News zur 2. Staffel (Spoiler)

[DRD Pike]

NBC Universal still has not made a decision on the fate of the series, although a Canadian newspaper reported this week that the show has been picked up for a second 13-episode season.

SyFy Portal sources are saying that the show is getting a pickup, but there seems to be some kind of tie-up between officials from Sci-Fi Channel and NBC Universal. It is unclear what the tie-up is about, but some are speculating that it might be over NBC rebroadcast rights. One source has speculated it might actually be over NBC's desire to air the series on a first-run basis.

Ist mir doch egal wo, hauptsache es läuft. Entscheidet euch endlich! *g*


Zu BSG in Deutschland:
Bitte nicht auf RTL2! Aus Furcht vor Programmhinweisen auf andere RTL2-Sendungen brächte ich es nicht fertig dort einzuschalten.

[Captain Garan]

musst dir halt immer Augen und Ohren zuhalten wenn Werbung kommt. ;D

Lasst uns feiern!

[Dr.BrainFister]

ich habs im gefühl, dass aus dieser serie ein ganz großes ding wachsen kann, wenn auch weitere staffeln genehmigt werden... vielleicht ist es eine art omen, dass star trek langsam den scifi-olymp räumt.

[Nager]

Juhu, eine zweite BSG-Staffel kommt.

Skiffy hat sich mit der Entscheidung wieder sehr lange Zeit gelassen, aber bei den immer noch steigenden Quoten konnten sie nicht nein sagen.

[DRD Pike]

Die zweite Staffel wird 20 Episoden haben! (Link) :bounce:

Diese ungewöhnlich Anzahl scheint neuerdings in Mode gekommen zu sein, s. Atlantis S1 und SG-1 S8. Warum eigentlich?
Aber egal, hauptsache mehr BSG!

und:

All principle actors -- including Olmos and McDonnell -- have reportedly signed to return for a second season.

[wu-chi]

Wow, gleich 20 Folgen.
Da freue ich mich jetzt schon drauf.

Für die Darsteller-Nennung gehört eigentlich eine SPOILER-Warnung. :P

Viele Grüße

[Amujan]

TECHNISCH gesehn ist das kein Spoiler, denn mindestens für ne Sterbe-/Sargszene müsset Olmos wiederkommen *grins*

coole Sache das. :bounce:

[DRD Pike]

Wau, die legen ein ganz schönes Tempo vor: Die zweite Staffel soll schon im Sommer kommen.

The channel added that the entire ensemble cast will return for season two, including Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, Tricia Helfer and Grace Park.

Galactica ends its first season with a finale episode on April 1.

Die Briten werden diesmal dann wohl nicht die Ersten sein.

im neuen Blog vom 19.02.2005 geht auch Moore auf die 2. Staffel ein:

Originally posted by Ron Moore
So it's official: we're doing a second season.

To say that this is happy news is to indulge in a display of understatement. The road to television success is a long one, littered with various hurdles, all of which must be vaulted: the studio pitch session, the network pitch, the story outline, the first draft script, the second draft script, the green-light to produce the pilot, casting the pilot, making the pilot, ordering the series, producing the series, getting the reviews, getting an audience, and then.... getting a second season. We've managed to clear that hurdle and it feels frakking good.

We've been working on the first six episodes for a couple of months now and we're gearing up to prep them for filming, probably in late March. Season Two will be heavily influenced by the end of Season One, so it's hard to get into anything remotely specific until the last episode has aired in the US. I could say... well... er... not much.

Er erzählt kurz wie kompliziert die Entstehung einer neuen Serie ist und wie viele Faktoren simmen müssen um Erfolg zu haben, lässt dann verlauten, dass sie inzwischen seit ein paar Monaten an den (Skripten) ersten sechs Episoden der zweiten Staffel arbeiten und sich aufs Filmen Ende März vorbereiten. Er verrät natürlich ... nichts.

Q&A Blog habe ich natürlich hier erweitert.

*freu* am 15.07.05 geht es schon mit der 2. Staffel weiter

[Benjamin Ford]

15.Juli 2005? Toll, da startet ja auch die beiden neuen Staffeln der "Stargate"-Serien, kommt dann wohl im 3er-Pack von 20 - 23 Uhr!!!

[Crystal]

Genau, der viel beworbene SciFi-Friday, der jetzt wirklich gleich 3 Serien hat, die ich mir ansehe. Hach, was wird das für ein schöner Serientag in diesem Sommer. Bisher hört es sich jedenfalls so an, als würde BSG weiterhin dem Konzept der 1.Staffel treu bleiben. Da macht das Zusehen Spaß.

...hey, Moment mal, Teil des SciFi-Fridays? Heißt das etwa, BSG wird zusammen mit Stargate auch in die Winterpause gehen? Ein paar Wochen keine neuen Folgen? Und dann wahrscheinlich auch ein Cliffhanger?

[Crystal]

Gateworld hat im BSG-Guide übrigens schon einge Zeit die ersten 5 Titel mit Kurzbeschreibung und ein paar wenige Bilder online. Ich weiß ja nicht, wie's bei euch ist, aber solche 1-Satz-Beschreibungen lese ich vorher immer ganz gerne.

Achtung Spoiler!

Interessant finde ich vor allem, dass sie die Storybögen weiterhin so langsam entwickeln. Adama wird nicht innerhalb einer Folge geheilt, sondern es dauert mindestens 3 und Starbuck ist in Folge 5 immer noch auf Caprica.

Und wer schon mal da ist, ein kurzes Interview mit Jamie Bamber/Apollo gibt's auch. Nur leider ohne Videoaufzeichnung.

[Balian]

Achtung Spoiler!










Auf der Seite: http://www.hollywoodnorthreport.com/...p?Article=1259 habe ich folgendes gefunden:

First up, Tarn (who dies in Episode 202) is the name Alonso Oyarzun (Specialist Socinus) picked for unnamed cast members. Seelix is another name Alonso uses for these insignificant figures who are comparable to the red-shirted individuals who always died on the original Star Trek series.

Second, Richard Hatch is coming back as Tom Zarek in Episode #203 and is signed on for 6 of the first 10 episodes of Season 2. It is safe to say he will be in the majority of the Battlestar Galactica episodes.

With respect to more detailed episode synopses for Season 2, Lee will free Laura Roslin from prison and take her down to the planet Kobol in #204 ("Resistance"). Some of the Cylon Plan will be revealed in #205 ("The Farm"): apparently, the Cylons cannot reproduce and so require the bodies of human females to implant their hybrid embryos.

Finally, the spoiler of greatest interest is that contained in #210-211 ( a two-parter): namely, the Galactica comes across another Battlestar which had escaped the destruction of the colonies. It can be assumed that this Battlestar is the Pegasus under the command of Cain. Ron Moore has repeatedly stated he would like to reimage the "Living Legend" story line from the original series, and this will probably be his attempt to do so. Here's hoping that more information will be provided on this two-parter in the upcoming months.

Stay tuned for more news items on SCI-FI's groundbreaking series, Battlestar: Galactica, which has a 20 episode run for its second season.



Als erstes freue ich mich das Richard Hatch wieder mit dabei ist.

Auf die Folgen 210 und 211 habe ich von Anfang an gehofft.
In US-Foren wird hierüber auch am meisten spekuliert.
Unter anderem wie das andere Schiff überlebt hat, ob es ein Kampfstern oder ein Zerstörer ist, ob es überhaupt die Pegasus ist (wegen der rechtlichen Situation) und ob das Schiff eine Begleitflotte hat. Auch wird viel darüber gerätselt ob Cain ein Mann oder eine Frau, ein weißer oder ein schwartzer, ein Kriegsheld oder ein Feigling ist. Und wer in die Rollen von Cain, Sheba und Bojay schlüpft ist auch ein viel diskutiertes Thema. Hier wurden als Cain unteranderem Dirk Benedict, Herb Jefferson J., James Earl Jones, Jeff und Beau Bridges(Söhne von Lloyd Bridges), George Clooney, Tom Selleck, Nick Nolte, Scott Bakula, Vaughn Armstrong, Jeffrey Combs, Samuel L. Jackson, John M. Jackson(JAG), Morgan Freeman, Sean Connery, Harrison Ford, Kiefer Sutherland, Robin Williams, Jim Carrey, William Shatner, Christopher Lee und einige Frauen wie z.B.: Anne Lockhart, Claudia Black (Farscape), Claudia Christian (Babylon 5), Jamie Lee Curtis und Sigourney Weaver vorgeschlagen, wirklich in Frage kommen nur wenige, ich fände Jeff Bridges oder einen aus der originall Serie nicht schlecht aber es kommen noch viel mehr in Frage. Die Schauspieler die die Rollen von Sheba und Bojay übernehmen sollen werden kaum diskutiert, hier wurden Famke Janssen, Rosario Dawson und Sarah Clarkefür die Rolle der Sheba und Daniel Dae Kim als Bojay genannt.
Diese beiden Folgen bieten also eine Menge Diskusionsstoff und viel Platz zum spekulieren.

Bei Sci Fi Wire hat sich Moore über die zweite Staffel geäußert (Achtung Spoiler!)





More Galactica Deaths Coming?

Will more characters die in the upcoming second season of SCI FI Channel's original series Battlestar Galactica? That's what series creator and executive producer Ronald D. Moore told SCI FI Wire in an interview at EnigmaCon at the University of California, Los Angeles, on May 28.

"Yes, there are a couple of familiar faces that will go down for the count," Moore said cryptically, without identifying the doomed characters. He added: "I would say the events of the end of last season [mark] the beginning of this season."

Among other things, Moore said: "Adama's [Edward James Olmos] shot. There's people stranded on Kobol. Kara's [Katee Sackhoff] back on Caprica. Those storylines continue; all those continue. I would say we don't wrap up season one until episode seven. Adama is not back on his feet anytime soon. Commander Tigh [Michael Hogan] is in charge of Galactica. Laura [Roslyn, played by Mary McDonnell,] is in jail. There's a meteor crisis that follows the cliffhanger, and Tigh kind of steers them through that crisis successfully. But, you know, Tigh, he's probably the guy you don't want in charge."

Moore said that cast and crew are in the process of shooting the sixth episode of the second season in Vancouver, B.C. "We have scripts for the first 10 episodes," he added. "The 11th should be in this week, and we have the stories for the first 14."

Moore offered additional spoilers for the second season's arc. "Things begin to unravel when [Tigh's] in charge of the fleet. He declares martial law at a certain point. There is an incident where he sends the troops to get supplies, because the ships are withholding supplies from Galactica. He says enough is enough and sends out the troops, and an incident happens, and people get killed. They shoot a bunch of civilians. It's a whole nightmare, and Laura starts an insurrection and the fleet divides. There's a lot of fallout from the events of the last season." Battlestar Galactica returns July 15 and will air Fridays at 10 p.m. ET/PT.




Das sich die Flotte teilt habe ich schon gehört, das soll woll in den Folgen 10 und 11 passieren wo man auf den anderen Kampfstern (Pegasus?) trifft, der zweite Kampfstern soll woll auch eine Flotte von zivielen UND militärischen Schiffen anführen die sich neu aufteilen.

Neue Infos über die zweite Staffel.

Achtung Spoiler!

Battlestar Galactica's Season Two Is Shaping Up

Once again specific information was provided on Battlestar Galactica's Season 2 on Shaun's Subject 2 Discussion show at lvrocks this past Wednesday night, June 8, 2005. Spoilers were revealed on upcoming episodes, including some interesting cast additions. Read on if you have an inquiring, Colonial mind.

First up, they are looking for a female to play the commander of the other battlestar in Episode 210. Questions naturally arise as to whether this will be the reimaged Commander Cain? And who will the actress be to play this pivotal role?

Next, the Sneak Peek of BSG's Season 2 showed Adama holding a baby on the planet Kobol. This is actually a vision that Baltar is experiencing. Adama is still recovering from his wounds aboard the Galactica and will not be on his feet until the fifth or sixth episode. Moreover, Baltar's and Six's baby is described as being a "mystical" child. In an interview with James Callis and Tricia Helfer in this month's issue of SCI-FI magazine (August 2005), Callis had this to say about the baby: "At the moment, it's a spectral projection. It will materialize into reality when the entities that bring that about kind of get together...It's a bit like...it's there, and it isn't at the moment, for it will be...It is the shape of things to come."

A very satisfying spoiler that was announced had to do with the theme song for Season 2. Because US fans on several new series boards preferred the UK theme over the US one, SCI FI will be using a variation of the UK theme. The mystical chanting will be there, but not the drum beats at the end.

Finally, TVGuide just announced that Lucy Lawless (of Xena: Warrior Princess fame) will be in several episodes of Battlestar Galactica, playing a female reporter similar to CNN's Christiane Amanpour. Speculation arose as to whether Lawless will be one of the two new Cylon models to be introduced this season.

To recap, a female Cain(?), a spectral Cylon-human hybrid, the UK theme for Season 2, and Lawless as a Colonial reporter are promised for the new Battlestar Galactica series. As details continue to unfold, they will be reported at Flight Deck.
