Battlestar is back.....WITH SEXY NECROMANCERS!!!


Okay folks,

Ronald D. Moore of the great Battlestar Galactica Reboot has recently lost the spin off project, Caprica. That being said, the team behind Battlestar is still bringing us one more hopefully thread to carry on that frack-tackingly awesome legacy with "Blood & Chrome" a new upcoming miniseries/pilot.

That is all well and good, but as a rather large fan of Battlestar, i think perhaps its time has come. The show was fantastic, Caprica while enthralling, was unable to be the powerhouse that its precursor had been. My thoughts as to why such a unique show was canceled comes down to one thing. That magical element that allowed Battlestar Galactica to become what it was, was two things. Writing and Acting. It wasn't the sci-fi folks.

Although, Ronald D. Moore seems to agree with this hypothesis it would seem, rece
ntly during my scavenging throughout the intranet, I found what could quite possibly be the saving grace for any and all Battlestar addicts.

The show: 17th Precinct


The Cast: Jamie Bamber- Caolan Longstreet
James Callis- John
Tricia Helfer- Morgana


What is known:
Basically, Caprica 6 has returned to the screen as Morgana, a sexy, necromancing lady.
Baltar is back, and now he is a gruffy detective named John.
And then we have Apollo back on screen and perhaps leaving his insanely strong Brit accent as Caolan Longstreet...crime scene investigator in the Magical realm of the 17th Precinct.


Magic.......Battlestar..........gritty crime drama.....



Drools.



Oh and dont ye lowly internet readers forget, Ronald D. Moore is quite the fan of film noir. Ponder that my good friends.
