Mine, too. She comes out of jump, guns fixed on the baseships, firing for all she was worth, then stepped into the center, drawing the fatal fire away from Galactica. She managed to take out three of them before she died, though. I'd say the Pegasus redeemed herself from her past with that.

3:45 is my favorite moment in the entire series. even Adama has despaired. Galactica looks all alone, surrounded by enemies and then...Pegasus clears her throat.

Yes! It's one of my favorite also. What a really fun series this was. I've watched it in full I'd guess about 3 times. Also the side shows that really were never given a chance. If not for the strike they'd be going into filming the new series any time now. But that will again like so many things go on hold or never happen. Bummer. I also heard the strike is also setting back the new Stargate as well. Double bummer.

@@CdrChaosbecause in one of the dumbest decisions lee ever made, he left all his vipers and a majority of the Pegasus crew behind to guard the fleet which handicapped Pegasus to an insane degree, without all of those it was severely hampered and couldn’t effectively fight all of the basestars after galactica jumped away. Lee in this situation was a total dumbass

How could call this the most iconic battles without the Adama Maneuver!!?? Him falling in New Caprica's atmosphere and jumping out creating that awesome sonic boom!! Then the vipers blasting the frack out of the Cylon ground forces!!

Includes training and accidents, doesn't include the Adama Maneuver. I'm disappointed.

Those Raptors are probably the coolest looking ships out there.

No Adama Maneuver? Jail.

In the annals of finales for a season, I think BSG S3's finale has got to be the best, even if the season itself could be hit or miss in comparison to S2. I still get chills and goosebumps, so well executed.

😀the music 😀

It good storytelling when the first time I saw this episode I literally thought the Galactica was going to be destroyed in a show called “Battlestar Galactica”.

Now I'm not military but I don't really see how the piolets of Galacticas raptors have so much trouble with the firing of the drones It's not like they are doing some advanced maneuver they are flying in a straight line and firing missiles type things

Good video but this was one iconic battle, a skirmish, and a couple of crashes.

Sacrificing Pegasus instead of Galactica was their stupidest mistake. They should have kept the Pegasus instead as it had better armor, better weapons, a ship factory, and many other things they needed.

Well, show isn't called "Battlestar Pegasus" to keep it as main ship. But Lee Adama was the worst choice for commander. Spacedock had a breakdown of the battle to confirm - Lee Adama is severely incompetent, when he is not in special task force or in Viper's cockpit. It would quite a joke, if his brother was awesome at commanding ships in simulations.

It makes sense if you consider the crew involved. Lee was basically trading the more advanced battlestar with a skeleton crew for the older battlestar with a nearly full complement of veteran crew. When they evacuate Pegasus they only need like four? Raptors to fit everyone aboard the ship. Even if you disregard the trade of the Pegasus for the lives of everyone aboard Galactica, it still stands to reason that a fully crewed Galactica would likely be more effective than Pegasus running with a crew of 99% conscripts pulled from the civilian fleet.

To this day I don’t understand why Lee ordered the Pegasus into the middle of those three basestars while rescuing the Galactica. We’ve seen the Galactica and Pegasus take on 3+ basestars at once before without issue. Seems like an unnecessary sacrifice of a battlestar to me. Edit, in response to some of these comments: Cylons wouldn’t have been able to ignore the Pegasus anyway, considering how much long-range artillery it was firing at the basestars. Ignoring it would’ve meant losing the battle. The basestars also would’ve been busy with the two battlestars either way, so the evacuation would have proceeded the same. More importantly, the Pegasus was a better ship to protect the colonial fleet with than the Galactica for several reasons: 1) It was capable of building new strike-craft from mined ore on its own, which Galactica couldn’t. 2) it had significantly more firepower than the Galactica. 3) it had on-board VR simulation equipment, meaning it could easily train new pilots without risking Vipers in the process, unlike Galactica. And both ships had enough small FTL-capable craft onboard to completely evacuate either crew, so the crew experience argument doesn’t make sense (plus, crews were integrated at that point, so experience would’ve been roughly equal). And lastly, ramming never makes sense. The Cylons were redeploying after the Pegasus attacked, which would’ve given both battlestars time to move into defensive positions using flak to create a defensive e perimeter against missiles and strike-craft, while occasionally reorienting to use long-range artillery to fire directly at the basestars (ideally the Galactica would provide this defensive flak perimeter while the Pegasus fires its artillery batteries from behind the Galactica). It’s also worth noting that Galactica (and possibly Pegasus) still had nuclear weapons at this point. With how the basestars were deployed in a dense cluster, that would have been the best time to use those nukes. The Galactica was about to be lost anyway, so why not detonate them to take out the Cylon fleet.

What many individuals dont seem to realize is that at this point, humans / man power and most importantly; experience is a scarce and dwindling resource. Lets pretend that the New Caprica evacuation remains the same, except it was Galactica and everyone on board her was the one destroyed. Sure, humanity may have saved its better Battlestar, but it would have lost its most experienced commander and a *lot* of its higher ranking military personnel. This is not a good trade at all. What is a modern Battlestar if the crew and command are green and incompetent? Another Cain? Did we forget what happened to the Galactica / the fleet when Tigh took command when Adama was out? Up to this point, we've seen time and time again that good leadership with a competent crew can make an outdated museum piece work. It is better to save the old ship with a lot of your leadership and veteran crew than it is to save the more modern ship

Where do they get their food and fuel from?

Cette nouvelle série n'a vraiment pas le charme de l'original. Les personnages ressemblent trop à des terriens et les casques façon "pharaon" de Glen Larson étaient plus réussis ! Et puis la musique symphonique d'autrefois nous transportait vraiment dans un autre monde.

So is it supposed to be the iconic battles of season 3 you're not going to show Pegasus and the stupidest move ever made in season 3 by sacrificing Pegasus instead of Galactica and you could at least show her heroic moment she took out a ton of Base Stars
