It sounds as though Rob Moore's
Battlestar followup,
Virtuality, is
dead on arrival, which is really too bad, because the pilot (
first twelve minutes /
whole episode) was actually fairly promising. (The premise is intriguing, from the eco-apocalypse backstory to the overarching reality-TV conceit—though there are worrying signs of
BSG-style mysticism already peaking through.) Of course, there's
a "Save Virtuality" web campaign, but that and
widespread,
very positive reviews will get you exactly nothing. Maybe
Sci-Fi Channel SyFy will come through, but I wouldn't hold your breath...
