Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game

Okay, I'll say Buck Rogers was also an incorrect answer and move on. So the standings after that change are:

brainee -41
The Cow -39
kenbuzz -38
majorjoe23 -38
davidh777 -35
wishbone -31
buckeyes8604 -29
Shannon Nutt -29
mwbmis -28
Abob Teff -27
Damfino -26
DaveNinja -21
Count Dooku -17
Crocker Jarmen -17
NORML54601 +4

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game

I'm fine either way with this. Since the Buck Rogers and BSG "movies" were just theatrically released pilots, it's not really correct to say the series were based off the movie.

I think the Caprica answer was meaning it was based off that first 70s BSG movie ... kind of a doubly fuzzy answer.

I agree with Dooku. Plus the early theatrical Buck Rogers were serials, not movies.

Fist bump to The Cow for also picking Firefly. Went with my heart over my brain on that one.

I believe I did ... too lazy to go look though.

Preach! This was the actual correct answer. Although I didn't care for the version posted.

I guess the debate is the wording of the question, but I would say even Caprica should be accepted -- without the BSG movie it wouldn't exist. In fact, IF you buy the argument (I don't) that BSG and Buck Rogers are incorrect since the movie was the launch - not inspiration - then you would have to accept Caprica as correct.
