   It was utter garbage not even remotely worth watching, and certainly   
   not "Battlestar Galatica" ... more like an over-serious, over-sexed,   
   dismal parody of the proper original show.

   So it's not a "reboot" (as said above) at all, but simply a spin-off show.

   And both will be more utter garbage not remotely worth watching.   
      
      
      
   > Now, you might be wondering, what will the new series be about?   
      
      
   Nope. Don't give a damn ... it's utter gabage that simple craps all   
   over the original show - the show that is the *real* "Battlestar   
   Galactica".  :o(
