Alan Wrote:Bonus question:
What was the name of her Captain's daughter who stayed on Galactica after Pegasus disappeared?

Bluesman Mike Lindner Wrote:It has been a long time all right, but I seem to recall the other Battlestar's name was "Atlantica." I have a strong audio-visual memory of the Galactica being trapped by Baltar's (spelling?) ships, under heavy attack. There was Baltar, on his bridge, grinning evilly: "Burn, Galactica, burn!" And from nowhere comes the other Battlestar, all weapons blazing, targeting Baltar's flagship. His evil grin turns to horrified disbelief...

How the heck do I remember this stuff??? I must've watched the first episode sometime in the last year or so, after the DVD set came out, but I can't remember the last time I saw any of the other episodes for sure. I think I'm flashing back to the early '80s when they were repeated endlessly on my local station every weeknight (along with "Buck Rogers in the 25th Century"). Or maybe I caught some of the SciFi Channel reruns more recently....

Lisa Wrote:Hey Mike, don't worry, Scifi will pinch the show after 19 episodes to fund Taken 2. Not that I'm still bitter over Farscape. :mad: Lisa P.S. -- Where the heck have you been? We were just talkin' about ya.
Marc B. Wrote:For anyone that has been interested in watching Battlestar Galactica but hasn't because it's starting its third season look no further than iTunes. There is a 45-minute "catch up" episode available as a free download. It's very informative and does a nice job bringing the viewer up to speed.I'm finishing up Season 2 tonight. Then I plan on watching the webisodes on http://www.scifi.com
