Are you sure Colonel Tigh (Terry Carter) does not appear in this series? I strongly remember seeing him in at least the first couple of episodes. 23skidoo 14:15, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Can someone support the claim that the Return of Starbuck episode used "unscreened footage" from the original series? That doesn't jive with anything I've heard about Galactica 1980, that Benedict returned to the role in a last ditch effort to save the series. Can someone provide a link to support this? 24.71.223.140 03:11, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
I once saw a Galactica '80 marathon on the Sci-Fi Channel, but the title said "Battlestar Galactica" rather than "Galactica 1980". Why is this so? Sgt. Bond 20:43, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
Answer: A syndication package, put together in 1982, lumped the original series and "Galactica 1980" together and called them all collectively "Battlestar Galactica". These syndication prints, and copies of them made since, still show the title "Battlestar Galactica" at the start of the "Galactica 1980" episodes. Mokwella 04:25, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
Episode 6 lists "(guest-starring Patrick Stewart"); I can't find evidence of this in IMDB's listing for Patrick Stewart, or in the Battlestar Galactica wiki entry for the episiode, so I've removed it. UniqueCrash5 20:28, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
Re: "[Baltar]...is now Commandant Baltar of the Cylon fleet pursuing the Galactican" Really? It's been a long time since I watched Galactica 1980, but I don't remember Baltar making any appearance in the series or even being metioned. Can somebody verify this "Commandant Baltar" stuff, otherwise I'm going to remove it. Chilly Penguin ( talk) 10:49, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
Baltar is seen in stock footage in at least one episode, sitting on his command perch in his Cylon baseship. He is seen but not heard. —Preceding

I noticed that a "citation needed" flag has been put up next to where it says the term G80 came from the UK. If you contact anyone on the "Classic" or "Galactica 1980" pages at battlestargalacticaforum.com, they'll be able to confirm this is true. Heck, they'll probably give you the name of the guy who first abbreviated it! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.40.125.161 ( talk) 20:25, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
I would like to add information about production that was removed from List of television shows considered the worst in this diff from 9 Feb 2018, but I am not sure how to fit it into the article. – LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄) 23:50, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
I do not think this should be in Category:Television series set in 1980. Such categories are usually only for series made later, but set in the past or for series made earlier, but set in a then future year. Dunarc ( talk) 23:00, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
