"Battlestar Galactica" is a cult science fiction series based on the 1978 show of the same name. Despite the fact that the original only lasted for a year, it spawned a legion of fans. In 2003, a two-part remake was released, which led to the creation of a full-fledged television series. The story is set in the distant future, when the human race is on the brink of extinction. The crew of a spaceship embarks on a search for a new world, while also battling an advanced cybernetic civilization.
