Yeah, but a 22 year old Audrey Landers wearing a skimpy tight outfit makes up for a LOT of poor effects, LOL

The dumb kid was there from the beginning, representing the what we are fighting for. I can only remember couple of episodes focusing on the rag tag fugitive fleet. The reboot did seem much more real given the situation of most of humanity being dead and running with few supplies.

While unwilling to go as dark as the situation demanded given network TV of the day to come out with a second episode set in a casino and the people there acting as if they would be ignored by the Cylons committing genocide was beyond stupid.

I always for the original. I wouldn't scoop my cats' litterbox with that reboot!

Reboot was GREAT, with the possible exception of most of season 3.

I remember it. Well, I remember that I watched it, but that's about all.

Lorne Green's Adama could kick Olmos's butt, plus reserve for the rest of the remake's crew!

Cruzin, yeah.. I think those Earth-bound episodes were initially packaged as Galactica 1980, then later reverted back to Battlestar Galactica.
They were actually my favorite episodes, their time on contemporary Earth was interesting to me..
