How is that for a blunt review, ladies and gentlemen? Yes, the...."Universal Studios Censorship Squad"....wasn't able to lasso this review in...in time before it slipped through the cracks and made it to the Internet. Aside from the usual B.S. fluff built into every article that mentions Universal Studios and Battlestar in the same sentence...."I love Ronald D. Moore's version"....Somehow this review dares to say that the image on this Blu-Ray set isn't what it should be and could be. Personally, I have known for a long time that Universal Studios has never been able to master each new technology that has come along allowing classic television series to be released for home viewing. Whether it be..."Blu-Ray"...."DVD"....or even..."VHS Cassettes".....
Strike this one as..."Another Failed Home Entertainment Release"....from....Universal Studios.
And where did the...."Universal Studios Engineers"....come from? Fired...."N.A.S.A."....formeremployees?
And how about that box art with the rubbed sandpaper look and eroding background? Shudder!! A metaphor for Universal Studios deteriorating management of all things Science Fiction and...."Battlestar Galactica"....during the past 35 years, no doubt.

And read these books at another location where Universal Studios executives and its stealth marketers won't be able to post negative, misleading (stealth marketed) reviews of the books via them purchasing candy and Rogaine Foam on Amazon.com (allowing them access to the Amazon book review section) and not actually buying and reading the books. I'll leave the other 150 global locations under wraps for now.
Another low selling...."Battlestar 1978"....product Universal Studios strove so hard to achieve. Doesn't matter to me. I don't own a Blu-Ray player and from day one (November 2014) this product never motivated me to go out and buy one. I wanted to wait and see how badly...if....and....to what extent by design....Universal Studios would screw this product up. My instincts are proving to be correct.

Why would Universal Studios need to improve the visual attractiveness of this box art when all they would have to do is to not make this release available for mass media reviews where the poor condition of the box art would have been inevitably commented on, casting Universal Studios in a very poor light?
...."Yes the picture and sound are awesome....but what's with the crappy ass looking exterior box art....? It's just like the Republican Party. Why should it ever get out of bed with big business and the banks alienating itself from honest, favorable mass votes when it can instead, just rig (trash) the American voting system to where it can always win elections dishonestly?...Voter ID...reduced voting hours in the states with strictly Republican Governors, gutting Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 which coincidentally, just happened to strictly benefit the Republican Party in stealing elections, implementing racial discrimination at the polls...."If you're not wealthy and white, we don't want you voting"....

These low rated television series get cancelled as quickly as the..."Sybil SyFy Channel"... keeps them coming!! Come and see what no one has been watching!! Come and see a textbook example of how any television network should not be run!! Come and observe the worst business people in the entire history of television routinely and daily mangle what is left of what used to be a great Science Fiction channel (in the 1990s) long before the...Universal Studios....people came along and trashed it.

1. It will never be the best job Universal Studios could ever do with this Blu-Ray release because nothing involving the..."1978 Battlestar Galactica Series"....ever is. Universal Studios should have contracted this job out to...."Time Life"...who did a magnificent job with the..."Six Million DollarMan"....complete series set from 5 years ago. With Universal Studios doing this job themselves, the concluding opinion probably will be..."Oh shit, where's my sales receipt? I want a refund!! This thing is junk!!"
2. If the crappy looking package art stands as is and goes up for sale looking like this, it will mean that after 37 years, Universal Studios crappy attitude towards the..."1978 Battlestar Galactica Series"....still hasn't changed.
3. If this Blu-Ray release manages to be reviewed by anyone, the concluding opinion probably will be...."Great looking and sounding discs, crappy package art...." Assuming of course, Universal Studios has suddenly broken free of its notorious personality and history of manufacturing crappy...."Battlestar 1978"....merchandise and suddenly manufactured these Blu-Ray discs the way they should be manufactured. Top of the line.
4. There's also the whole other issue of including the 12 year old extras from the..."Battlestar 1978 Complete Epic Series"....DVD Set from October 2003...and making no attempt to include present day extras. Including a 5 minute interview from 12 years ago from when Glen A. Larson was still alive? No follow up, present day tribute to him after he unfortunately passed away? Doesn't that just sort of smack of...Just not giving a shit? Doesn't that mean this Blu-Ray set is incomplete?

Bravo!!...To ABC-TV for renewing...."Agent Carter"....for a second season. It is smart, funny, fun, inventive, inspired, wildly unpredictable, sexy, interesting, exciting, and a convincing recreation of...."1942 America...." Just the way Science Fiction and Fantasy should be when done as a period piece.
NBC-Universal and..."Sybil SyFy Channel"....take note. When attempting Science Fiction / Fantasy on television at the very least hire people who know how to do it. Not Ronald D. Moore.
