Oh, I think I found out of the 6 episodes of Galactica 1980 >shudders at
the title< that I found I liked a good lot of the series. Being specific...
1 "Galactica Discovers Earth (aka Galactica: 1980), 3 parts.
Ok, this was a alright introduction. I liked how they had a grown up
Boxey, gave a solute to Apollo with the picture, showed the two daggits,
and how Dillon was kinda a Starbuck part two. I did like Troy and Dillon.
The romp back into the 40's was interesting. I don't mind a World
War 2 story and mix in some BSG into the mix... campy but fun.
4 "The Super Scouts, Part I" March 16, 1980 (1980-03-16)
So on this one we get to see some older Boomer, some recycled but cool
photage of the education ship being attacked, and then we get to have
some great awkward moments as Troy and Dillon try to figure out Earth
currency, where they basically wind up robing a bank without meaning to.
Fun stuff.
Oh and in this one there is this cool song the kids sing around the
campfire which is neat if you like the culture of the Galactica fleet.
5 "The Super Scouts, Part II" March 23, 1980 (1980-03-23)
Ummm forgot about this part where they uncover a illegal toxic waste
dumping conspiracy. Oh well. I think this is where I started to kinda
loose interest.
6 "Spaceball" March 30, 1980 (1980-03-30) 1.6
Wow... light hearted episode. My least favorite.
7 "The Night the Cylons Landed, Part I
& II" April 13, 1980
This was a good episode. Lots of humor, but we not only get to see
Cylons again, but a human looking one. Interesting. And Dillon and
Troy have to stop these Cylons before they notified the rest of the
Cylons of the whereabouts of Earth. Good stuff.
9 "Space Croppers" April 27, 1980 (1980-04-27) 1.9
"The Galactican children help a farmer in financial trouble."
Have to be honest, when I was watching the show when I got the
Galactica 1980 set, I didn't see this one so can't honestly say what I
think of this one.
10 "The Return of Starbuck" May 4, 1980 (1980-05-04)
And here we have Robinson Crusoe on Mars starring the ever lovable
Starbuck. This of course is like 90% of the reason to get the
Galactica 1980 set. I'm glad that the last glimpse of the original
series is with this story. (And not "Spaceball".) :P
