First episode of Battlestar Galactica after the mini series.
That was groundbreaking for a sci fi television show. People were, tired, angry, scared and drunk. So much different than anything than anything that had come before it.
Also, seeing real physics and sounds in a space battle was rad.
I am such a sucker for stressed out people in some kind of command center who are seeing overly simplified representations of what’s happening. Seeing scanning screening with little simple dots representing some massive space battle and the unease of not actually seeing it. It creates such a claustrophobic atmosphere.

BSG was such a good show and they covered some pretty controversial topics (The occupation episodes especially).
I was however very disappointed with how it ended.
