Summary[edit]
- Following the discovery Kobol, the arrest of Laura Roslin, and the attempted assassination of William Adama, the Fleet finds itself thrust in more peril than they originally imagined.
Pivotal Plot Points[edit]
- Colonel Tigh commands the Fleet while Adama is incapacitated, instituting martial law.
- After the "Gideon massacre", the Fleet divides into two factions: one which supports Adama, and one which supports Roslin/Zarek.
- Kara "Starbuck" Thrace and Karl "Helo" Agathon discover a Colonial resistance movement on Caprica.
- The Cylons have been rounding up human females in order to artificially inseminate them with hybrid ovum, creating breeding farms over Caprica. Their attempts have been unsuccessful.
- An expedition to Kobol finds instructions that may lead the Fleet to Earth inside the Tomb of Athena.
- Starbuck and Helo return to the Galactica from Caprica; Helo becomes ostracized due to his relationship with Sharon Valerii, who is pregnant with the first successful Human-Cylon hybrid child.
- Galactica 's copy of Sharon Valerii is killed by Cally.
- Roslin and the Quorum of Twelve are re-instituted.
- Two additional Humano-Cylons are revealed: Simon and D'anna Biers.
- Chief Galen Tyrol and his team build a prototype stealth fighter craft, the Blackbird.

Official Statements[edit]
- "Please do something about the consumables questions; fuel, food, ammo, clothing etc., where is this stuff coming from?"
- Water is addressed in... uh, "Water." Fuel is addressed in "Hand of God". Other consumables will be addressed in the second season. --

- Regarding Second Season Renewal
- So it's official: we're doing a second season.
- To say that this is happy news is to indulge in a display of understatement. The road to television success is a long one, littered with various hurdles, all of which must be vaulted: the studio pitch session, the network pitch, the story outline, the first draft script, the second draft script, the green-light to produce the pilot, casting the pilot, making the pilot, ordering the series, producing the series, getting the reviews, getting an audience, and then.... getting a second season. We've managed to clear that hurdle and it feels frakking good.
- We've been working on the first six episodes for a couple of months now and we're gearing up to prep them for filming, probably in late March. Season Two will be heavily influenced by the end of Season One, so it's hard to get into anything remotely specific until the last episode has aired in the US. I could say... well... er... not much. --
From RDM's Sci-Fi Channel Blog
- "Will we ever get any more of the back story to the Cylon Wars?, ie What started them and how did the Colonists (sic) drive them away."
- We will see more of this backstory as the series unfolds. Some of the inter-war period will be explored in the first few episodes of Season 2. Other tales of the first Cylon Wars will be filled in eventually. --
From RDM's Sci-Fi Channel Blog
- "Will we see any of the original cast apart from Richard Hatch. "
- It's possible, but not yet on the board. --
From RDM's Sci-Fi Channel Blog
- "Please show more of the blue collar guys keeping everything in check on the other ships. Guys that would have clocked out and gone home had the holocaust not happened. Not really a question sorry."
- We have plans for this in the second season. Cally, for instance, never planned to stay in the service and her enlistment was nearly up at the time of the attack. --
From RDM's Sci-Fi Channel Blog
- "Will there be any development between characters on what distinguishes a Sagittaran from Caprican, Virgon, or any of the 12 Colonies? Did they develop separately their own cultures and even different religions on their worlds? I'm glad the element of different worlds or nationalities was kept in the show."
- This is an area we didn't get a chance to get very far with in the first season, and I'm hoping we explore more fully in the second. I think that some of the Colonies have developed very different cultures and attitudes from one another and that it's rich ground for us. We alluded to some differences here and there, but mostly we talked about the "Federal" (for lack of a better word) governmental structures. We do know that there was a sizable opposition to the Colonial government. Leoben claimed to be an arms dealer supplying freedom fighters or terrorists, depending on your point of view, and Tom Zarek was the jailed leader of a sometimes violent opposition, so it stands to reason that there are a wide variety of views, some of which come into violent conflict with one another. It's also worth bearing in mind that one of the uses for which the Cylons were originally used by the Colonies was as soldiers in their wars against one another. --
From RDM's Sci-Fi Channel Blog
- "Granted that a season two at this point is just ink on paper punctuated by a big question mark, but I have a “practical” question to ask. Should the series move forward, to what extent would you want to explore the practical issues of life in the fleet–you’ve touched on the basics of food, fuel and water, but how about problems such as finding enough doctors to treat the population, providing life support on ships not originally intended as passenger vessels and dealing with the inevitable fiefdoms arising on these mix and match metal life rafts? "
- I would very much like to continue exploring these issues in the second year and beyond. I'm intrigued by playing the situation as realistically as dramatically possible and I think these sorts of questions are wonderful material for the show. --
From RDM's Sci-Fi Channel Blog
- Jamie Bamber discusses the results of Lee Adama's actions in "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II":'
- I think I've read four scripts out of the 20, so I don't know that much. But the Galactica still needs him despite themselves. He's a prisoner because of what he's done, but he's still needed because when situations arise he's still one of the best pilots. There aren't that many pilots full stop.
- He's used to command, he's used to following orders. So when the Cylons are pressing [see: Valley of Darkness] he has to come out of the brig. But he has to give his word, his parole, that when he's off-duty he'll return to his prison. He's in a strange limbo of finding himself being given authority but having none, it's a strange situation he finds himself in. [1]
