Revision as of 01:35, 6 May 2020

This page is silly.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.


This page relates to heavy drinking (both of characters and wiki contributors) as a result of gaffes from the Re-imagined Series.
For a drinking game related to the Original Series, see External links below.
Finally, for information that will improve gnashing of your teeth or suicidal tendencies, please watch "Galactica 1980."


Bottoms up, Colonel.

Other TV shows have had drinking games adapted from the venerable "Hi, Bob!" game, among others. The new "Battlestar Galactica" series has sadly failed to stop Battlestar Wiki's contributors from doing the same after noticing repeated plot points, parallels to current events, characterizations, and other silliness.

You might consider creating your own Cylon Shooters for use in the game by following the recipe given by actors Grace Park and Tahmoh Penikett.

Official Statements[edit]

From a Rolling Stone September 2006 Magazine interview of Katee Sackhoff

"Four years ago, I had older men and twelve-year-olds coming up to me," she says. "Now I get sorority girls telling me, 'We watch the show and drink every time you say "frak," hit someone or sleep with someone.' And I'm thinking, 'This is why I didn't go to college.'"
