Requesting some clarifications...
I caught only about the last 45 min. of the show, but am I inferring correctly that:
1) the Galactica was about to be mothballed?
2) the Galactica's squadrons of Mk. II Vipers were also an obscelete (i.e. non-"frontline") model?
3) while the show hasn't outright "said so", am I to understand that the frontline Vipers all went TU because of their reliance on some high-tech/computer/software against which the Cylon's employed an effective "disabling ray/probe"--the same ray which didn't affect the Mk. II's?
TIA!

Thats about it in a nutshell. I watched the late showing last night after getting off work. I really had some reservations about the remake since I used to love the show as a kid. The original pilot was released in theatres and had the most humongous seat shaking sound system. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I forget what it was called. Anyways, I was actually quite surprised that the show was as good as it was considering it was a remake and also made by the sci-fi channel.(in my opinion they make a lot of crappy shows) I think you do have to let it stand on its own. Got my vcr set for tonights show!
