QUOTES

  • Adama: This is the Commander. Moments ago this ship received word of a Cylon attack against our homeworlds is underway. We do not know the size or the disposition or the strength of the enemy forces, but all indications point to a massive assault against Colonial defenses. Admiral Nagala has taken personal command of the fleet aboard the battlestar Atlantia following the complete destruction of Picon Fleet Headquarters in the first wave of the attacks. How, why, doesn't really matter now. What does matter is that as of this moment, we are at war. edit »
  • Tyrol: All right, people. This is what we do. We're the best. So let's get the old girl ready to roll, and kick some Cylon ass! edit »
  • Apollo: The President has given me a direct order.
    Adama: You're talking about the secretary of education! We're in the middle of a war, and you're taking orders from a schoolteacher? edit »
  • Starbuck: Why can't we use the starboard launch?
    Tyrol: It's a gift shop now.
    Starbuck: Frak me. edit »
  • Helo: Hey, aren't you Gaius Baltar?
    Baltar: (startled) I haven't done anything! edit »

NOTES

  • The woman in the picture that Col. Tigh burns with a cigar is not the actress that eventually plays his wife in the regular series. edit »
  • Part 1.0 and Part 1.5 initially aired on the same night as the first part of a 4-hour miniseries.

    The miniseries has been divided into Parts 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 in this guide because iTunes divided the miniseries into four (unequal) parts. edit »
  • At the time, this was the third most watched program on the Sci Fi Channel ever, surpassed only by Frank Herbert's Dune and Steven Spielberg Presents Taken. edit »

ALLUSIONS

  • The Swearing-in of Lyndon B. Johnson
    The Camera angles used during Roslin's swearing-in ceremony are very similar to those used in Lyndon B. Johnson's swearing-in ceremony aboard Air Force One shortly after the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. edit »
