Is anyone giving "Melrose Place in Space" another chance this year? I'm letting other people tell me if it's worth pursuing.

Man, a little drama makes sci-fi easier to follow for a lot of people, but I turn to the genre because I like lasers and robots. Love triangle I can get on network TV for free.

It's supposedly going out pretty intensely for the final season ...
... then again, I rarely trust critics

I avoided it because it's like a space soap, as I did Stargate: Atlantis. And I was a big fan of the original BSG.

Bah, I've streamed the first two episodes of the new season durin some down-time. The human side of the story is total crap, but the robots are doing interesting things.

They really fucked that story up when they decided to make the robots as humans.

Plus the robots were now created by man which is also total bullshit. In the original they were created by a different race.

On TV Guide you can stream many of the old episodes. They call them full episodes but they usually have the last few minutes cut off. Assholes.

I completely avoided the new BSG until recently when I tried watching a couple of episodes online and it completely sucks ass.

I think the whole thing with the robots being human and several copies of the same person filling in different concurrent story lines was just to make the show cheaper to make. Fewer people to pay and fewer props and effects required.

Adds up to Total Bullshit.
