Taylor joined ''Battlestar Galactica'' creator Ronald D. Moore on ''[[w:Virtuality (TV series)|Virtuality]]'', a two-hour backdoor SF pilot for Fox. The potential series would have dealt with the 10-year journey of a 12-member crew aboard the starship ''Phaeton'' to explore a far away solar system. The ''Phaeton'' will be equipped with virtual reality modules that will keep the minds of the astronauts active, and will allow them to undertake virtual adventures.  Moore and Taylor wrote the teleplay and executive-produce along with Gail Berman and Lloyd Braun. <ref>{{cite_web|url= http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=0&id=52132|title=SciFi Wire: Fox OKs Moore's Virtuality|}}</ref>
