Battlestar is one of those rare shows, those that are able to challenge you intellectually, morally AND emotionally, and I'm glad it touched you as much as it did for me years ago. Only those can make you cry genuine tears. And those are good tears!

Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe we see the warp key for the 1st time in the mini series when the Galactica is doing a jump for the first time after the Cylon attack. 💚

Note: Yes, you saw the jump keys- the first time was in the pilot. (And retrieving them was one of Sharon's missions on New Caprica) And yeah, losing Kat was rough- and a damn shame too (Luciana was such a fun lass)

Also, don't forget that they were using combat pilots to assist the CIVILIAN SHIPS; the civilian pilots weren't used to flying in those conditions and wouldn't have the hardened gear, so they were needed (and could only take one trip each) but there were roughly 50-60 ships to needed to go thru, and divide that by available pilots who could handle the jumps.

@@Sephiroth144 fewer than 50 ships at this point. During the election at end of S2 it was exactly 50. I counted the lists on the voting boards! They lost Cloud Nine and two or three others to Gina's nuke, then Pegasus, now two more. That's six or seven fewer ships that we can count - could be another one or two. Best case is there are 44 ships left.

@@Mertztillithurts FYI, it was 57 ships in the election (at least as far as the prop was concerned; though that still means they lost 7 ships post-Olympic Carrier, which I don't really remember happening... but it's 19 per column) That said, its likely some ships didn't make it off New Caprica (due to enemy damage or a lack of maintenance)

How did I not get a FaceBook Alert for Mikey's Birthday?!? What's wrong with this world? Loved the hot take by Mike at the end about Kat's promotion. And Joe and Mikey having none of it. Really though you're missing the plot line of D'ana. She made drawings of her passage through death back to life. That has to count for something? To be fair I paid no attention to that either during a thousand re-watches of the show. Guess I'm not 'too noticing' to have seen it. Great reaction guys! The next episode is one of my favorites of the entire series.

I have some dual feels about this episode : On one hand, it's a great Kat episode and a superb "send off" . On the other hand ... -- as a continuation of the Kat-Starbuck rivalry / death - dance ... -- the one that we thought had peaked with the 'Scar' Cylon story & the "my cup has raneth dry ..." line from Kat ... --- for that rivalry, this was something of a lackluster ending, as Starbuck seemed to have reset her angst against Kat to zero, and started bitching at/to her again . In a way they pigeonholed Starbuck into the antagonist character, because Kat had no known beef with anyone else . In other news, the radiation that they encountered was a portion of solar radiation of a nearby sun to their target planet, so that caused the extreme hull degradation the we saw . They'll get back to that.

Also , about that last bit of commentary about Adama promoting Kat to CAG -- that was not a "hallow" act, but rather a reference to a military tradition in some militaries around the world, where a fallen soldier gets promoted one rank posthumously . As it was obvious to everyone that Kat was dying, Adama did a "promotion near death" instead of the"promotion after death" , when the person getting promoted could still appreciate it for a short while . Ronald D. Moor , the creator behind this version of Battlestar Galactica served in the US Navy, so he brought with him some Navy ideas, just like Gene Roddenberry who created Star Trek did back in the 1960's .

She wasn't one of my favorite characters, but she became boosted up there. Her back story was beautifully crafted. She did wrong as a civilian. She tried to, and successfully, redeem herself in anyway she can. Admiral Adama coming in and sitting with her broke me in a way I didn't think Kat / Adama could

I agree. I never liked Kat. Just felt like she was trying to be Starbuck and just wasn't good at it. I would have liked her a lot more if she was more humble in her conflict with Starbuck. She doesn't have to be perfect, but she didn't need to be so acerbic and confrontational.

Special homage here to the OG BSG, the Nova Madigon Starfield crossing to Carrilon. 🫡 Also, FYI, The military has a tradition of Posthumous promotions for deaths in the line of duty.... Especially in cases of valor where recognition is warranted.
