I've been watching Outcasts in HD on BBCA, looks wonderful.

Ah, so you get to see Lee Adama again.

Grace Park :p

I'm glad to see that she has steady work again with her gig on Hawaii 5-O.

Actually.....

Well, IMO the horrible German dubbing completely ruined BSG for the German market. While I usually hate voice-overs/dubbing in general, in this case those responsible did an exceptionally bad job with BSG. The translation, the voice-acting, even the mere choice of voice actors are just....wrong.

Back in the 80's, the networks which bought US and UK series at least made an effort to do the translation as well as possible (Miami Vice, Magnum etc. were at least watchable in German). Nowadays - especially when you know the original version - the dubbing makes me cringe every time.

Thankfully, SyFy Germany gives the audience the option to watch with the original audio track.

And, of course there are ways to watch US and UK TV shows in original language one day after they've been aired (albeit stretching legality a bit).

I've laughed at the BSG commercials on BBCA where they talk about how they walk among us, looking like us, but they're not...Jamie Bamber is...secretly British!

Yeah I still remember being quite shocked when I first found out he was a Brit since I had no idea who he was pre-BSG.
