Publisher's Synopsis
Both parts of the 2003 mini-series pilot that re-imagines the 1970s sci-fi saga. The Cylons, who were created generations before as robot workers for humans, but who then turned on them in rebellion, have been absent for over 40 years since their last brush with humanity. But now they have returned with a vengeance, and are on a mission to wipe out their creators. Using their new technology, they set to work disabling human ships, killing their pilots and laying waste to the Twelve Colonies of Man. The attack forces Commander Adama (Edward James Olmos) to bring his old battlestar, the Galactica, into use again, and the crew begins to collect survivors. But the Cylons fight back with the beautiful and deadly 'Number Six' (Tricia Helfer), a Cylon in the form of a gorgeous blonde with a seemingly insatiable appetite for sex, enabling them to mess with scientist Dr Baltar (James Callis)'s brain and threaten the future of humankind.
