BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (SCI FI, FRIDAYS, 10 P.M. E.T.) Intelligent life in space? The most anyone could have expected from a remake of the campy '70s series was better haircuts. Instead, Galactica has been reborn as a dark, thrilling story of a deep-space war between humans and the Cylons, a race of robots created by mankind that can disguise themselves in human form. In an intriguing twist on the old series, the new Cylons have a religion and justify their genocide as punishment for humans' corruption. The humans must weigh fear vs. liberty and military vs. civilian authority. As a spacebound parable of the war on terrorism, this series hits eerily close to Earth.
