Finished BSG, plus placed watching of The Plan and Razor. (As well as watching of the original series). Now we are starting Caprica and will cap it off with Blood and Chrome. Enjoying the different lore and view points.

4th or so watch through. At the Kobol crash part of the show. I had to laugh when I recognized the mountains and the location, thinking "shit, I used to walk my dogs all the time maybe 100 feet from this spot." And then attempt to take the scene seriously. Same with a lot of the city of Caprica scenes being in Vancouver, like seeing the stadium in the background.

I had this experience with Stargate SG1 as well (even more so). Actually when I was a kid I stumbled across the film set for Stargate and could've sworn I was seeing a real UFO.

Makes me love these shows more, though.

My husband and I have watched BSG twice now, despite both hating the original '78 show when we were young. The depth and breadth of the storyline will keep us coming back, and we have also really enjoyed some of the various spin-offs, interval films, and the like.

We just started watching Caprica last week, and.. generally? I like it, but there are some GLARING flaws in some of the character development, namely that of "Dr" Amanda Graystone. Am I the only one who finds the character, as a person, literally stupid? As in wondering how or why this character managed to get the "doctor" in front of her name?

She's impulsive, reactive, and the only depth the character is adding feels like filler -- Zoe has a mom she often had conflicts with and...? Yeah. That's it. She has sex with Dad.

Every other character, every other part of the story's arch is making sense to me, especially as an origin story, EXCEPT for Amanda Graystone's. She asks idiotic questions "Are you wearing that?" and simultaneously ignores fairly glaring signs of trouble, she's just watching shit happen and...? She offers what amounts to little more than filler dialog, while every other character is actually fleshed out and is speaking and reacting in a manner that allows the suspension of disbelief which is my number 1 metric for show quality.

The actress who plays her played a similar, but actually superior role in Ray Donovan, so I don't think it's her, I think it's the writing and it dismays me because BSG itself is so DAMN. GOOD.

Been having a rough few days, so this was just a super cool little thing that raised my spirits. No one in my circle is a fan of BSG, so thought I'd share here to people who may understand my excitement. Hope you all have a great rest of the weekend!

Gonna be playing Battlestar Galactica the board game on Tabletop Sim in 30 mins! We should have enough players to play a game but if anyone wants to learn how the game is played please join the event on discord. We will have someone stream the game. :) https://discord.gg/ZZjfH7Xa?event=1330678459319455795

I’m sure this has been asked before, but does anyone know where to get high quality BSG tanks for a con? I know there’s a super popular Etsy store, but they’ve been out of stock in my size for months, and they won’t be available for a while. I’m contemplating purchasing some normal tank tops in the brown and gray colors and altering them, but does anyone know about any other shops?

I am a bit late to the party, just started watching S04 (we didnt have this show on TV in my country - ever), and, after she pretty much killed herself in S03, she somehow survives, visits Earth in her Viper and reaches Galactica despite Vipers not having FTL.

How does this work exactly, because I cant wrap my mind around it.

On my third or fourth watch of the series, and being a bit more critical. I'm just finding it odd how these two are used for security when.... They're pilots. They have guys specifically trained in small arms, infantry/police tactics, but they use pilots for high profile guards? Just seems silly.

But in the end it's just to have main actors on the screen for the story to happen, I assume.

I'm going to make bsg shipyard and I need ships. I printed a test print the ship involved and the galactica came out bad. I made it into the Battlestar Archeron wreck.

Been rewatching the show and starting in the last half of season 2 I’m noticing that there’s items in the “previously on” segment that wasn’t on the show (i notice a briefing with Starbuck, Adama, and Roslin arguing to return to Caprica, and a discussion between Adama and Tigh about appointing Garner as Pegasus Skipper). Has anyone else noticed this? Am I losing my fraking mind?

Hey everyone! A non sci fi fan friend of mine said he'd try an episode of BSG but doesn't think he'd like it. His main complaint is the sci fi he has seen is cheesy (couldnt give names). He enjoys crime dramas mostly. So the question is...what ONE episode would you show to convince someone the show is worth a watch? Thanks!

Well, it has taken me several years to pull this off, but as of TV's mail call, I own all 196 BSG comic books from 1978 to 2019, and someone sent me a CD containing scans of all of the British and French comic strips from the '70s and '80s. So as far as I know, I now have every BSG comic book and comic strip to date. Now to read them all, start to finish! I've read several of them in the past, but there were a lot of gaps. This will be my first time reading them all in release order. Wish me luck....

I always assumed Anastasia committed suicide because they lost all hope of finding Earth, but here it says she did it because her ex husband whom she had left had feelings for someone else? I call bs

My new ski helmet 😊

Differs from the Episode 'Saga of a Starworld in so many ways. But was an enjoyable read. Colour film stills with Ralp McQuarrie concept artwork in place of miniature stills.

Written by Robert Thurston and published in the UK by Futura Books. This paperback can still be found cheap. What do others think of this novelisation? Did you enjoy it or were you disappointed?
