    I just rewatched the whole series a few weeks ago. It mostly holds up still today.

    (actually parts of it might feel extremely relevant if you’re in the US …)

      I’m watching The Normies react to it and it’s making them all uncomfortable how much MORE relevant it is now than it was 20 years ago.

      9/11 really did kill America.

      There is a scene towards the end of the occupation story arc where Galactica jumps into the atmosphere and free falls for a while whilst launching its fighters before jumping away at the last moment.

      Totally. Fucking. Epic.

      I’ve rewatched this so many times. Always makes me smile.

        Battlestar Galactica (2003) It’s a miniseries of two episodes and then a full series for 4 seasons. Really, incredibly good scifi. If you haven’t seen it go watch it.

        Yeah, with some humans agreeing to be part of the policing force etc.
