What the Frak is Going On?

Galactica is probably my favorite television show ever. It's Space Opera, with a capital "O", but it's very human scaled at the same time.

I am continually amazed that they were able to whittle the late 70s bombastic Glen Larson albatross down to a beautiful, story-driven show about the power of love.



Here is a short film recapping the first 3 seasons, hitting all the major arcs of the show, in 8 minutes. It's very compressed, as indicated by the sped-up narrator, but it is amazingly mostly there. All you're missing is the details.

I don't know if they could have pulled it off, otherwise.
