	* "The Magnificent Warriors" is the second of the two Western episodes of ''Battlestar Galactica''.

Where "The Lost Warrior" was a blatant rip off of ''Shane'', "Magnificent Warriors" is a blatant rip off of ''The Magnificent Seven'' right down to the title.
	* This episode is a light hearted adventure which plays counter to the more somber tone that underlies the series. It has of course been argued that such radical variations in tone prevented the series from truly exploring the dramatic underpinnings of its premise, but this was a television program that was conceived of as light family fare in any case, and this episode certainly fits that bill.		* This episode is a light-hearted adventure which plays counter to the more somber tone that underlies the series.

	* This episode contains a few comedic sequences, chief of which is {{TOS\|Adama}}'s visit to [[Belloby\|Siress Belloby]]'s chambers to try and court her, and in so doing obtain access to her old power generator or "energizer." Embarrassed and nervous, Adama's ploy is only partially successful as the wily Siress maneuvers him into letting her come down to the planet, and to a longer term relationship. Belloby is ably portrayed by Brett Somers, who at the time was famous as one of the wittier regulars on the successful game show ''The Match Game''. It seems the role of the Siress was perhaps created with Brett in mind.		* This episode contains a few comedic sequences, chief of which is {{TOS\|Adama}}'s visit to [[Belloby\|Siress Belloby]]'s chambers to try and court her, and in so doing obtain access to her old power generator or "energizer."
