Adama, Starbuck, Boomer, Gaeta, and Dualla would all get called woke casting by the usual suspects if it was made now.


BSG '78 vs BSG '04

Swapped a white male Viper pilot for a white female Viper pilot. (Starbuck) Which worked out juuuust fine.

But also...

They swapped a black male for an *Asian female. (Boomer)
They swapped a black male for a white male (Col. Tigh)
They swapped a half Hawaiian actress who was a pilot/ communications specialist and Col. Adama's daughter for an *Asian female. (Athena) - who wasn't Adama's daughter.
They dropped a white female Medtech character outright. (Cassiopeia)
They dropped a white female Viper pilot. (Lt. Sheba)

But sure, OK. Buy into the idea that everything current day is soooo progressive and ground breaking!


See? No one cares! (Nedry meme)


* Boomer and Athena were both played by the same Asian female.

The Battlestars are way more resilient than the Cylon Base Ships. The Cylons would not have been able to withstand even a surprise attack at the Pikon shipyards. Several Battlestars would have survived. It would have been a more conventional war similar to the first one.

There’s a reason the Cylons’ plan involved getting the security codes. It was the only way they could win. A prolonged war was not in their favor. Remember, they’re machines. They calculated multiple scenarios and determined wiping humanity out in one swift blow was the only way to win. Unfortunately for them, they underestimated the surviving humans and ended up ruining their own society.
