It sucked. Nobody this dysfunctional would ever be allowed to fly a military aircraft. Emotional retardation is not "genius". The series relied way to much on hyper emotionalism and absurd over reactions.

@@cb-gz1vl you forget the part where we're talking about 50k colonists in a couple dozen ships going into space, people dying almost every day. because of an unrelenting robotic enemy that will pursue them to the ends of the universe. if you have an ace pilot in that scenario, you won't really care about how crazy they are. as long as they can do what they're told.

@@aztekenen1 That's in a crisis. But she never would have gotten to pilot in a normal world.

@@cb-gz1vl I believe the Galactica was a bit of a dumping ground for rejects and problem childs. I think Starbuck was originally well adjusted but after the death of her fiance, part due to her actions she went off the rails. Adama always said she was the best pilot.

@@cb-gz1vl I always figured she became that way, and before all the shit was more normal, normal enough to get her wings.

Agree, to both

no way haha that's amazing

@@Ueberdoziz Yea, the toys were sold very early. I recall a choking hazard. Anyho', the gun turret would fit into the nose of the other Viper toy, perfectly locking both toys together. And this is exactly what Starbuck does here. I laughed :D

@@theGhoulman I wonder what the LSO thought when he saw the wrong end of a viper coming at him.

@@drmayeda1930 I'm guessing... "fracking Starbuck!"

yep, the care and respect this show showed to the original is amazing.

yes the sexual dynamics of smurfs always has been amazing to watch

I liked that but because it was a mannerism the original Starbuck had in similar situations, too.

16 already? Man. 15-20 years ago was prime time for great spaceship sci-fi - Galactica, Farscape, Firefly, Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis, not to mention all the Star Trek spinoffs if you were into them. I preferred me some Stargate, everyone says you have to be either a Star Trek or a Star Wars fan, well I was a Stargate fan.

Apollo just stares down his death but then she just swoops out of nowhere....such an interesting bond between those two.

What a great show!

@@usul573 Was she dropping flares or firing missiles so she could see.

Fertig real Cool what Session whitch episode

What episode is this?

Hello there!

Don't...dont malign BSG with that Prequel stuff (even if it is Obi-Wan.)

Another happy landing!

Starbuck: not to worry, I'm flying two ships!

Funny cuz Starbuck plays (and voices) Bo-Katan in the SW universe

You used a superfluous "space"

The old Starbuck unit was a comedian with great luck as a pilot, not a fighter. Both series are so different, you really can not compare them.

Huge breasticles.

I did think in this scene she actually did a callback to Dirk Benedict with the smirking through uncertainty. "Is this going to *work?" "Sure!" (probably.) :)

Well he is the caG…

That was 150,000 years before Qnuts. Now Lee wouldn't even flinch.

Same with me. I have the series on that old media DVD (with the little plastic Cylon) and all the other add-on series. AND I STILL watch these if I need a pcik me up at work. BEST SCI-FI SPACE SERIES EVER! "Firefly" a close second.

Hahaha. The deck crew is like. :oh shit. , starbucks gonna make us work : THIS TIME. ,Frank my life.

Immortal but beyond insane... I guess that comes with the territory...

@@koningbolo4700 yeah. Prerequisite for being immortal. Sanity is only for us mortals afterall.

SHE LIKES DEATH?

So they had something to break, duh! :)

The same guy that didn't put seatbelts on the Enterprise.

That and WHY the frak do they keep replacing them?

IT.

Trouble Could have been a recent addition for the new “museum” that Galactica was on the verge of becoming. A partition to keep the tourists and press from getting their grubby little fingerprints all over everything during the dedication ceremony. Didn’t matter if they slacked off a few days early, and put non-regulation gear up where it didn’t belong. We were at Peace, forty years of Peace.

Probably the same 5 that got shot down lol

FRAK those skinjobs!

Frak! make it thirty.

I guess its for suspense, but if the watcher pays attention then it becomes obvious, but hey, its sci fi.

I think the ship can't jump until the pods are fully retracted

Lol probably not, but dont forget that the firefly makes a cameo landing in the first episode of the miniseries

When She's feeling especially frisky, I'll pop in where she doesn't expect me. She goes wild, on fire. I call it the Adama Manuever. THAT was 11 on the 1-10 crazy scale. This one, happening early on, was and still is awesome.

Maybe to compensate for the uneven weight distribution?

It happened in Vietnam with F-4s too,

Same energy as the firecrackers in Star Trek ship's console.

The understatement of the millennia !

youtube's magic algorythme, i suppose ^^

They decided what comes up in people's suggestion list - I guess it's your turn this week.

It's now on iPlayer!

How about now, baby?

Starbuck is the man in that friends with benefits scenario.

Obviously, they had to shut it down once Vipers were in the air...

@@amigajoe1 the flak screen is to shield galactica from incoming missiles though and the vipers and raiders don`t normally operate in that area do they? Most of the show the flak screen is active while the fighters are out.

Look up Japanese war drums. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZ14f5iovtelkok.html

All I know is that it's an original by Bear McCreary, probably "Battle".

@@linusa2996 With respect, the OST for the miniseries was composed and conducted by Richard Gibbs. Correct title, different composer.

Probably CGI bug or something

Starbuck seems like the obvious answer, but then I remember the Han Solo background cannon and I just don't know.

Gordon Malloy. Best pilot in the Union fleet.

But could starbuck do the kessel run in less than 12 parsecs? XD

"They have a plan"

Darin Loken Thank you ! But I can’t find it :/ is it from season one ?

@@miaroronoa8908 No. It is from the mini series which set up season 1. The mini series was a two parter, with each part broken in half, so basically 4 parts. Afterwards came Season 1 Episode 1 "33 seconds" and etc. It is surprisingly hard to find the mini series. They have locked it down pretty good, even 15 years later. Here is Part 2 of Part 1. The others used to be there but seem to have been deleted. www.dailymotion.com/video/xz8k6k You can also go to youtube and buy the miniseries.

I did find a Hi Def version, if you don't mind the russian dubbing. www.cda.pl/video/53482733

yogibear6363 Ohhh that’s so sweet !you’re a life saver ! I watched all of the seasons but I don’t recall watching that scene! Guess I still have a mini series to watch 😃😃😃😃 Thank you so so much 🙏🏽❤️

JAnx01 agree, the pseudo weird concepts they brought into the show were just awful. The writers got lazy or just didn't care and let the shows timeline slip. They had a concept to follow and it looked like they were headed that way and then....plop.

you mean when she came back as an angel???

It was a stylistic choice. And a good one too to convey distances

Thank the Lords of Kobol that Michael Bay never got his hands on this series. He would have made it exactly the way that he made "Pearl Harbour" - a frakkin' disaster!

@@CathrineMacNiel Convey distance? How about convey what the hell is going on? I know it is a style choice, and possibly influenced by the limited budget of being a basic cable TV show (it might hide artifacts of the low budget). Still, very hard to follow the action.

@@DJ_Force If you were experiencing this for real,..first person,..trying to capture this action on live video,..do you think it would be easy to follow the action? That is why it was shot the way it was,..to convey a real-ness, like you are actually in the middle of the action trying to follow it. Most of us had no problem following what was going on,..and if I ever did I was happy to re-watch it.

@@stevenjeffrey4637 If I were experiencing this first hand? You mean standing on the nose of the Viper trying to look into the cockpit? Or floating in empty space as ships fly by? Even in the latter case, I'm pretty sure I could keep what I was looking at in the center of my field of view. The point of the special effects is to show you what's going on, so you can follow the action and the story. I get they are trying to convey a sense of action and energy. I just think they did it poorly.

yvonne strahovski would have been good aswell as Katee Sackoff as Captain Marvel

I read that she found the part boring. They should have gotten on their hands and knees and begged her to do the part.
