I going start this thread because this has got to be my favorite sci-fi show ever! second is Buck Rogers.Im a sucker for Glen Larson Productions.I loved everything about it I know it has some real cheesy episodes I wont dispute that.But the were some great episodes aside from the 3 hour tv pilot, my favs are Lost Planet of the Gods ,War of the Gods ,Expirement on Terra I loved the Mytholigy about the show. Dirk Benedict, Richard Hatch, Lorne Greene ,Herb Jefferson Jr, were the best! How many people here actually own the Box set that came out in 2003 with the 3-D Cylon Head and then it was re-issued in 2006 as a normal box set ?

I have the boxed set shaped like a 3-D Cylon head. I waited and snagged one on ebay a few years back. I forget what I paid but I think I got it for around $40. Watched the whole thing. There were a few episodes I had never seen before, too.
While the remake has it's positive points and stands on it's own as an alternate reality BSG; the original will always be my favorite version.
Still hoping someday, someone can put together the remaining original cast for an updated movie or series.

Loved it.Still don't own the boxed set though everytime I see it the 3-d cylon head it is like $110 I just refuse to pay that.
Same thing for the tos trek sets.“When you say “It’s hard”, it actually means “I’m not strong enough to fight for it”. Stop saying its hard. Think positive!”Comment

Loved the show! Even the spin-off (Galactica 1980?) with the flying motorcycles was cool in my book.
No exclusives and no chase figures, please - I'm Canadian!

I had the 3D Cylon Head set for a year or so, then sold it on eBay.. I enjoyed the extras, but was irked that the commentary for the pilot (Hatch, Benedict and Jefferson..) kept erroring out..?!? It was pretty funny, but always had a problem with the disk playing that episode for some reason.
I liked the second half of the series more (with Anne Lockhart..), when it started becoming 'more than the sum of it's parts', such as focusing on secondary characters, adding the 'blackshirt' security guards, less 'Star Wars' and more continuing stories, like 'Baltar's Escape', 'Experiment in Terra', etc..
It started finding it's 'legs' so to speak, and I really felt it was getting better and better.
The new series was apparently good, but it never held my attention.. The cast didn't have the same 'screen presence' that the original cast did.

I was a fan of this show when I was young (even though I had to catch episodes on my aunt's TV as we didn't get ABC when it was on). I've watched it since when I can and most of the episodes hold up well. Sure, there are a few clunkers in there but also some gems.
I keep meaning to get the box set but never get around to it.
