KnockBack, Episode 175: Battlestar Galactica (Miniseries + Season 1)
Added 2021-06-14 16:01:01 +0000 UTCIn the early aughts, a late '70s sci-fi show was reimagined for a whole new generation of viewers. It was called Battlestar Galactica, and -- unlike the original, cult-favorite run -- the reboot was a smash hit. It's simple enough to understand, in premise: Humanity creates robotic slaves who turn on them in a vicious war before disappearing for decades. But then, they come back and inflict a holocaust on their masters. BSG deals with more themes than we can even imagine: Fascism and terrorism, economics and philosophy, religion and death. There's so much to talk about, in fact, that we're doing four episodes on the show. This is the first. We hope you enjoy.

I waited a decade for like minded people to talk about this show! Finally! This is one that solidified my love of hard science fiction.
