Winner of the longest title so far in 2005

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA; WITH SCIENCE FICTION ERADICATED FROM NETWORK TV WITH ALMOST CYLON-LIKE EFFICIENCY, THIS DARK RE-IMAGINING OF A 1970S ALSO-RAN SHOULD BE A MAJOR BOON TO THE SCI FI CHANNEL. NIFTILY PICKING UP WHERE THE 2003 MINISERIES LEFT OFF, THE NEW FRANCHISE PROVIDES SOLID STORYTELLING, AND UNIVERSAL GAVE IT A SMART PUSH-START BY REPEATING THE MINI ON FLAGSHIP NET NBC TO HELP LAUNCH THE SERIES.
