Moore and David Eick were on hand in New York June 5 to accept a prestigious Peabody Award for the SCI FI Channel original series. They were joined by cast members Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Jamie Bamber, Katee Sackhoff and Grace Park at the 65th annual Peabody Awards ceremony, hosted by TV satirist Jon Stewart, which took place at the historic Waldorf-Astoria hotel. The show's writing staff was also in attendance.
Video of Moore and Eick's acceptance speeches - as well as praise from fellow Peabody winners and South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone - have been posted on SCIFI.COM's SCI FI Pulse video feature.
