Battlestar Galactica: Revisited (10pm) will serve up the essential
information on the series' past three seasons, providing the
uninitiated with an introduction to the characters, relation****ps and
spine-tingling drama that have captured the imagination of audiences
around the world. Galactica's executive producers, Ronald D. Moore and
David Eick serve as guides, providing insights and revelations about
the critically-acclaimed series.
Battlestar Galactica: The Phenomenon (10:30pm) is a celebrity-studded
celebration of the show's impact on pop culture. Interviewees,
including Seth Green, country music's Top Male Vocalist of 2007 Brad
Paisley, and The Soup's Joel McHale, and others, wax poetic about why
Battlestar Galactica is one of the best frakkin' shows on television.
As season 4 opens, the last remnants of humanity continue their search
for a new home, the thin line that separates them from the rapidly
evolving Cylons is being redrawn. Galactica's crew, rocked by
Starbuck's sudden and mysterious return from the dead and her claims
that she has been to Earth and can lead them there attempts to make
sense of the inexplicable. Meanwhile, four members of the fleet are
still reeling from the revelation that they are Cylons and have been
all along.
Battlestar Galactica is the gripping saga of humanity's last remnants
and their struggle to find a new home while fleeing from their deadly
Cylon enemies. Redefining the space opera with its gritty realism,
Galactica's intensity, issues-driven topicality, and command
performances have garnered it numerous awards, including an Emmy and
the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award. The show was recognized
by the American Film Institute (AFI) as one of the most outstanding
programs of the year two years running. The series is from Universal
Media Studios and is executive produced by Ronald D. Moore and David
Eick. The outstanding ensemble cast is led by Edward James Olmos, Mary
McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, Tricia Helfer
and Grace Park.
