I am personally against it despite Sam Esmail’s involvement (I really liked Mr. Robot). It’s not that I don’t think it could be a good show, it’s that NBC has plenty of other properties from former science fiction shows they could redevelop, but they’re redeveloping this one instead.

If they want to reboot a show for the third time, why not V considering the first reboot was so disappointing? Or maybe go for the 90s nostalgia and reboot SeaQuest DSV or Earth 2.

And then there’s all the Sci-Fi Channel/SyFy properties they have at least some stake of ownership in.

I realize asking for something original is asking too much these days, but can’t we at least do something other than Battlestar Galactica every 20 years?

I’m willing to be open-minded and give the show a chance if it gets produced, but I don’t think it should be produced in the first place.

    3rd time… Everyone forgets Galactica 1980.

      That was a sequel, not a reboot. And it wasn’t even really a sequel. It was a next season that they slashed the budget massively for, recast and retitled. Also, it’s best forgotten.

        That was the classic “Oh Fuck! No Budget! Time travel to LA!” move. See also, Picard, season two, though I wonder if that was more to do with the cast not wanting to deal with sci-fi shit.
