Ich fand das Ende auch sehr unbefriedigend

Spoiler

Es kam mir irgendwie ohne wirklich Aufklärung daher, vor allem das Motto:
"And they have a plan" wird völlig ignoriert und am Ende fragt man sich nur, was zum Teufel soll denn nur dieser Plan sein sollte. Neinnein, da hätte man wirklich mehr draus machen können :/

Trotzdem eine super Serie

Battlestar Galactica: Cylon War Prequel Greenlit

Syfy will explore more of the life of William Adama, as they've greenlit Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome, a TV Movie pilot for a potential ongoing series. A few months back, news broke that Syfy was developing a webseries focused on Adama, during the events of the first human/cylon war, but AOL TV's Maureen Ryan (the first to hear about the webseries) now reveals the network has decided the project should be made for TV.

Michael Taylor, a veteran of both Battlestar Galactica and Caprica, wrote the script to Blood & Chrome, which Ryan says will take place in the tenth year of the Cylon War, as recent Academy graduate Adama and a fellow rookie pilot take a female character on an important mission that could turn the tide of the war.

Syfy's Mark Stern tells Ryan, "When we read Michael's script, it was so clearly a full-blown pilot for a series. The scope is fantastic and bigger, I think, than anticipated, so we said, 'Let's do it as a 2-hour backdoor pilot.' ... We're trying to get up and running as soon as possible."

Blood & Chrome won't air until at least the fourth quarter of 2011, though a 2012 debut is more likely, especially if the project goes from TV-Movie to full fledged series.

Yes, the Battlestar Galactica itself will be seen in Blood & Chrome. While the Galactica sets were torn down when BSG ended, they were all digitally scanned beforehand, so they could be used to create virtual sets down the line, for potential projects like this one.

Stern describes Blood & Chrome to Ryan as, "very much an action-adventure, war series. This is definitely dealing with people who are fighting the fight. ... As you hope Battlestar would do, it kind of comments on that process a little bit... but not in a preachy way, not in an issues-oriented way, not in a hitting-you-over-the-head way. Really, the fabric and the canvas of the series are people in the fight and what they grapple with when it comes to each other and what they grapple with when it comes to the enemy they're fighting."

While BSG veterans Taylor, David Eick, Bradley Thompson and David Weddle are all involved in Blood & Chrome, Battlestar's main creative force, Ron Moore, has no official role. The situation is a bit difficult, in that Moore now has a new deal with Sony (the BSG franchise remains with Universal), but Stern tells Ryan that he hopes Moore could be involved in Blood and Chrome, should it become an ongoing series.

Edward James Olmos of course played the older Adama on Battlestar, while Sina Najafi plays the child "Willie" Adama on Caprica. However, we did get flashbacks to a Cylon war era Adama in Battlestar Galactica: Razor, where he was played by Nico Cortez. Speaking as to whether Cortez might reprise the role, Stern tells Ryan, "I'm assuming there will be a full casting process for this pilot, but with Nico at the top of the list."

As for the fate of Caprica, which has yet to be renewed, Stern reiterated recent statements that Syfy will make a decision by November 15th, but vowed, "To be really categorical about it, this is not about finding something else so we can get rid of Caprica. I don't know the fate of Caprica yet, but, if anything, Blood & Chrome going to series would only be a great opportunity to pair it with something."

Stern says there is the opportunity in Blood & Chrome to feature other characters from both Battlestar Galactica and Caprica.
