Saturday night, the lithuanian channel TV3 broadcasted for the first time ever in Lithuania the episode "pilote" of Battlestar Galactica season 1. It was awfully dubbed in Lithuanian but I watched it around 1 am (why so late?) with real pleasure.
2 Striking images printed in my memory:
- A full squad of vipers being anihilated without a fight by two Cylons ships: they used a disabling beam which neutralized all the onboard electronics and propulsion of the human interceptors, followed by a salvo of auto guided missiles. There was no chances of survival to the 20 or so interceptors which became a cloud of metal coffins derivating helplessly in the void. Actually, one ship escaped and landed on Caprica.2 Striking images printed in my memory:
- The bombing of Caprica by the Cylons with nuclear weapons. A group of human found a small military ship landcrashed on a grassy land (the ship I am talking about above). The 2 men crew managed to fix it. At the horizon, nuclear blasts and atomic mushrooms, the group of human decides who can board the small ship and who will stay on the doomed planet.
Pure moment of science fiction. It really reminded me my saturdays afternoon, decades ago, when I was watching avidly those sci fi series: Galactica, Buck Rogers, Star Trek, Planet of apes...
I think I will really like this first season of Galactica, the episode are broadcasted the saturday, very late.
One other thing I wanted to say: "Lost": Get lost! This serie sucks so much. Even my wife gave up watching it. Why can't they move it to saturday late at night and put Galactica on tuesday evening at 10 pm instead?
Ha, and forget the awfull lithuanian dubbing, keep the original version and put subtitles if you want. That would be my two 5 cents advices.
I do hope they also bought season 2 & 3...
If you wanted to know how a Cylon looks like in this new serie, here it is:
Scary, isn't it?
