Talk about Battlestar Galactica for whichever series you want. You've got the 78 series, the 2004 series and the upcoming series we know next to nothing about.


But we don't talk about Galactica 1980

That's fair enough

The original ending, if I recall correctly, was going to involve Galatica's final jump not just be to Earth, but into Earth's atmosphere and it plummeting to the ground and crashlanding somewhere in South America so that everyone was kind of forced to give up their their tech and stick it out on Earth because the center of their civilization was now a pancaked mess of metal in a crater in the Amazon. The 500,000 year flash forward would have had modern day scientists discovering the Galactica's wreckage on ground penetrating sonar rather than Hera's body as Mitochondrial Eve.

I think it was scrapped because the science advisor flat out told them that the crash would not only kill everyone aboard Galactica, but also result in a nuclear winter that would wipe out all life on Earth given Galactica's size and speed upon impact.

or because they realised that's the exact same point that the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy TV show ends on.

I hadn’t thought of that. Yeah, it’s fairly similar to “I, Borg”. No Helo saving the day in that one, though; Picard independently realizes that genocide is bad and doesn’t follow through with the plan.

Picard is a better person than both Adams and especially Roslin.

Picard is a better person than [I[everyone is all of sci-fi[/I]
