A nice gentle feel-good series Battlestar Galactica 1980 is for anyone who likes watching nice "Saturday morning" films that are good fun and have nice people in them. There is a lot of very intelligent dry humour in this series pulled off brilliantly by the lead actors. There are also some very moving parts: the truly beauteous song that the children sing, and a few minutes of the "Space Croppers" episode where we see a time animated sequence of crops growing to the accompaniment of the most joyful little synthesizer melody that must... more info
OH MY GODS! No need for a long and deeply insightful review here. GALACTICA 1980 is quite simply the most awful piece of garbage ever broadcast on Earth.

This is sad Easily amongst the worst SF ever written for TV. In this list i would include the original "BSG", "war of the worlds the tv series" "buck rogers" "primevil" "the tomorrow people" you know where i'm coming from!? I am a huge sf fan brought up on Clarke, Asimov, Heinlein, Niven, Ellison, Blish, Aldiss etc so compared to these guys visions this stuff is truly crap. Do yourself A FAVOR don't buy this but get hold of the new BSG series or a decent sf novel by any of the above authors instead.
