Galactica 1980

1980 · 1 season

A goofy, dated sci-fi romp that feels like a cheap Saturday-morning serial, earnest but often unintentionally funny.

Tagline: The great ship Galactica, our home for these many years we've endured the wilderness of space. And now, we near the end of our journey: we have, at last, found Earth.
Overview: 30 years after the original Battlestar Galactica series. Upon reaching Earth, the inhabitants of the renegade starfleet take action when they realize earthlings aren't advanced enough to help battle the Cylons.
How it feels: Campy, absurd, earnest and melancholic. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Survival, technology, family, identity
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
