About this show

One of television's most celebrated dramas, "Battlestar Galactica" is the classic adventure of a ragtag fleet of humans, the sole survivors of a devastating nuclear attack by the robot cylons. Faced with an un-winnable battle against a deadly enemy, they are forced to flee under the protection of their one remaining warship, the outdated Battlestar Galactica. Pursued by the cylons - some of whom have now taken human form - Commander Adama (Edward James Olmos) and President Roslin (Mary McDonnell) lead these last remnants of humanity in search of a new home... a planet called Earth.

This series is by far one of the best Sci-Fi shows out there, in my opinion. The "aircraft carrier in space" space opera / drama meddles with many themes and complex plots . Though not perfect , I truly believe this to be my all time favorite series. Definately worth watching. It is a much darker take on the BSG universe of the late '70s, set 40 years after the events of the First Cylon War and even has 1 of the original cast members.

Like any great show, the stellar writing and acting are possible where the authors choose to address ethical and political issues and do not shy away from controversy. Character development is astounding - as is the mark of a true masterpiece.

I've watched this series at least three times. It's a space epic that hasn't been matched in storytelling since its release. It's a must-watch.
