What is Battlestar GalacticaBattlestar Galactica, is a television series made by Universal in 1978 and 1979, (with a sequel in 1980). Its creator (and executive producer) is Glen A. Larson, famous for other TV-series like Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, The Six Million Dollar Man (only the first episodes), Knight Rider, The Fall Guy and Magnum P.I. Other famous people involved in the production are the producer Leslie Stevens, who made The Outer Limits, and John Dykstra, who made the special effects in movies like Star Wars. The most famous actors in the regular cast include Lorne Greene as Adama (Bonanza), Richard Hatch as Apollo (The Streets of San Francisco), and Dirk Benedict as Starbuck (A-Team). And with guest stars like Britt Ekland, Fred Astaire, Lloyd Bridges, Jane Seymore and Rick Springfield, the show is not all too bad if you look at it that way. Battlestar Galactica is a story about a large spaceship called Galactica, which leads a fleet of rag tag ships with the last known survivors of the human kind. An evil race of robots called Cylons destroyed their twelve home planets. Those twelve colonies were settled by twelve tribes of humans from the planet Kobol. Galactica, as the last surviving battlestar from the Cylon attack of the colonies, leads all the surviving people in search for a new planet to live on. But the Cylons are still on their tail, with human extinction as their goal... However, there is an old legend that tells of a thirteenth tribe from the planet Kobol that settled a planet, which just happened to be called, yes you guessed it Earth. So with Earth as their only hope, they set off across space, finding clues here and there of that Earth actually exists.
