Will you also be reviewing Galactica 1980? (Hopefully the answer is something like, Dear God No! It's worse than Voyager!)No, I will not be reviewing Galactica: 1980. The show truly is worse than Star Trek: Voyager. The only passably interesting episode is the final one in which Starbuck is stranded on the desert with the pregnant woman and a Cylon. Even that episode had the makeshift bicycle bit in which starbuck and the Cylon took turns pedaling to generate electricity. The only two other places I have seen that gag are on Gilligan’s Island and Red Dwarf. Such great dialogue, too:
STARBUCK: Well, this is a grand day! Only been in charge of this planet for three days and already I've doubled the population! I do hereby declare myself president-elect, if that's all right with you.Heh. Hang in there, Dirk. The A-Team premieres in three more years.
CYLON: Die, human.
STARBUCK: Don't be ridiculous.
One episode set during the Holocaust with the next starring Wolfman Jack? Even Brannon Braga would not think that is a good idea.
Technically speaking, Galactica: 1980 counts as the second season. I would have much preferred the plans for a legitimate second season to have become a reality instead. Ergo, I pretend Galactica: 1980 does not exist. I suggest everyone give it a shot for the sake of their sanity.
