1. Welcome to our forum. Feel free to discuss anything related to science fiction; in particular our great science fiction series. But we're open to all sorts of relevant subjects, because we'd like you to hang out and enjoy yourselves.

    About Rockoids II: As some of you know, co-author Grayson Steinberg now lives and works in Madrid, and hence only visits his family during the summer months. Last summer, Gene and Grayson completed Book II, at last, and resumed work on Book III, about which you'll hear more soon. Book II is in final production form, and we await the new cover design. We'll then offer it for sale. Thanks for your patience.

    I caught part of the premiere. It looks great. I'll have to watch the rest online. Anyone else catch it?

    Actually, yes. It was first released in DVD format last year, and I got to see it then, and again as the premiere episode. It's a promising beginning for the Battlestar Galactica prequel. I recommend it.

    Just watched the rest of the premiere. I'm hooked. I'll try to watch every week.

    And if you don't have a DVR, you can always watch the repeat. There are at least a couple (I've lost track as to how SyFy schedules these things). :)

    I've seen two episodes so far and the show is great. It is interesting to see where the monotheistic Cylon beliefs in Battlestar got their start.

    I am concerned that early ratings aren't quite what I was hoping to see. But we'll just have to see if they climb.

    That could be trouble. How bad are they?

    For the first post-pilot episode: 1.411 million viewers and a 0.5 share for the critical 18-49 age group. Not bad, but less than Sy-Fy has received for that time slot.

    One hopes it'll improve over time.

    I watched the season finale last night. Great cliff hanger. I hope they don't pull it.

    It looks like the ratings have gone up recently.
