Set in a distant star system, the show follows the last surviving humans as they flee from their homeworlds after being attacked by the robotic Cylons. Led by Admiral William Adama (played by the iconic Edward James Olmos) and President Laura Roslin (played by Mary McDonnell, The Fall of the House of Usher), the humans are forced to embark on a desperate journey to find a new home while being pursued relentlessly by the Cylons.
The show made a star of Katee Sackhoff as Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace:
One of the things that sets Battlestar Galactica apart from other sci-fi shows is its focus on character development. The series features a diverse cast of characters, each with their own flaws, strengths, and motivations. The show explores their personal relationships, their struggles, and their ethical dilemmas in a way that is both compelling and relatable.
Another aspect that sets the show apart is its willingness to tackle complex themes and issues. Battlestar Galactica explores topics such as the nature of humanity, the dangers of artificial intelligence, the ethics of war, and the role of religion in society. The show raises thought-provoking questions and challenges viewers to consider their own beliefs and values.
Moore is a prolific writer and outside of the main season found time to prepare webisodes and two TV movie length features.
