Jamie Bamber dislike the SciFi channel

In a recent interview from the Daily Dragon Jamie Bamber from Battlestar Galactica says that he strongly dislike that the show is on SciFi.

DD: The downside of science fiction is that it's often categorized as a "marginal" genre. Battlestar Galactica is by far one of the best, if not the best show on television and yet doesn't have the ratings of a more mainstream series like The Sopranos. Do you find it frustrating that some people might not watch the show simply because of the label "science fiction"?

JB: Yes, of course I do. I really believe in the show. I believe in the stories we're telling. I believe that they're great characters, and it's great entertainment, too. So yeah, it's frustrating that we do have that stigma attached to us. The fact that we can call it a genre says it all, really; it's not just people, as a drama, as a series; it has to be characters. I think that's a problem that science fiction has that it will always marginalize itself by calling itself SF. It's unfortunate that we're on the SCIFI channel; we can't even get away from it. We couldn't brand the show as anything else because of the network we're on.

I also think that we're a grown-up show that demands something from the audience. And audiences, by and large, don't want to be demanded anything of. They want escapist entertainment, and that's why movies like Syriana don't do as well as movies like Spiderman 3.

That's the truth. If you're going to make grown-up shows that challenge people, then only a few people are actually going to be appalled.

Sad but true.

Rumour: Final Season to be split?

The final season of Battlestar Galactica will be divided up into two ten episode seasons, one to air in 2008, and the other in 2009.

At least that’s what the nasty rumour going around since the annual Dragoncon convention was held says. The rumour started when several actors complained about SciFi’s lack of ability to properly handle genuine hit programming by revealing that the SciFi channel plans to cut the final season of Battlestar Galactica into two parts.

Nothing is official yet and SciFi hasn’t denied or confirmed this rumour.

No Battlestar Galactica on iTunes

You have probably all heard the rumors. And now it has been confirmed. Battlestar Galactica will no longer be solded on iTunes.

The reason to this is that NBC and Apple can't decide on the price for the different TV shows. NBC want's to set a higher price tag for newer TV shows and a lower price for older shows. But as Apple only accept one price for every video no matter how old or how new it is.

So will you be able to download the latest and older episodes of Battlestar Galactica? Well, yes, to an extent. If you live in the USA you will be able to download the episodes from Amazon.com. You also need to run a computer that has Windows XP or Vista on it.

I personally think this is just another big, dumb and greedy mistake from NBC...
