Request for information: Can anyone post the text of the UFO disclaimer that aired at the end of each Galactica 1980 episode? Does anyone know why it was included?
Request for Screencapture
If anybody could find/post a capture of "Col. Boomer", I'd like to use it to create a Boomer (1980). --Steelviper 12:06, 6 January 2006 (EST)
Fleet Link
Should we use [[The Fleet]] or [[The Fleet (TOS)]]? The latter is somewhat misleading (though only somewhat), but the former leads only to a disambiguation page. I think we should use the former until we can get [[The Fleet (1980)]] going. That way, we can still easily find the pages that should link to 1980 when we need to do another find and replace run. --Day 00:08, 15 January 2006 (EST)
- It's not exactly the pinnacle of consistancy and elegance, but since there's probably little content specific to just the 1980 fleet, I'd link to The Fleet (TOS), and footnote the relevant details there. --Peter Farago 04:14, 15 January 2006 (EST)
THE DAY THEY KIDNAPPED CLEOPATRA
There should be some information about the future episodes of this series. The script for this episode can be found in http://www.blast.net/hart/DayThey.htm. Other scripts are in http://www.blast.net/hart/Scripts.htm --Jcnventura 10:19, 16 March 2006 (CST)
- My admiration for anyone willing to document this is considerable, but I must ask if you can provide a second source to corroborate that site. --Peter Farago 20:10, 16 March 2006 (CST)
- There are several sites that mention the name of the episode, but only this one has the script summary. After having read it, it is stupid enough to validate as an episode of G1980... :) I have seen many good information sources on Galactica go down over the years, so I would like to write about it here. The only way to make sure is to try to buy the script on ebay one of these days. I will create the articles and then we can discuss if they should be deleted because we can't verify it at multiple sources. -- Jcnventura 04:12, 17 March 2006 (CST)
- My only concern is verifying that this isn't fanficton before we report on it here. --Peter Farago 04:24, 17 March 2006 (CST)
- I've heard of it as well. It is a valid script, like "Wheel of Fire" (I believe that to be the name). It was one of the few scripts that were in the works before ABC (thankfully) pulled the plug on G80. -- Joe Beaudoin 08:22, 17 March 2006 (CST)
DVD
A DVD of the 1980 series is on sale from ebay.
--Grafix 10:35, 19 April 2006 (CDT)
- Note the TV rating on the upper left. Plus... all 10 episodes on 1 DVD? This has to be some sort of a broadcast quality squeezed onto 1 dvd rather than a DVD quality release. It'd no doubt be handy to have it just for viewing purposes, but it looks like it's pretty bootleg/unofficial. --Steelviper 10:41, 19 April 2006 (CDT)
- Yes, probably avi standard but it could be worth it for a fiver. --Grafix 10:51, 19 April 2006 (CDT)
1980 Marathon on Scifi 6/20
It appears there will be something of a 1980 marathon on tomorrow. I've set up a season pass to try to pick it up, and I'll double check it when I get home. I'm not terribly excited at the prospect, but it does open a potential source for getting screen captures for anybody interested in doing so. --Steelviper 11:18, 19 June 2006 (CDT)
- I managed to record all 8 hours of it, so I've got all of 1980 on my Tivo box except for super scouts (I and II). --Steelviper 10:38, 22 June 2006 (CDT)
- "except for super scouts" not a great loss :P --Mercifull 10:51, 22 June 2006 (CDT)
