In case you were wondering what Ronald D. Moore has been up to since the epic Battlestar Galactica left the airwaves, the visionary mastermind has gone on to create an original T.V. movie called ‘Virtuality’ for Fox. The made for TV movie stars Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Commander Frank Pike. Many of you remember him from New Amsredam (a show that went before its time).

Scifi Wire  gives us the plot of the show

The crew of the Phaeton is approaching the go/no-go point of its epic 10-year journey through outer space. With the fate of Earth in the crew’s hands, the pressure is intense. The best bet for helping the crew members maintain their sanity is the cutting-edge virtual-reality technology installed on the ship. It’s the perfect stress-reliever until they realize a glitch in the system has unleashed a virus on to the ship. Tensions mount as the crew decides how to contain the virus and complete their mission. Meanwhile, their lives are being taped for a reality show back on Earth.

I am a sucker for T.V. show set in space. And since BSG ended a few months ago this looks like something I could get into. With Ron Moore at the helm earns this bonus points. If the reception is good Fox may even consider it for a full series.
