    Fun to watch but not a patch on the first series.
  

*by F***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 February 2015*

I was there at the time this show was aired in the UK. I was around the 6 years old mark when the original BSG was broadcast so I guess I was 8 maybe when this was aired in the UK.I remember being extremely upset that three quarters of the original cast were missing, Apollo and Starbuck, Colonel Tye and all the secondary characters who I had grown to love were gone. Maybe that is why I always had a negative memory of this not being as good as it should have been back then.A reason why I was hesitant to purchase the second series on release, but I being tempted ended up when the price lowered to a level where I could give it a go. If you see it through the eyes of one who was there at the time, it's really not as bad as I remember it being, it lacks the bigger budget effects and battles that season 1 featured but i guess this is a different type of story.The story basics are that it is now an unspecified number of years on from the end of series 1. The Galactica and it's rag tag convoy have at last found the Earth. Sadly, we are in no fit state, technically or psychologically, to accept or even help our new brothers from the stars. To help the Galacticans settlement on the earth and perhaps help our advancement so we can better fight the recently discovered Cylon threat, multiple teams consisting of two Colonial Warrior each are sent to many nations on Earth to contact scientific communities, Governments and so on. Not surprisingly we focus on the team sent to the USA who are the tall and dark Troy, originally the step son of Captain Apollo who was known as Boxy, who is now a quiet and serious Warrior now in his early 30's. He is partnered with his buddy Dylon, a younger, stocky and fair haired Colonial Warrior who provides a little comedy in their journey.The two warriors arrive on Earth and experience all kinds of strange adventures, contact scientists and get into all kinds of trouble during their search help mankind, fight the Cylon threat that has recently been uncovered and attempt to assimilate a large group of children into the Earth's society. Help on Earth comes from a female reporter, a male scientist and the bad guy angle comes from a Galactican renegade and certain members of the USA Air Force that are hunting our Heroes down.On the whole the stories are all consecutive, so start from Episode 1 and go through till the end. It's basically for the kids that were in 1980, so expect simplistic plots, a fair amount of moral teachings and kids that know more than the adults. Fewer space battles and Cylons makes for less excitement, the stories are generally more sedate the first series, definitely cheaper and have an air of being written with no over all game plan in mind, just novel episode ideas that are loosely strung together in some form.Instead of colonial vipers we have futuristic flying motorbikes, made to blend in with Earth bikes, which of course look just about nothing like Earth bikes, and there are wonderful shields that render the users, bikes and Vipers invisible. These as you can imagine come in handy for their adventures on Earth.Adama is still there, many years older and wiser but somehow is a shadow of his former self from the first series, he seems reduced to play second fiddle to a new character, the child genius who has all the answers, and to be honest, any child genius character can start to grate on the nerves after a while. The last episode is an oddity, and frankly it wasted the one and only returning character in a pretty dud story line.So, it may appear that there are many negatives here, and I guess there are but i actually found it quite fun in a nostalgic way, remembering things from my childhood as the series went on. It misses the battles and characters from the first series.

    This arrived last year for Christmas

I love this series and it is about 11 years after the series with Apollo, Starbucks and Boomer. They found Earth and it was mostly about stories of Troy and Dillon and the scouts. The cylons were also involved in the story. I am most impressed with this product.

    "We have at last reached Earth."

Galactica 1980 is one of those curious anomalies in the Battlestar universe in that nearly all fans choose to completely ignore it from the continuity and it has not been included in any of the comics, graphic novels or books published since the 70's. That said, it's really not as bad as people make it out to be and there are some genuinely good moments in the series.The main arc of the story is set 20 years after the end of the original Battlestar Galactica series. Adama has finally led the Galactica and her fleet to Earth with the help of Doctor Zee, a child with a highly developed mind and consciousness who was born of a colonial warrior and a seraph (see episode 10) and sent to them years ago.However, their discovery heralds a darker problem - Doctor Zee warns Adama that they cannot land on Earth. Arriving in the year 1980, Earth and it's people are in no fit state to help the Galactica or to defend themselves from the Cylon empire. With the Cylons closing in on the Galactica, the fleet will have to leave and draw their enemy away from the 13th tribe.They send down covert teams to explore Earth and to make contact with the inhabitants, with the intention of slowly helping Earth's scientists with present day problems. There are those among the council who believe that they should change Earth by whatever means necessary and seek to employ drastic methods to alter technology and history.One of the teams sent to North America is Troy, a grown up Boxey, and Dillon. They have problems on their first assignment, especially with blending in, understanding humans and trying to remain inconspicuous, often with humorous results. Their missions are further complicated by the actions of renegade council member Xavier.Out of the ten episodes there are three that stand head and shoulders above the rest. The two part `The Night The Cylons Landed' is a great story when a new Cylon Raider and the next generation of Cylons crash land on Earth. They Cylons are now building machines that look like humans - an idea which is key to the new series. With one Cylon and one Centurion loose on Earth on Halloween (when else!) we get a great story with some funny one-liners from the cast.The final episode `The Return Of Starbuck' is arguably the best of the bunch and explains what happened to our favourite loveable rogue when his viper is shot down in battle stranding him on a desert planet. He finds the wreck of a Cylon Raider and rebuilds one of the Centurions in an effort to stave off going crazy by himself. There are some truly comical moments in this one, teaching the Cylon Pyramid, how humans give birth and the talks about the need for female companionship.Adama, Boomer and Starbuck are the only three of the original series cast to feature in the show as the focus is primarily on Troy and Dillon. Troy is played by Kent McCord (who has been in numerous sci-fi shows) and Dillion is played by Barry Van Dyke (yes, that guy who is also in Diagnosis Murder!) and the interplay between them is similar to the Apollo / Starbuck relationship of the original series. Their slow adaptation to life on Earth leads to some funny moments and their views on what we are like as a species allowed the episodes to make commentary on current events like nuclear power, pollution and health care.They only made ten episodes, mainly multi-part stories so you only get six adventures in total. Alas, the series suffers from aiming the show at a child audience rather than maintaining the standards of the first series and trying to keep the loyal fan base they had established. They also employed several rather more far-fetched scenarios which had never been required in the Battlestar universe such as time travel, cloaking devices and everyone remembers the flying motorcycles. While they assist the plot in certain areas they also hinder it badly in others.The set is released on 2 discs but has no extras at all, just the ten episodes.So, all in all, not a bad piece of 80's nostalgia but definitely one for true completists only. Launch when ready!
