This is a 21-disc box set, and inside you’ll find all four seasons of the show, the special episode Razor, and the finale film The Plan. Each season and special also comes with a ton of extras, like documentaries, behind-the-scenes featurettes, webisodes, deleted scenes, and much more.

This reimagining of Battlestar Galactica kept the basic plot of the original series and detailed how the remnants of humanity were in a desperate fight for survival against the synthetic Cylon race. After the Cylons succeeded in wiping out billions of humans who had colonized a cluster of planets, the survivors flee to the Battlestar Galactica and begin a long trek in search of a fabled thirteenth colony known as Earth.
Despite its low-budget beginnings, Battlestar Galactica quickly earned rave reviews for its high-quality production, ensemble cast, and its examination of what it means to be human amidst several other high-level concepts.
Amazon is also offering a steep discount on the Battlestar Galactica: The Remastered Collection, which contains the 1978 Original Series and its sequel series Galactica 1980. This cool collection includes three hours of deleted scenes, a 45-minute documentary on Battlestar’s legacy, and featurettes with commentary from series creator Glen Larson and composer Stu Phillips. Normally $70, you can get Battlestar Galactica: The Remastered Collection for only $30 (was $70). That’s a great price for 27-plus hours of classic sci-fi fun.
If you want to see where it all started in 4K resolution, the original Battlestar Galactica movie is on sale for $13 (was $30) at Amazon. This 4K Blu-ray released last year, and it’s a rather interesting release. The movie is a modified version of the Original Series pilot episode, Saga of a Star World. Battlestar Galactica debuted theatrically in Canada before the pilot even aired in the United States. For long-time Battlestar fans, this is a cool way to watch a re-edited version of the pilot in 4K resolution for the first time.
If you’re looking for more sci-fi, you can also check out this deal on Babylon 5. It’s a groundbreaking series in its own right, and the Blu-ray box set has been discounted to almost half its list price at Amazon, dropping the cost to $70.
Amazon also has a bunch of awesome discounts on Star Trek box sets, including The Complete Original Series on Blu-ray with three steelbook cases for $39.49 (was $70).
