 | | Battlestar Galactica was created in 1978 a year after the Star Wars, and was essentially a brazen attempt by ABC television to cash in on the mammoth unexpected success of that film. |
 | | When the 12 colonies of man are annihilated by the robotic Cylons, the only surviving Battlestar, Galactica, assembles a small fleet of dilapidated civilian ships and makes a run for it with the survivors, hoping to find the legendary 13th tribe who may have settled on a distant, mythical planet called Earth. |
 | | After cancellation there was a short-lived follow-up series, Galactica 1980, in which the Galactica did in fact reach its destination, but it was so irredeemably awful through its 10 episodes that it’s not really considered canon and is probably best left buried. |
