Rejoice, Battlestar Galactica fans! All four seasons of the beloved 2004 sci-fi series are now free to watch online.
The show can be found on Syfy.com, along with the Battlestar mini-series, which focuses on the Cylons' attack on the human race. The network is also making the series' two movies -- Battlestar Galactica: Razor and Battlestar Galactica: The Plan -- free to stream.
Sam Esmail, the creator of the Emmy award-winning show Mr. Robot, has signed on to develop a new Battlestar Galactica series for NBCUniversal's upcoming premium streaming service Peacock. He has promised that the project will not be a remake.
"Why mess with perfection?" Esmail tweeted last September. "Instead, we'll explore a new story within the mythology while staying true to the spirit of Battlestar. So say we all!"
The original Battlestar Galactica was created by Glen A. Larson in 1978 and ran for two seasons before coming to an end in 1980. The show gained a cult following over the years was eventually picked up again in 2004. A prequel series, dubbed Caprica, premiered in 2010 but was canceled before it could finish its first season.
No release date has been given for the new iteration of Battlestar Galactica. The cast and crew has not been assembled, either.
