The Cylons Attack the Colonies - Battlestar Galactica 1978

Jane Seymore - hottest thing going!

Much better than having all of them Basestars launching nukes at the colonies. I loved the energy-based weapons instead of the re-make using bullets.

I wondered, even as a child, how this size of an attack force could get past any detection or defense apparatus.

By your command.

Before the Kaylons (The Orville), there were the Cylons.

What were, I guess they were news broadcasts saying about the carnage
of the cylon attack the Battlestar crew was watching on their tv monitors? I can barely
make out the dialog but could anybody post a complete transcript of this "news broadcast scene?

On 9/11 I was Active Duty Air Force and my Gen X nerd ass was thinking of this scene as I looked up in the sky seeing GWB’s escort Vipers fly over our base.

I enlisted late so my cohorts were all millennials who would not know anything about Battlestar Galactica until the reboot came-out in 2003.

Yes it was probably unnecessary to
imagine there would be enemy fighters violating US airspace, but orders were, “Be ready for anything,” so naturally one’s imagination would get involved.

Lesson to learn for all "peace with ruzzia"-peacenics.

I almost forgot Jane Seymour was in the original BSG. My goodness she was smoking hot then and still smoking hot now.

I always loved the designs of the Cylon fighters and Base Ships....the model work gave them an impressive sense of scale that I didn't get from the ones in the reboot.

As a kid and even now, I love the ship designs of this series. The show's premise was so good. I feel like the newer one got away from it and made it too political and it didn't have that ancient civilization vibe like the original.

No radar.

bad special affects even for the time

Good heavens. This was SO much darker and disillusioning than 8 year-old me remembers... those devastated looks on the faces of the Galactica CIC crew as they're watching their home worlds go up in flames.

Would it have made a lot more sense for the Cylons to have AI piloted starfighters rather than ones piloted by their troops? Even the Trade Federation had the right idea of the starfighters being droids themselves.

Lindsey Wagner would have made aa super hot Cylon! Bionic Babe goes full silicon! Maybe with some electrostatic fishnet leg shields? Schwing!

Where’s the Viking when u need them

A good show. Costly to produce. Only lasted 2 seasons. 😢😢

The original Battlestar Galactica was so much better than the remake years later!!!!! The remake totally ruined the storyline and so much more.

The Cylons had a plan.

People are running everywhere!

Jane Seymour?!?! Is that Jane fn Seymour?? Omg how did I miss this detail for 40 years?!

I just realized Jane Seymour is using Gene Rayburn's microphone from match game

Damn good SFX for 1978!!!

❤

Woooohooo! I have the ORIGINAL Colonial Viper AND the Cylon Raider from '78 hanging above me right now in my home studio. Jeeze... I just realized that they're both 45 years old!

I absolutely loved this show as a kid, along with Buck Rogers, too bad both shows didn't last very long.

Pretty lame when you this back now. 🙄🙄

As the old saying goes. If you want peace you must be prepared for war. The enemy knows this and I'm not talking about a tv show either. Peace always comes at a high price.

Jane Seymour is stunning

i remember this seen from childhood

Lo que te tragabas cuando veias esta serie...ahora salen demasiadas preguntas....donde estan las baterias antiareas???

So 9/11 then…

👛🤬🫵💬STUPID MUTHA FUCKA ITS DEAD!!!!!!!

Cylon Centurion 1: "See that peace sign?"

Cylon Centurion 2: "Yes."

Cylon Centurion 1: "Imma blow it up."

Cylon Centurion 2: "lol"

The leader scooching his chair around with his legs 😂. No electric hairs in that century

I can't get over how the cyclons and the Mandalorians helmet face are so similar.

Who polishes the cylons?

Amazing how they are all just sitting there like “well this is interesting” almost like they forgot they were on a warship….

Looks as if the cylons are bringing freedom again

Jane Seymour, awesome! I remember this show had a lot of cool actors/actresses.

This will happen in U.K. soon
The visitors will receive a call to arms and on that day …….

I will say …….. I told you so …… we all told you so

Now look what you have done

I love the fact that Caprica's skyscrapers were in the shapes of Pyramids a kind of blessing to their forefathers Egyptian.

I can't believe Daft Punk as done this

They should have motorized the chair the Imperious Leader was sitting on. He looked silly enough already. Seeing his legs shuffle about when he turned himself around really made it hard to take him seriously.
