      This comment column reminds me of when "The Funniest Man in America" comedian James Gregory did a spiel about ridiculous warning labels on products.
      One was about how cans of shaving cream now had a warning label that said, "Keep away from open flame."
      He said, "Do you know what this means? Sometime in the past, some nut has said to his wife, 'Honey, I think I'm gonna go sit in the fireplace to shave.'"
      Or the new warning on a tube of Preparation H. "Use only as directed."
      "Do you know what this means? Some nut has said to his wife, 'Honey, I wonder how this would taste on crackers?'" 😂
      They're all in the James Gregory playlist below if you want to have a good laugh.

      And Picard would have led efforts to negotiate with the Cylons. They will meet for a treaty signing near some old moon, and back in San Fran they will have a big celebration with a giant "PEACE" sign.
      Data would have been sympathetic with their cause--"Having dealt with humans for so long, I totally understand their desire to wipe them out. And having been the target of a plot-inconsistent effort to disassemble me, I won't support disassembling them. Dropping shields... [Picard's voice] Computer, initiate Transporter Program Data1: Destination: The Cylon bridge. And then lock out all Enterprise controls: Password: sdjfsdfsd7d77fs77fsd77fssds&&Dfdsshjie!. Engage."
      Then the Romulans would show up to save Earth, as they don't mess with silly negotiations or allow androids in command positions. And the people of Earth say goodbye to all that democracy and stuff, and welcome rule by the Romulan Star Empire. "If only we'd allowed the veterans to seize control, and set up a Citizen's Federation." ... Oops. Jumped universes.

    • @drmayeda1930
      @drmayeda1930 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Starfleet would have had a little trouble with the raiders. The raiders lasers couldn't do much to the shields but the starships would have a problem destroying the raiders. The raiders would be more maneuverable and doge the phasers or photon torpedoes. The bas4e stars would be easier to destroy. They would need to launch the attack sleds to destroy the raiders.

    • @ThreePointOneFou
      @ThreePointOneFou 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      But Starfleet has not only long-range detection but also warp technology, neither of which the Cylons have. The Cylons would be picked up long before they even reached Earth, probably even before they hit the solar system. And once their hostile intentions are confirmed, Starfleet would be all over them like white on rice. The raiders might prove a problem against Federation cruisers, but not much of one and not for long, with ship after ship suddenly turning up out of nowhere to join the fight. Meanwhile, the unshielded base ships would be cut to pieces by the fleet. Patrick MacCylon would almost certainly find his "final annihilation of the lifeform known as Man" proclamation premature, to say the least.

      As a fan of the 70's disaster movie "Earthquake", where most of the footage is from, I was very excited the first time I saw this sequence. Always loved that you could superimpose spaceships, remove the shake, and get a convincing Cylon attack using footage of an earthquake - a fake looking one at that! (But the low budget was a repeated theme on Galactica 1980.)

Texas doesn’t produce 1/2 of the world’s almonds most of the world’s iceberg lettuce, more Peaches than the other States combined, more dairy products than the dairy State. And for businesses, which other State would Texas go to hat in hand to sell them on moving to Texas if California became an independent country?

    Remember, this was in the 1980s. It would be sixteen years before Jeff Goldblum would have the wicked computer skills to make the "toasters" toast. But on the serious side, while bad, the series "Galactica 1980" did introduce the idea of Cylon "skinjobs", and the fatal flaw to the Centurion models. Armed with the fact that the Centurions are susceptible to microwave radiation, all the Earth would have had to do was turn all of it's microwave transmitters skyward at full power, problem solved, Galactica makes First Contact.

      The original opening episode of Galactica 1980 did not have all this. It did use scenes from the 1974 movie "Earthquake" and added Cylon ships and their laser bolts causing buildings to fall apart. This mix adds scenes from "The Day After" and - I think - "Meteor" (1978) (when a splinter hits New York), and includes scenes from the beginning of the original series (Saga of a Star World).
