Battlestar Galactica Podcast Trivia #3 - The very man with the balls to not only “re-imagine” Battlestar Galactica and make Starbuck a “girl” was surprised by the success of the Podcast.

“If you’re actually bothering to download my Podcast and listen, it implies you have an interest in the show that goes beyond reading the scifi press kit.”

“The president of the network is listening to my Podcasts?”

“At the beginning of the process, I just looked at the Podcast as more work … but the Podcasts, they are fun, I enjoy it, it’s relaxing … in a real way, I look at the Podcast as the final act of producing the episode.”

Battlestar Galactica Podcast Trivia #4 - The miniseries tested terribly to focus groups.  They were told they should never pick the thing up as a series.
