The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

discounting the awful Galactica 1980

It's best to look at that particular series as badfic that was televised.

So wait - the second BG was called Water?

Huh. I guess I did see them both, but didn't notice a transition from one ep to the next. Maybe it came up during my dog walk break. Cool. One less thing I have to scramble around for since I missed the second MI-5 last weekend.

You must have timed your dog walk break perfectly, because they put the title "Water" up on the screen in big white letters, just before they cut into Boomer, soaking wet, with a faraway look in her eyes.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Poor unintentionally-evil Boomer, man.

There was one ep of the original BSG where Apollo was monitoring random space noise listening for signals that would steer them towards civilization. At the very end of the episode, right after Starbuck had lured him away from his post, there was a sudden clear burst signal of a NASA Apollo mission transmission.

OH! I'd forgotten about that, quester. Which would peg Original Galactica as occuring looooooong after modern times.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Didn't OBSG go to Earth in some eps? Was there time travel? When was it when they arrived? Dream sequence?

If they did, that's gone and slipped my mind entirely. I only remember awful Galactica 1980 actually on Earth.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

There was an arc where Galactica found a planet called Terra, which was Earth-like, but they discovered it wasn't really Earth.

In the Galactica 80 series, the guy who played all grown up Boxey was Kent McCord, who also played Jack Crichton in Farscape.

Ooh! I knew Kent McCord was in the series, but I'd forgotten he played Adult!Boxey.
