While suffering from a fuel shortage, The Galactica finds the supposedly lost Battlestar Pegasus, led by the legendary Commander Cain.
"The Living Legend" is a two-part episode of the American science fiction television series Battlestar Galactica. Written by series creator Glen A. Larson and directed by Vince Edwards, the episodes were originally broadcast on ABC on November 26 and December 3, 1978.
"The Living Legend" introduced the character of Commander Cain (Lloyd Bridges) and the Battlestar Pegasus, both of which were revived in the reboot series episode "Pegasus" in 2005. It also introduced the recurring characters of Lieutenant Sheba (Anne Lockhart) and Bojay (Jack Stauffer), and included the final appearance of the recurring character of the Cylon Imperious Leader.
The episodes were later edited and released theatrically in 1979 under the title Mission Galactica: The Cylon Attack, which also included material from the episode "Fire in Space".
Plot
The Battlestar Galactica encounters the Pegasus, a battlestar previously assumed to have been destroyed, which is under the command of Commander Cain. The two battlestars fight the Cylons.
Production and broadcast
"The Living Legend" was directed by Vince Edwards and written by series creator Glen A. Larson, from a story by Larson and Ken Pettus.
The episodes introduced the character of Commander Cain (Lloyd Bridges) and the Battlestar Pegasus, both of which were revived in remake series episode "Pegasus" in 2005. They also introduced the recurring characters of Lieutenant Sheba (Anne Lockhart) and Bojay (Jack Stauffer), and included the final appearance of the recurring character of the Cylon Imperious Leader.[citation needed] Nigel Andrews said the narrative concerning Galactica's shortage of fuel, and the Cylons' possession of an abundance of it, was influenced by the 1970s energy crisis that was happening at the time.
Part one aired on ABC on November 26, 1978, and part two aired on December 3, 1978.
