It will probably be ground breaking and one of the best things on television. Expect SyFy (HA!) to cancel it after three seasons, forcing a rushed ending on us.

3 episodes before it ties into a battlestar prequel.

I love Ron Moore, this sounds similar to that show about a pandemic JMS was working on for ABC. I would rather Moore ditch Sony who have done him no favors and move over to ABC and work on the Star Wars tv show were his talents would be better served.
