The original ‘Battlestar Galactica’ TV series has landed on the Horror Channel

Weeknights at 8pm until 10th May.

The original Battlestar Galactica TV series has landed on Horror Channel in the UK as of this very week.  The original series will be aired at 8pm on weekdays from Wednesday March 24. 8pm until the 10th May.

The Emmy-winning show depicts the epic futuristic battle between the last remaining population of humans and their evil robotic nemeses – the Cylons. Spiralling through space on their titular fleet, the human forces, led by Commander Adama (Lorne Greene), search the Universe for the last known plant refuge – Earth. Also stars Richard Hatch as Captain Apollo (a role that earned him a Golden Globe nomination for best actor in a television series), and Dirk Benedict as Lieutenant Starbuck, the womanizing, cigar-smoking, card playing and incredibly skilled Colonial Warrior.

Although the series was cancelled after 24 episodes, a write-in campaign revived the show as Galactica 1980 with 10 episodes. Books have also been written continuing the stories and Battlestar Galactica was remade in the early 2000s with a reimagined miniseries and a weekly series.

Check out the epic trailer for the series in the player below.
