ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Tom and Brian board the original 1978 Battlestar Galactica for “Saga of a Star World,” where sweeping space battles give way to disco, bug men, and a surprisingly grim survival story. They debate the marathon premiere’s uneven pacing, compare it with the reboot, and inspect everything from Cylon eyes to the unexpected performer inside Muffit.
Next week: Battlestar Galactica: Ultimate (110 - “The Living Legend”)

Tom and Brian find *Get Smart*’s lowest-rated episode badly weakened by Don Adams’ absence, with cheap sets, too much exposition, and an anticlimactic ending. Amos is especially disappointed that an episode with such a promising premise falls so flat.
