Battlestar Galactica

Seen it?

1978 | 1 seasons | Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Drama

Weeknight Watch

Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

It's still drawing plenty of interest, but a lukewarm 7.1 out of 10 from audiences and a short run with a modest audience held it back. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for sci-fi fans. If you loved Battlestar Galactica or Star Trek: The Next Generation, start here.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
1 season: a few weeks of evenings.
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • Made in 1978: an older pace and style.

When the 12 Colonies of Man are wiped out by a cybernetic race called the Cylons, Commander Adama and the crew of the battlestar Galactica lead a ragtag fleet of human survivors in search of a "mythical planet" called Earth.
