built 630 days ago
Battlestar Galactica is the gripping drama of human survival against unimaginable odds. When the Cylon robots rose against their human creators, they launched a devastating nuclear attack that left less than 50,000 survivors. On the run and in search of a new home, the last remnants of humanity struggle against waning supplies, weapons and hope. Redefining the space opera with its gritty realism, Galactica's intensity, issues-driven topicality, and command performances have garnered it unprecedented critical acclaim. The show has ... been honored with the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award, an Emmy, and been lauded by the American Film Institute (AFI) as one of the most outstanding programs on television for two years running. Battlestar Galactica returns to SCI FI in early 2008 for its fourth and final season.

Yes, the third season of Battlestar Galactica had some definite low points (“The Woman King”). In fact, the entire middle portion of the season was a bit of a stall. But the final four episodes were four of the greatest hours of TV produced all year. From Kara Thrace's untimely “death” to the trial of Gaius Baltar, there was plenty for fans to sink their teeth into.

It begins on the eve of a devastating Cylon attack when Major Kendra Shaw (played by Stephanie Chaves-Jacobsen) reports for duty as the new XO on the battlestar Pegasus. Battlestar Galactica Razor portrays the harrowing tale of the Pegasusà fight for survival in the aftermath of the Cylon siege of the Twelve Colonies. Kendra is haunted by memories of her service and sacrifices under Admiral Helena Cain (played by Michelle Forbes), who saved her ship by making her offices perform suicidal battle tactics and horrifying war crimes against their own people. Battlestar Galactica Razor tells how Kendra was reshaped into what Colonial veterans call a ìrazor,î a living human weapon without hesitation or doubt when mankindÃs future was forever changed on that fateful day. Battlestar Galactica Razor tells the story of the Pegasus and provides chilling clues to the fate of humanity as the final chapters of the Battlestar Galactica story unfold.

Season Two of Battlestar Galactica begins with Commander William Adama bleeding in CIC, shot by Cylon agent Boomer. Thrust with command, Colonel Saul Tigh must take command of Galactica, and consequently protects and separates ships of the fleet. Once found, Tigh attempts to keep the fleet together as President Roslin remains in custody on board Galactica. Several bad decisions, helped along by Tigh's power hungry wife Ellen, eventually create a rift that fractures the fleet. Many of the ships flee to Kobol following escaped president Roslin. Intent on finding the Tomb of Athena (with the Arrow of Apollo from Starbuck), Roslin leads a search team to the surface of Kobol.
