I forgot how well written the introduction was. It set the scene, introduced excellent characters and started a brilliant story without making it an exposition dump. They don’t do sci fi like this anymore.
I love how the colour of the panels change as the series goes on, this is most noticeable in the CIC, where in S1 it’s a clean white/blue, and by S4 it’s a yellowed/orange
I love how for about the first 3 minutes of tens of people moving around the ship is actually shot in one continuous shot with no hidden cuts. It's easy not to pay attention to this stuff when you're just watching a story and that's okay.. you're not supposed to notice these things and pay your attention to the story and performance. But when you do take a step back and notice it, it makes the show that much more impressive.
I prefered the UNSC Everest, Valiant Class Super Heavy Cruiser, flagship of Admiral Preston J Cole, however, Galactica is one of the top 10s, I do prefer the look of the Valkyrie Class Battlestars from the reimagined BSG series.
The miniseries originally aired in two parts on two nights, it gained more audience the second night, which is extremely rare, usually smaller audience for part two of typical miniseries. This made it easy for the go ahead for the continuing series.
2:12 It is so eery to see Galactica's hallways not cluttered with salvaged equipment and the CIC still clean and brightly light, her younger crew with so much joy and a carefree attitude in their stride and mind while the old like Cmdr. Adama himself linger in the twilight of peace having lasted too long. We can clearly see that he knew the Cylon's would someday return when he is briefed about the the surprise attack later on
Today, as a Naval Tradition, whether a ship is going into mothballs, turned into a museum ship, or broken apart ships are brought back to their highest standard before their decommissioning. It helps determine if they go into the ghost fleet (ready reserve) or if they are turned into razor blades. I decomm'ed two ships when I was in the Navy.
"...Galactica represented Caprica and was first commanded by Commander Nash" - Haha... nice to see Silas Nash appear in Blood & Chrome! I think the drum intro for Galactica in the score for B&C references this scene too. I was so lucky to have seen the mini when it first aired as I was completely unaware it existed and had somehow missed all announcements and marketing for this show. I know it's only 5 minutes in but even by this scene I could tell this was gonna be something wonderful and amazingly different to anything we had seen before. Forever grateful and congrats to all involved.
If you haven't checked out Battlestar Galactica Deadlock I heartily recommend it. The writers were on their A game on that one and watching both generations of Galactica open up on those toasters is just plain glorious
That little lyrical play between Adama and Thrace, as a sort of protocol ritual, is soo good. Made the callback at the end really hit home. I forgot it was in the pilot.
This is so smart to keep cycling various video clips of the series periodically on TH-cam. It really helps bring back the memories and remembering why this was one of the best movie series ever made (if not the best in my opinion). Glad to be able to relive these moments thanks to your channel and your work. Keep it up.
I think it's time for a re-watch... I've been watching a few, but this clip did it for me. Olmos' Adama is so believable, even here, in the opening minutes of the show.
Fun fact: The producers were constantly telling the production teams to save money. They wanted them to be more efficient and to "cut corners" to do this. They really harped on this. As retaliation, the props department made that decision that all papers would have the corners cut off. Every sheet of paper (hell, even the hard cover books) had the corners cut off 😂
They regretted doing this in hindsight, Ron Moore said that they had to do this for 5 years to keep consistency and it became very costly at the printers.
Looking back you can guess at the emotions that Adama must have felt when he opened the picture. Pride at the respect of his crew and sadness about the loss of his family to death(his youngest son), divorce (his wife) and anger (his other son who blamed him for the death of Zack). I am sure that painting really hit him harder than he let on.
I watched this live in 2003 and had a group of friends over with my Sony WEGA Trinitron and Surround Sound System like the nerd I am. We were all blown away by the mini-series, and knew it was going to be something different. The opening dropped you in but helped you understand the world, the language, the main characters within a few minutes. Some of the dialogue, sound design, camera work, and visual effects were pretty literally never seen before at this quality before BSG on non-premium cable television.
I miss this show so much. I loved the original as a kid, and loved the reimagining just as much as an adult. Totally bridged those times of my life and I was just happy to watch both series.
Well, originally the twelve colonies were all supposed to be on the same planet (named Kobol) but they changed that during production. Maybe this line is holdover from that version.
Yes, I listened very closely to hear if Doral said “worlds-famous,” but nope. It would have been an easy way to get the audience’s attention (for those of us who never saw the original).
@@dennismatula650 I always wondered if cavil kept a ressurection ship close enough to the colonies just in case the final 5 bodies would somehow die, even before the attack. He surely cant afford to lose such precious assets. or he already a downloaded body somewhere else already.
What makes this scene so great is when it aired all the audience knew would happen is the miniseries. We didn't know the miniseries would kick off 4 seasons. So it's great to look back and see they had a long-term plan for these characters.
I don't think any of us at the time when we first saw this had any idea what kind of impact this show would have on not only television., but also on the lives of everyone who watched it or participated in the making of it
@@lisawillis8227 In this episode when the fleet escapes the nebula concealing Ragnar Station, the vipers are deployed to protect the civilian ships and engage the raiders. In the fighter battle Adama contacts Starbuck and says "Starbuck, what do you hear?" she the hears debris hitting her cockpit canopy and says "Nothin but the rain." apparently it a way of saying return to base.
Not really explain it though. The battle is after this scene. This scene is first conversation about it. Meaning unknown. The battle scene convesation is use by Adama try to knock/snap Starbuck back to reality, where she too deep in battle emotion where actually everyone is been call back "home".
At first I didn't know what to make of this remake, but I was still remembering what the original series was like. After the miniseries aired part 2, I was hooked like everybody else.
Joey Eve Agreed. Too many poor decisions towards the end. Killing off great characters is one thing, but having them be senseless deaths (Dualla) or require characters to seem to change into a different character (Gaeta) is what bothered me. Still love the show, but elements could have been handled better.
I love how Adama goes from amused and nostalgic at seeing a MK II Viper to in awe when he realizes its *his* MK II Viper. He thought they just found a refurbished some random antique, but they found his old bird and restored her just for him.
The way he keeps saying, "It's an honour" in this episode is in stark contrast to the way he says it in Exodus part 2 as the Galactica's fate seemed imminent.
That’s what I was wondering. They might have been able to alert all systems of a pending attack. And they might have been paranoid enough to scrub their network for viruses. It could have stopped “some” of the carnage.
Welcome aboard cadets.. Now start repairing the dents and scratches you punched into my flightdeck with your noob landing, a viper is not a shuttle dammit 🚀😎😂 *and don't give that excuse you got a bad gimble... Just dont* 💫😉
My favorite is Starbuck's, "MAKE A HOLE!" If you know, you know. Pretty much any vet, or vet's spouse, or kid, or pretty much anyone who has lived near a military post, knows that that's a polite way of saying, "GET THE F**K OUT OF THE WAY!" I'm also consistently surprised how many people know what, "Where's the head at?" means. Aside from one young lady, who took umbrage because she thought I was soliciting for, well, you know what.
I'll be honest. The original pilot movie/episode didn't completely thrill me. Looked great, but story moved a bit slow and some of the character changes/motivations were a bit hard to get used too. Basically, I could take it or leave it. When the series came out, I didn't catch it until a few episodes in when word of mouth got back to me as to how great it was. Glad I went back to it. One of the greatest SciFi series ever made.
I was wandering, at the beginning before zoom in into Galactica. Is that a Moon or asteroid? If is moon is it been partial destroy during the first cylon War? If is a asteroid, like like other side too round...?
Adama claiming he hasn’t seen a Mark II in 20 years but the museum was literally chock full of them, implying he didn’t even once visit that museum the entire time he’s commanded that vessel - can’t say I believe it
Ah yes, our first viewing of those backwards tank tops on top of tee shirts. I was Active Duty at the time and remember thinking, “Boy if I wore any part of my uniform like that, I’d catch all sorts of hell from the sergeants.”

Welcome to Galactica and to five seasons of the best TV ever aired.
Four seasons.
everything about this show can be described as "simply better". its simply better than what came before it, the script the sets, the music
The sets are amazing...the love & respect the crew shows for Adama & the Galactica.
I miss this show so much. I loved the original as a kid, and loved the reimagining just as much as an adult. Totally bridged those times of my life and I was just happy to watch both series.
I loved how Galactica looks so new and clean at the start. By the end the ship looks so beaten and broken.
"...the world-famous Battlestar Galactica."
Seems like a strange comment when there are quite a few worlds out there.
Perhaps it's only really a famous ship on Caprica.
Well, originally the twelve colonies were all supposed to be on the same planet (named Kobol) but they changed that during production. Maybe this line is holdover from that version.
To be fair, world, wer eld, just means "age of man". Earth also pretty much just means ground.
Yes, I listened very closely to hear if Doral said “worlds-famous,” but nope. It would have been an easy way to get the audience’s attention (for those of us who never saw the original).
