The BBC has acquired beloved cult sci-fi series Battlestar Galactica from NBC/Universal Global Distribution and is bringing it to BBC iPlayer as a box set.
Originally broadcast between 2004 and 2009, every episode of the critically acclaimed show will be available to watch on iPlayer from 5 September, when the series will begin being broadcast on BBC Two at 9.45pm.

This is where the BBC make mistakes. This is one of the best tv series ever made and they have struck gold if they have got the broadcast rights to it. It should be shown as primetime tv around 6 ish.

The 1998 series was better. The 2004 series was a reboot, lasted longer but to me was lacking.

It’s wholly unsuitable for broadcast before the 9pm watershed. It is also unlikely to be of mass-audience appeal in the U.K - those that are interested in it will seek it out. It was originally broadcast on Sky One and has never been free-to-air anywhere so there will easily be enough of an audience to justify the slot it’s been given. Heck I might even tune in for it ... I started re-watching it on Prime some months ago but as is their way they took it off Prime Inclusive long before I got all the way through it.

It was my poor attempt at a joke. Presumably Pip made a typo saying the first season of BSG was made in 1998 and the follow up (1980) was somehow made prior to it so I said the show's producers are inverted (moving backwards in time) because that is the theme of Tenet.

I did make a typo. The original Battlestar Galactica was 1978.
