‘Battlestar Galactica’ Reboot From Sam Esmail Headed For NBCU’s Peacock Streaming Service

By Patrick Hipes
September 17, 2019 6:01am

The new NBCUniversal streaming service that the company said Tuesday would be called Peacock will launch in April 2020 with original content that includes series reboots from the NBCU library among its fare. That list includes the return of a sci-fi classic: a new Battlestar Galactica, billed as an original series from Mr. Robot and Homecoming executive producer Sam Esmail.

Not much is known about the premise, but we hear Esmail is a huge fan of BG and told NBCU brass it was high on a list of titles he wanted to tackle under the mega new four-year overall deal he closed at NBCU’s Universal Content Productions earlier this year.

NBCU’s Universal produced the original Glen A. Larson-created Battlestar Galactica series for ABC, and NBC Universal TV produced the successful Ronald D. Moore-commanded revamp that ran from 2004-2009 on the then-Sci-Fi Channel. We hear Esmail had been in touch with Moore, who blessed the idea of him taking on the franchise, because of Esmail’s passion for Moore’s version of the show.

It was an amazing show. It will be extremely tough to top it. However, just about everything gets rebooted these days. Even when BSG 2004 came to an end they were having discussions about making it into a theatrical film. Plus I think Sam Esmail is one of the best show runners working in TV right now. Supposedly this is something he truly wants to do. I feel like with him behind it the series could potentially be really good.

The Sci-Fi version was great until that pile of shit finale. I jokingly predicted they would rip off several episode of The Twilight Zone to end the series numerous times but I actually thought they would come up with something original or at least not cliched and bad. The whole "Gosh it's OUR Earth" thing was bad but then you throw in ghost/angel Starbuck and Baltar and Six somehow still being around in the present day Earth and the whole goofy montage of robots as a heavy handed "we're doomed again Cylons are coming" capper. That was way too much stupidity for any finale but BG had been pretty solid up until then.

Maybe Esmail will be able to finish the job better.

I've never seen the original, but I loved the reboot up until the ending. I hated that and what they did with Starbuck. I hope the re-reboot can do a better ending and better justice to Starbuck's character.

Not trying to diminish those awards but for those kinds of awards not a lot of competition.

I really enjoyed the series until about the third season. I would try to remain interested but it lost me. I never have watched the final season.

I would buy the series if it was around $20. And only because I did enjoy several early episodes.

The same thing was said about the 2004 remake.

What is ABC's track record on scifi? Not good. It might have a chance on CW if they frame it as feminist with a bunch of edgy multicultural women kicking old white man ass, but nowhere else.

Actually there was a lot of excitement and anticipation for the 04 version because of Ron Moore and it was a time when Syfy was trying to rebuild their brand around science fiction.

The same thing was said about the 2004 remake.

What is ABC's track record on scifi? Not good. It might have a chance on CW if they frame it as feminist with a bunch of edgy multicultural women kicking old white man ass, but nowhere else.

Actually there was a lot of excitement and anticipation for the 04 version because of Ron Moore and it was a time when Syfy was trying to rebuild their brand around science fiction.

And yet there was a lot poo pooing it also.

I have found and truly believe that there is nothing so bad it cannot be made better with a story.

Well then, then how does this succeed on ABC in the year 2020? Because even with Ron Moore, his fans, critical acclaim, and Syfy behind the 04 version, it struggled to stay on the air.

We'll just have to wait and see. Patience is a virtue. If it fails, it fails.

Patience has nothing to do with it. Space operas are iffy on any network. Syfy couldn't even make a go of The Expanse and big networks have even less patience. All they are going to do is foul the property.
