    5 out of 5 stars Excellent price for a great original series.   June 24, 2009
    E. Timke (Washington, DC)
    I was able to purchase this item as an Amazon Gold Box deal--excellent price for an old series. The original series of BSG is a great addition to an existing or new fan's collection. I highly recommend if you're interested in the origins of BSG or if you'd like to go back to the BSG you originally remember.


    4 out of 5 stars BATTLESTAR GALACTICA ROCKS!   June 24, 2009
    Taheen Lopez (United States- San Diego, CA)
    BATTLESTAR GALACTICA was my favorite show during its 1978-79 Season, which I used to watch every Sunday night on ABC when BATTLESTAR GALACTICA made its debut on ABC in the Fall of 1978, which was a year before BUCK ROGERS made its debut on NBC in the Fall of 1979.

    The truth is BATTLESTAR GALACTICA was an awesome show in its 1st Season, but then it went downhill in its 2nd Season when the show changed its name to GALACTICA 1980 in its 1979-80 Season when BUCK ROGERS was in its 1st Season on NBC along with the fact that BATTLESTAR GALACTICA was starting to lose a lot of viewers through BUCK ROGERS since BUCK ROGERS was soaring in the ratings while BATTLESTAR GALACTICA was toppling in the ratings, despite the fact that BUCK ROGERS & BATTLESTAR GALACTICA were both created by Glen Larson.

    Another thing that led to BATTLESTAR GALACTICA's cancellation on ABC was Starbuck(Dirk Benedict, Apollo(Richard Hatch), Sheba(Anne Lockhart), etc. were all ousted from the show by GALACTICA's 2nd Season, but it just so happens that the same sort of thing ended up happening to BUCK ROGERS the following year when it started its 2nd Season on NBC in January of 1981 which led to BUCK ROGERS cancellation in the Summer of 1981 which was only a year later after ABC cancelled BATTLESTAR GALACTICA by the Summer of 1980, but it just so happens that the same sort of thing that led to BUCK ROGERS cancellation on NBC is the same sort of thing that led to BATTLESTAR GALACTICA on ABC since the ratings plummeted rapidly on BUCK ROGERS in its 2nd Season when Dr. Huer(Tim O'Connor)left the show and got replaced by Hawk Man(Thom Christopher)and a few other new characters on a new fleet.

    Something intriguing that just occured to me was the red sensor light on the cylons on BATTLESTAR GALACTICA is probably what inspired creator(Glen Larson)to have the red front moving scanner light installed in the middle on KITT on KNIGHT RIDER 4 years later when KNIGHT RIDER made its debut on NBC in the Fall of 1982 since there's never been anything else like it on any other show or any place else besides BATTLESTAR GALACTICA & KNIGHT RIDER.

    The one thing I don't understand is why didn't Universal just released the original BATTLESTAR GALACTICA with Lorne Green, Dirk Bendict, and Richard Hatch individually season by season like Universal did with their other shows like KNIGHT RIDER, MAGNUM, MIAMI VICE, THE A-TEAM, AIRWOLF, etc. instead of just releasing BATTLESTAR GALACTICA in a complete series DVD box set.

    It was also interesting seeing guest stars like
    -Former rockstar(Rick Springfield)in the pilot episode before his co-starring days on GENERAL HOSPITAL and before his days of being a famous teen idol in the early 1980's.
    -Lance LeGault before his co-starring days as the hard-nosed Col. Decker on THE A-TEAM and Magnum's high strung superior officer(Col. Green)on MAGNUM, P.I.
    -Edward Mulhare before his co-starring days as the Brittish(Devon Miles)on KNIGHT RIDER
    -Randolph Mantooth after his co-starring days as Fireman(Johnny Gage)on EMERGENCY
    -Eric Server before his co-starring days as the voice of Dr. Theopolis on BUCK ROGERS:IN THE 25TH CENTURY
    -Emmy winning actress Jane Seymour in the pilot episode
    -Judith Chapman before her co-starring days on YOUNG & THE RESTLESS, DAYS OF OUR LIVES, and ONE LIFE TO LIVE
    -


    Perhaps this is just another gimmick that Universal is trying to do, despite todays poor economy.

    Great sci-fi series in a good DVD set. I hope they do a remastered edition like Trek did.

    Paying this much money and they can't even get the right discs in the box. I have no disc 2 and an extra disc 6 in its place. So have to #6 discs and buy the time I opened it, it was too late to exchange!

    Fun to watch. Somewhat campy, Battlestar is what it is, it's where it all started. The newer version contains the best of this series. Richard Hatch is worth looking at. Lorne Greene is Adama. As a sci-fi collector I think it is worth having in your collection.
