Galactica flies again

Since Caprica's cancellation, Battlestar fans have either had to revisit Ron Moore's brilliant series or wallow in self-pity for what they may have once been able to witness, but for wallow no longer! The suprisingly great Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome, a prequel web-series, can now satiate that Adama hunger.

The web-series follows a much younger Bill Adama during the First Cylon War, a war between man and man-made robots for those of you unaware, and his first conflict with crew, authority and Cylon. Fans will see a few references to both Caprica and Battlestar Galactica here and there layered throughout, but Blood and Chrome is its own entity and so I've read they will be few and far between. For more information on nods to the other shows and what the series went through to make it to the air check out Den of Geeks article on the matter:

However, BEWARE spoilers bountiful within but are clearly captioned as so, so read with care.

Adama is played by the English actor Luke Pasqualino of Skins and The Borgias fame and his co-pilot Coker by Ben Cotton.



The series is free to view and is currently on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.
