    Just being honest, I’m 62 years old and fell in love with the original Battlestar Galactica as a teen. Starbuck was by far my favourites character and when the reboot made Starbuck a woman, I was pissed. I learned to eat humble pie when I saw the reboot. The cast was unbelievable, the twist and turns stories wise was simply amazing. Everyone involved in this series has every reason to be proud. Fracking good job.

    I accidently met Edward James Olmos outside a restaurant in Encino, CA. Having just finished breakfast, I was putting my riding gear on when he had just gotten out of his car right next to my motorcycle. Right before I put my helmet on, he wished me a safe ride. One of those moments where I was stunned, but also not stunned by a movie star in that he was so chill. It's good to know that he was "Admiral" behind the scenes as well.

    I AM SO GLAD toward the end that James Callis comments on Gaius Baltar's last on-screen moment. That one moment is one of the most brilliant character turns in the whole series. Chokes me up every time when he remembers his dad, with the only other person in the whole universe who even knew his dad, at his side.

      Incredibly powerful. It’s a very human-centered show. It really seems to revolve around consequences, with the Cylons representing the ultimate consequence of man’s sin (or so my theory goes). It’s like Terminator in space but with more emphasis on character development over action.

    I had the unique opportunity to talk with Mr. Olmos for about 15 minutes. We covered everything from Miami Vice to BSG. We both felt that BSG was one of the best shows of any genre that had ever aired. He was incredibly personable and generous with his time. I'm not a celebrity worshipper or autograph chaser, but the picture I got of the two of us was the wallpaper on my phone for a long time.

    One of the best series I've ever watched - more than once.
    The story was all encompassing - and eventhough it was a reboot it paid homage to the original in a very respectful way. And the cast were magnificent - to the point where it felt more like science-fact than fiction. Magnificent.

    It cannot be overstated -- the score by Bear McCreary is still the best TV score of all time, and it's not even particularly close.

    • @KaitainCPS
      @KaitainCPS ปีที่แล้ว +25

      What tends to get forgotten is that the musical sound of the show was created by Richard Gibbs for the 2003 miniseries, with McCreary as his assistant. He was asked to return full-time when the show was greenlit as a full series, but he had to pass as he had other commitments. He recommended McCreary be given the sernior job. It worked out extremely well, and McCreary deserves his plaudits, but Gibbs made a big mark on the show by going in such a distinctive direction for the pilot. Some of the cues from the miniseries are outstanding - not only "Are You Alive?" which became the leitmotif of Six whenever she appeared, but also "The Storm And The Dead" (when they're laying out the dead before approaching Ragnar Anchorage), a stellar piece of work with a plaintive choral component.

    • @lucemiserlohn
      @lucemiserlohn ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @@KaitainCPS That is not quite accurate. The only music of Gibbs the show used was the original main title (Colonial Anthem), all the original music was written by McCreary. IIRC Gibbs turned them down from the start, and had a hand in suggesting McCreary, but ultimately did not work on the show.

However, McCreary took it to another level (several actually) on seasons 1-4 & the films. Even the score he did for Caprica was amazing (as well as Outlander & everything else he works on). McCreary put so much thought & passion into his work on BSG & boy does it show.

Pretty great. And cool that SW gave us BG... and then BG gave us Katee who's in SW.

    One of the things that seems odd now:
    Gaius Baltar was originally not conceived as a comedic character at all; he was just going to be a regular, straight-laced dramatic character. But when James Callis started delivering some of the lines in a semi-improv comedic style that made people laugh while still serving the plot, they realized they could write for Callis's specific take on Baltar, and he quickly became the character as we now know him.

    I had heard about the show and to be honest it really didn't sound like something I would like. Was just flipping through channels one day and started watching a show that seemed pretty cool not realizing it was BSG till after a commercial. I was amazed, and hooked. Turned out to be one of my all time favorite shows. The writing was harsh, and I mean that in a good way. Violence, real issues, hardships, the works, nothing candy coated. you got invested in every character. and the use of 'frack' was brilliant. I bust out and binge the whole series from time to time still.

It’s got to be my favorite Sci Fi series and Katee Sackoff has got to be one of my favorite actresses, all because of this show. It is phenomenal, considering this show spoke to a ton of issues immediately following 9/11. The story writing was excellent, the acting was excellent. Again, one of the best series of any genre out there ever.

    This show was part of an important period of my life. I was a university student, watched it (together with other shows but BSG was the diamond of all) in my student dorm with my roomies.
    It was so intense, if I remember correctly there was also the writer guild strike and we had to wait for the continuation. My roomie and I were always trying to oredict the plot twists and whats happening next to the characters and storyline.
    As the show ended, I was overwhelmed by feelings. It carried me for the most part of my university time. At the end of the year I had to make the decision to leave university and start a new life back at home. Never regret it but it was a wonderful time, the show truely was a big part of it

"The one question that people always ask me as I'm walking around is, 'How's it feel to be on Battlestar Galactica?' and I always tell them, 'It's the frakkin best job I ever had!'"

Then in 2009 Circuit City went out of business and had to sell everything. So I bought the first two seasons and once I started…I could not stop. I now have the DVDs and Blu Ray, which is good since Peacock stopped carrying it. I have lost count how many times I have watched the show.

    This reunion brought back so many memories. I watched the series in a little over 1 week the first time through... that's how addicted I was. I remember my first time watching it through... there were characters I loved and hated. But after re-watching the series so many times, all of them were just perfect. I think in the end, I would say my favourite subplot of the series was the relationship between Roslin and Adama. It embodied so much of the real world power struggle that exists in politics even today. Also, there was the aspect of Roslin being a woman trying to lead or co-lead in a world that had been or (has been) dominated by men. The disgust they had for each other in the first season contrasting with the incredible love they had for each other by the end of the journey... just absolutely amazing. Kudos to both Edward and Mary for their phenomenal portrayals of these legendary characters.

      It’s a completely different take on the story. 40 years later with different actors, writing and technology. One version of Starbuck doesn’t need to be better than another. They are simply different.Played by very different actors and of course gender, which alone put a different perspective on the outcome.

It will stand out as a timeless and extremely well executed TV series and arguably one of the best ever of the genre.
