Brian: No, I do not know the name of the Asian actress from year one. She wass used quite a bit throughout much of the first season, but I have never seen her name anywhere. There were also a lot of Italian extras due to the RAI investment. I know that the names of all these various actors appear on the many call sheets, which presumably are in the files for the show. Also, there would be records kept elsewhere in England as to who was used during the series. I would bet that Carlton has all of this info and much more.

Starbuck says that maybe he should go along... just in case. Apollo insists they'll be fine. It's not like they're at war anymore, right? Lots of other scenes were deleted in the interests of saving time for the all-important commercials. Sad, but true.

Hi all, Watching Twilight Zone on Sci-Fi channel a few weeks ago, I saw our brave commander playing a gun-slinger with a bad attitude. Was that the first season episode that he was in? Oh yes, I watched the classic sci-fi film THINGS TO COME (1936), the other day and noticed in the opening credits a Charles Chrichton (sp?) as a film editer. I wonder if this the same fellow who did such great directing in 1999? By the way, the film is pretty good if one bears in mind when it was made. Ralph Richardson steals the show, with a brilliant performance.

Yes, this is really outrageous. I think that it is about time that they got another flood of mail on this. In fact, I think that its about time that I sent them another email.

I don't know which episode you saw, but as far as I'm concerned, there was only one watchable ep in Galactica 1980 (the original series wasn't that good either...): it's called "Return of Starbuck" (I'm not sure, but I think it was the final episode of the season). It may not be brilliant, but it sure beats all the others. If you enjoyed the original BSG, I think you'll like this one too. It's a nice, character driven story about Starbuck and a Cylon Centurion, both stranded on a desert planet, and the relationship they develop. It's been a long time since I saw it, but I remember I liked it back then :-) If you do watch it, let me know what you think...
