MISSION GALACTICA
Universal Playback presents Mission Galactica – The Movie: retro sci-fi heaven!
The Battlestar Galactica is running dangerously low on fuel and all seems bleak when help comes to hand in the form of the supposedly lost Battlestar Pegasus, which is taking an offensive tactic with the arch enemy Cylons.
The impending attack by the Cylon robots must be stopped. Two commanders, Commander Adama (Lorne Green) and Commander Cain (Lloyd Bridges), have differing views on how to defeat their enemies…what will the outcome be?
Dirk Benedict and Lorne Greene star in the seminal movie that remains a fond favourite in the eyes of many a sci-fi fan!

The original Captain Cain & Pegasus had loads of fans - I'm sure there was a fansite dedicated to the 'older' Beast.

leave the nostalaga for original bsg in the past, if you watch it now its horribly cheesy and lame. also the last episode of teh season you will realise that each of the 3 main pilots, apollo, starbuck and boomer are in love with one another.

I gotta go with Badger. The original 'remembers' much better than it watches these days...

On the other hand, season 3 of BSG has some of the best episodes of the series and some of the worst too. Fortunately the good far outweighs the bad! :)

The first five episodes are among the best TV SciFi ever made.
