May 12th, 201117th Precinct
If you are having severe Battlestar Galactica withdrawal symptoms and miss the actors of both BSG and Caprica, then this pilot might be for you. Created by Ronald D. Moore, the man behind the BSG reboot, 17th Precinct tells the story of a San Francisco police precinct in an alternate reality where science is out and magic is in. A twist on the police procedural that might have genre fans reeling in excitment or slapping their foreheads in disdain. We think the former will come through since the show has a what might be a strong cast featuring BSG and Caprica vets Tricia Helfer, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, and Esai Morales with Kristen Kruek, Stockard Channing, Matt Long and Eamonn Walker rounding out the cast. Moore is the executive producer/creator of the pilot, which will be directed by another BSG alum Michael Rymer.
