Aww… not available in Canada.

Of course, it’s US downloads only, the download link doesn’t work in Canada. Oh well, it’s produced less than 5km from my city and they’re pretty good about fans visiting

This website has a LOT of ads.

Ha Ha!
James,
Yes, we have a lot of ads, but they are 90% Amazon, and 95% on the right hand side of the page, so you really don’t have to worry about accidentally seeing them if you don’t wish to.
Every web site takes money to run and host. If you have 1 magic ad that will bring in some money, please contact me, and I wil lbe glad to post it and drop the rest.

@Tawker - where is the show produced in vancouver? I was at the SG studios at The Bridge the other day which was cool, would love to stop by the BSG studios.

Yep, I wish they’d make these freebies available in the UK!!!!

I wish they’d stop using iTunes to distribute media.
FFS can’t they do it themselves??

Annoying that you can’t get this from the UK. We’ll be getting the new series on Sky soon, so a catch-up would be really useful.

If you’re in Canada or anywhere else that can’t view it…here’s a link I found that points to a free online version of the recap special online (YouTube I think):

also wondering when new episodes will appear on iTunes. Any word?

Yes…. when will they post it.. ? .. I want to PAY for their TV show.. why are we not treated as well as others who watch this series.. ? Are we taken for granted?
Meanwhile.. there are downloads for Intel Viiv processor-computer owners.. ? Do we actually need the latest Intel processors to watch video on computers.. something that has now been technically possible for many years….

I wish that iTunes still had BSG! I was first turned on to BSG from iTunes, and downloaded the miniseries, as well as season 1 and season 2 and watched them all on my computer.
Now I have to wait for the DVDs to come out. Wish NBC wasnt so greedy.
