Fans of classic, cheesy TV sci-fi rejoice! Universal Studios Home Video has just announced 2003 as "The Year of Battlestar Galactica." Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Epic Series will be available for the first time ever on DVD on October 21, 2003, just in time for the December 2003 premiere of The Sci Fi Channel's original mini-series.
This six-disc set includes all 24 hours of the original series, fully remastered in 4:3 full screen and Dolby Digital 5.1 surround (the original mono tracks are also included) plus extras including an interview with series creator Glen A. Larson and series stars' Richard Hatch (Apollo), Terry Carter and Anne Lockhart, a sneak preview of the new Sci Fi Channel remake, and a rebate coupon for $10 off the DVD box set. Retail is $119.95, and Universal will also reprice the currently-available Battlestar Galactica: The Original Movie single-disc DVD to tie-in with the promotion.
