On September 17, 1978, the original Battlestar Galactica premiered as a three hour edition of the ABC Sunday Night Movie. The broadcast was delayed by a half hour on the west coast for an ABC News Special Report involving the signing of the peace accord between Israel and Egypt. I remember my brother and I begging our parents to let us stay up past our bedtimes so we could watch the entire broadcast. John(my brother) saw the crappy edited feature film when he was in Canada with a buddy of his and his buddy's parents in the summer of 1978. As a kid, I had the entire run of the Marvel Comics series, and several of the Mattel toys including the missile firing colonial viper and cylon raider. I still have a few of the novelizations of the TV episodes and the photonovel. This and The Six Million Dollar Man were two shows of the 1970's which have had a big impact on my life. That's about it for now. As always, have a good one and behave yourselves. Thanks for reading.
