of a sudden this super smart and organized force. it was really fucking bad.

3/23/2012 4:54:32 PM

Yeah, SGA got a bit weird and their season 4 and 5 went to shit.

But the premise of being lost 700 billion light years on a ship is really far fetched, even for scifi standards. They could have made it totally better than it was, but it was nice that they were at least attempting to change the repetitiveness shooting style and storytelling. Don't get me wrong, it was entertaining, but nothing from the show yells out "watch me again!".

Since SGU went down, there really hasn't been a truely good all space/scifi show. Unless I've completely missed something. (why can't they make a new firefly series??!?! lol)


I'm hoping they make a damn new startrek series soon... Its getting to that time of the generation for something; specially since the revival of the movies. Would love to see something past the time line of voyager and DS9; or maybe something concurrent but a different point of view... but not caprica style... fuck that

3/23/2012 4:54:59 PM

also not a fan of the blood and chrome trailer. another bad cover is not the way to start.

3/23/2012 4:56:02 PM

Fringe is good if you're looking for sci-fi. if you need a nathan fillion fix castle is really good.

3/23/2012 4:57:33 PM

I thought the trailer was awesome

[Edited on March 23, 2012 at 5:13 PM. Reason : .]

3/23/2012 5:13:05 PM

Yeah, I watch Fringe, but not a space techy scifi flick, still good for x-files replacement; yup, love me castle. He really needs to push for firefly 2 or something... lol

I just wonder if the "web episodes" are going to be worth if since they'll only be 10mins long; almost makes it worth wild if it was just a short movie or do like they did with last BSG, just make it a 2 part mini series.

3/23/2012 8:30:30 PM

^ from what i've read, they're still going to air the pilot. They're just not going to make a tv series out of it.

Blood & Chrome, starring Luke Pasqualino (The Borgias) and Ben Cotton (Alcatraz), will premiere on the young male-skewing Machinima's YouTube channel, Machinima Prime, beginning Friday. The film will be broken up into 10, seven- to 12-minute episodes online until February and will remain on Machinima until April.

11/6/2012 12:40:20 PM

Nice. Will watch.

11/6/2012 2:04:11 PM

All this is going to do is piss me off that it wasn't made into a full length tv series.

11/6/2012 2:07:39 PM

ehhh... really not a fan of them releasing it in 10 7-12 minute "episodes." Just release the damn thing.

11/6/2012 4:53:16 PM

wait this bullshit is YOUTUBE series? fuck that.

11/6/2012 6:57:16 PM

I got sick last year and was bed ridden for a few months. I came across BSG marathon and was immediately hooked. It was a great series, and would love to see a follow up (or prequel). But not a web-series.

I am all about some BSG

11/9/2012 11:32:15 AM

There is a prequel series (TV), called Caprica. It's not nearly as good as BSG though.

11/9/2012 11:57:54 AM

Haven't see the first episode yet, but someone told me that they used the theme music from the original TV show. If so, I am going to be thrilled.

11/9/2012 1:35:59 PM

I am a fan of it so far, although the whole background noise to cover someone cursing is odd.

11/9/2012 10:50:18 PM

Wow, I am loving this. Coker has already become one of my favorite characters. I am going to be SO pissed if they kill him...

11/16/2012 8:44:39 AM

Fuck syfy for not picking this up, all their shows suck ass. (except maybe warehouse 13)

11/16/2012 8:44:37 PM

^^coker didn't last long in the comic books, so he is bound to be a goner soon.

11/16/2012 9:13:19 PM

I don't think Lt. I have a son is going to make it

Also, the commander has to be Admiral Cain.

11/17/2012 12:40:43 AM

The first half of the first episode was bland. I was about to give up on the series. Glad I continued watching because I'm hooked!

11/17/2012 2:48:54 AM

Huh? Cain would be a little kid at this time.

11/17/2012 9:27:39 AM

Just caught up, and thought it was pretty decent. I'll continue to check it out.

11/17/2012 8:28:57 PM

Just made it to the 4th season of BSG. love it.

12/10/2012 6:02:14 PM

I believe it's season four that has the finale that is one of my favorite (if not my favorite) finales of all time.

12/10/2012 6:33:09 PM

Absolutely loved the ending to this. I want more!

12/12/2012 9:49:54 PM

I just watched the finale. I, too, enjoyed it and would like more.

12/12/2012 10:24:35 PM

Considering this was filmed 2 years ago, I don't think you'll be getting more.

12/12/2012 10:39:48 PM

I just got through watching this and it was sooooo good. I really wish this would push a reboot
