In my late teens just after I left home Star Trek came along. I felt about it like you do about BG. And it also had spiritual overtones, some not hidden at all. I remember one very well. It was a planet they discovered and I forget what all the problem was, but the Trekkers understood that they were sun worshippers. In the end, the found out that they had misunderstood: the people were Son worshippers. After reading the article above, I would probably give Batllestar Galactica a try if I watched TV. I have a very small black and white that I used to turn on once a week for Star Trek, but I haven't turned it on in over a year and am a little reluctant to give up the hour. I know how it goes--once I begin watching it, I'll probably keep coming back. Maybe after I clear up my To do list a bit more. :-) Anita Battlestar Galactica came out in 1978 according to this article and by that time I was 32.

After reading the article above, I would probably give Batllestar Galactica a try if I watched TV. I have a very small black and white that I used to turn on once a week for Star Trek, but I haven’t turned it on in over a year and am a little reluctant to give up the hour. I know how it goes–once I begin watching it, I’ll probably keep coming back. Maybe after I clear up my To do list a bit more. :-)
