INFO![BSG_Divider.jpg]()
Battlestar Galactica is een populaire drama / science fiction georiënteerde televisieserie geproduceerd door Ronald D. Moore. De serie trapte in december 2003 af met een drie uur durende miniserie. Na lovende kritieken in de pers, aanmoedigende kijkcijfers en goede DVD verkopen duurde het dan ook niet lang voordat Universal brood zag in een televisie serie. Vier seizoenen en 75 afleveringen later eindigde de serie op 20 maart 2009.
Oud en nieuwDe miniserie en televisie serie staan los van de Battlestar Galactica serie uit de jaren '70, waar de oude serie bekend stond als
cheesy,
camp en relatief oppervlakkig, wordt de nieuwe miniserie en televisie serie gekenmerkt worden door hun uitgewerkte personages en donkere karakter, een duidelijke weerspiegeling van de Westerse psychologie na 11 september 2001: Overal kunnen verraders schuilgaan en achterdocht is het hoogste gebod.
Recensies en awardsDe reïncarnatie van
Battlestar Galactica werd in 2006 door vooraanstaande bladen als
Time Magazine en
Rolling Stone uitgeroepen tot beste televisie serie. Daarnaast slaagde Battlestar Galactica er in 2006 in een prestigieuze Peabody Award in de wacht te slepen voor
'Excellence in Television', ook won Battlestar Galactica een Hugo Award en Saturn Award. Het succes van de huidige serie kan worden verklaard door het grote aantal non-science fiction fans die Battlestar Galactica weten te waarderen, Battlestar Galactica is in de basis dan ook karakter gedreven serie.
•
USA Today - "Driven by violence and rage, Galactica is perhaps the darkest space opera American TV has ever produced. In Galactica's future, humans are on the run, and if external enemies don't get us, internal divisions will... You'll understand them [the characters], their conflicts and their desires, because they're recognizable humans in all their glorious complexity. And that's what makes Galactica a great TV series."
•
Entertainment Weekly - "has distinguished itself as one of television's very best dramas, because it so utterly transcends both its genre and its source material. ...[The] series' sophisticated stories have also attracted a distinctively new breed of fan, one who's not necessarily a sci-fi buff."
•
The Florida Times Union - "Its propulsive and complex storytelling is matched by, at best, just a handful of theatrical movies a year."
•
Time - "A gripping sci-fi allegory of the war on terror, complete with monotheistic religious fundamentalists (here genocidal cyborgs called Cylons), sleeper cells, civil-liberties crackdowns and even a prisoner-torture scandal"
•
The Guardian - "Battlestar Galactica is the only award-winning drama that dares tackle the war on terror"
•
Stephen King - " "This is a beautifully written show, driven by character rather than effects...but the effects are damn good. And there's not a better acting troupe at work on television."
•
Joss Whedon - "I think it's so passionate, textured, complex, subversive and challenging that it dwarfs everything on TV."

SCHEPEN![BSG_Divider.jpg]()
Battlestar Galactica aka "The Bucket"One of the first twelve Battlestars built, the Galactica represents the Colonial planet Caprica.
During her service, the Galactica formed a part of Battlestar Group 75 (BSG 75), a Colonial force described by series creator Ronald D. Moore as a mixed-force of vessels somewhat similar to a US Navy carrier battle group. Like any of her sister ships, which may have survived the original Cylon War, the Galactica underwent refits and upgrades. However, her computer systems were neither networked nor integrated by any of her commanding officers, up to and including her final commander, William Adama.
Due to this lack of network integration at the time of the Cylon attack, the Galactica was immune to the infiltration program used by the Cylons to disable Colonial vessels and defence systems, using the Command Navigation Program (CNP), developed by Dr. Gaius Baltar.
At the time of the Cylon Attack, Galactica was 50 years old and she was undergoing formal decommissioning from the Colonial fleet following her retirement as an operational vessel. She had been due to become a museum ship; a combined living museum commemorating the Cylon War and educational centre. Due to its age, the ship is unofficially known as
"The Bucket". Another nickname used by the crew is
"The Big G".
Battlestar Pegasus aka "The Beast"Substantially newer, larger and more powerful than the Galactica, The Battlestar Pegasus is a
Mercury Class Battlestar, assigned to Battlestar Group 62 of the Colonial Fleet, and commanded by Admiral Helena Cain at the time of the Cylon attack on the Twelve Colonies. Thought to have been destroyed during the attack on the colonies, Pegasus escapes, and encounters the Battlestar Galactica.
Before the fall of the Twelve Colonies, the Pegasus had just docked at the Scorpion Fleet Shipyards where it was due for a three-month overhaul. Many of the ships systems were offline, including the Command Navigation Program that the Cylons used to disable Colonial defences during their attack. The Cylons' opening wave hit the shipyard with several nuclear warheads, destroying five ships, including two Battlestars. The Pegasus lost 700 crew members. As a result of the Cylons' devastating attack on the Twelve Colonies, Admiral Cain became increasingly iron-fisted.
