Interesting concept of remaking the series, it was one of my favorites when I was a young tyke.
Interesting choices for casting too. As a Canadian, its difficult to visualize anyone but the late, great Lorne Greene as Adama, but Edward James Almos is definitely a respectable choice.
The one that really got me is the recasting of the Starbuck character as a woman! If memory serves me correctly, the original Starbuck was played by Dirk Benedict and he was a hard drinking, cigar chomping, brawling, womanizing gambler!
Should make for interesting viewing, providing a channel will carry it here in the Czech Republic.
