Video Licks: Watch The Late RICHARD HATCH in Sci-fi Dramedy PERSONAL SPACE Out 3.2 on Amazon Video

Because we love you, kids, we’re giving you a bit of sci-fi dramedy for Valentine’s Day. Battlestar Galactica’s Richard Hatch may have passed in February of ’17, but that doesn’t mean his legacy is lost. Apollo on the original BSG, Hatch worked on the new Kickstarter funded web series PERSONAL SPACE before his passing, and it will be making it’s world premiere March 2nd on Amazon Video and other streaming platforms. The show features and is dedicated to his memory. Here’s a short overview of the series,

The series is a sci-fi dramedy that takes place in an alternate timeline where the American space program has been decades ahead of actual history. Generation ship Overture was launched on a very long journey in the early 90s to a distant star. The crew serves in 25 year shifts, with each shift passing the torch to the one after. The audience watches current events aboard the ship unfold in 2017, as the second shift is supposed to take command, while the crew of Overture speak in confidence to the ship’s therapy computer. The key phrase here is “supposed to.”

You’ll be thrilled to find out who else is part of the ensemble cast. Wait for it, Nicki Clyne of Battlestar Galactica, Kurt Yaeger of Sons of Anarchy, Cliff Simon of Stargate SG-1, Tim Russ of Star Trek: Voyager, Brent Bailey of Emma Approved, and Sean Persaud of Edgar Allen Poe’s Murder Mystery Dinner Party! Mark Tierno, the star of SyFy’s The Mercury Men, will also make an appearance as Wernher von Braun. The creative team includes Tom R. Pike, creators of the hit web series Echo Chamber Zack Wallnau & Dana Luery Shaw, and producer Jeff Hammer.
