One interesting comparison between the Star Trek and BSG 'verses - in three of the Star Trek series', the Enterprise was the flagship of the fleet. The Galactica was the opposite.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I don't understand the distinction. What is it, then? How is it different from a flagship?

One of the oldest and least technologically advanced ships in the fleet. Which worked out well.

Sorry, I shouldn't have said hand-to-hand. Up close & personal fighting with guns, as opposed to flying around in cool spaceships.

Is there a term for that? I guess it's face to face combat. Although they don't have faces. That's probably why they're so bitter.

How is it different from a flagship?
A flagship is often the best ship in the fleet. It's usually the most prestigious, and one of the most powerful.
Technically, a flagship is the ship in a fleet or task force where the admiral in charge of the fleet/task force has his office and controls things from. The name comes from the fact that commands between ships were passed by various flags that were hoisted.

In the original show, the Galactica was really old as well, then? It was very deliberately done in the new version, as it made them less susceptible to the Cylon virus.
