Space:1999 - Battlestar Galactica (1978) style opening

[@mogznwaz]

The BSG Theme always gives me goosebumps ❤. I also love the Space 1999 season 1 theme. Both absolutely epic.

[@DanielAppleton-lr9eq]

Could they do a NEW SERIES called Space : 2099 & not turn it into total SCHLOCK or worse ?

[@JimAndBess1]

@DanielAppleton-lr9eq that was Space 1999 Season 2. Sorry couldn't resist. I misread it. I thought you said that you wanted it schlock, and was calling season 2 total schlock.

[@DanielAppleton-lr9eq]

@@JimAndBess1 Consider this : They just take a s--tload of the original scripts, creative writing, " Real physics " & place it a century in the future. Hollyweird ran out of fresh ideas long ago.

[@lancebaylis3169]

That original BSG music always makes the hairs on my neck stand up when I hear it. So good.

[@Calvaryscout]

think it was John Williams who did music.... will have to look up now.

[@aguage99]

I am a lifelong and deep admirer of Space: 1999... but I really enjoyed the version you realized. Congratulations!

[@jmcenanly1]

"The Testament of Arkadia" is an especially appropriate episode to use, as it involves extraterrestrial origins for humanity.

[@harvey1965]

.... and was a brilliant episode!

[@GoodVideos4]

Thus, even that narration at the beginning fits.

[@reynardofox6628]

Awesome guest appearance by Freddie Mercury as Luke Ferro!

[@paulrimmer1967]

Absolutely stunning! ; almost brought a tear to my eye appreciation of how well observed & accurate this is. WELL DONE 👏, 👏 ✔

[@scottfortney9657]

Somehow this the best mash up I have seen. Somehow it works! Great job!

[@harvey1965]

The Lords of Kobol! This is strangely perfect!

[@Jolar70]

It's so weird, and completely uncalled for, yet PERFECTLY done! Five stars!

[@EUKARYOTIK]

You've amazed me yet again Chris... I love both of these shows, and I think you've done fantastic work.

[@ListerDavid]

This was wicked and took me back to bbc2 in the 90s when they were both being shown.

[@ScottRandolph-dd7dr]

💫 Very nice concept. Kept my attention. I watched both of these shows in the 70's.... both my favourites.... retro greetings from coastal Mississippi 😂

[@jamesmartin9401]

I love how mashups like this always show there's more than one way to skin the emotional cat.

[@SaturnCanuck]

Beautiful. A lot of work there, well done. A tribute to two great SF shows from the 1970s.

[@mikecane]

Great work! Also loved that the theme continued into the episode introduction.

[@sarahwolf6754]

Okay, I have to admit, that was pretty good.

[@dakchang63]

Got a real chuckle out of this thanks for a nice memory of each of my favorite shows as a kid

[@CaptainCampion]

Okay, that was super-clever. Good work!

[@roberthenley3236]

This is an AWESOME MIX. Great job and the Battlestar style goes perfectly with space 1999 opening. I actually want to watch it now!

[@wildstar1063]

I am a big fan of both Space 1999 and the original Battlestar Galactica. I think this intro and opening titles works very well.

[@dekelanson5280]

I love it! It really works with the Battlestar Galactica theme.

[@smithwriter69]

Great stuff! The Galactica theme works very well with 1999. Who knew?!

[@Tron8532]

That takes me back to when I was in high school👍🏾

[@simonbutterfield4860]

Thanks for the upload because I like these mash ups and this one looks good.

[@ScottyKirk1]

Love love LOVE it! Two of my favorite shows! Thanks!

[@TheWinterShadow]

Wow...dude, you matched it up to perfection.

[@_WillCAD_]

Perfectly matched styles from two radically different shows. Nice work!

[@relathan1]

This is so perfect, it almost brought a tear to my eye.

[@Mrpaulaustin08]

Well done. The pre credit sequence was spot on. Amazing

[@brettmiller7833]

Amazing work, both shows are amongst my favorites of all time and you did them justice, which is rare these days !!!

[@WhisperEve]

This is great!! And love using the ITC entertainment logo. That brought me back. Nice job.

[@jamesavalos4555]

Awesome !! Now i would love you to flip it around with Battlestar with Space 1999 titles !!!

[@sarahwolf6754]

It sort of has already been done. Ron Moore of nuGal said the quick episode clips in the title sequence were inspired by Space: 1999.

[@gernblansten684]

You know, that music is so good that it could probably be played over “Maude” and still look great!

[@rickyj5547]

One of my favourite episodes of space 1999.

[@STNeish]

Nicely done, brought a tear to my eye that the secondary characters all got nameplates.

[@caragroves7196]

my brother watch it when it first came out on T.V and he is a really big fan of the show as in his words it is brill mate

[@Wurlyscope]

Fantastic editing, well done!

[@TMcD3]

This is truly great work. I loved both shows so much.

[@jean-jacquescortes9500]

Very good job. As a fan of both serials, I appreciate this video. Wells done, guys 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@LightOfReason7]

That was really cool, great idea!

[@capsizebrian]

Really good. Would love to see you reverse & do the same with the Galactica opening to Barry Gray music. With things like the Carillon Casino and other disco elements in that show it would also translate.

[@ewokander]

Love, love, love this!!!

[@Calvaryscout]

EXCELLENT. Thanks for the re-imagine and a smile of fond memories of both shows

[@jppdfw]

WOW, very impressive!

[@timfurnier7061]

Haaaaaaaa! Very clever. Your imagery parallels well the Battlestar Galactica opening.

[@allirogorilla]

Just shows how Great music can change the whole aspect of picture

[@LordZontar]

"And though they are thought mad, there are those who believe that robots are stealing their luggage..."

[@ocardaugh]

Incredible. Bravo!

[@KevinScott76]

YES YES YES YES AWESOME! This is perfect - Thank you!

[@sparehead8911]

This is brilliant- absolutely brilliant 👍👍

[@allenjones3130]

Very good video! Clever juxtaposition of the BSG theme with footage from 1999.

[@captainiant]

Hi Chris ( or should I say randomiser general) love the video very clever mixing the two shows 👍👍👍

[@GeekFilter]

That works surprisingly well!

[@braderickson9996]

Not gonna lie, pretty damn good.

[@vplexico]

This is wonderfully done.

[@thomaslueckert]

Absolut genial gemacht. Einfach spitze. 👍

[@ralphangioli4852]

Perfect episode for this video. Really well done!! 👍

[@bryanthardin5514]

Awesome very brilliant having the Battlestar Galactica theme in space 1999 that was true work and no frac whatsoever very good job and not a centon

[@FramesPerSecondAnimation]

Very well done, congratulations.

[@AlphanPeter]

GREAT JOB

[@JimParshall]

Absolutely awesome. Excellent work! // Absolutamente asombroso. ¡excelente trabajo!

[@viperleader001]

Love the Intro and how it was done!!!!

[@roadbox]

Very artfully done. Nice homage to both shows.

[@DoctorFrance]

This was great. Thanks!

[@rustyshackleford1114]

Unreal how well this fits together.

[@Skyraider4171]

Excellent work as usual Chris

[@stephen2583]

The Eagle. Still the most inteillgently designed sci-fi space ship ever.

[@rickyj5547]

must watch my DVDs.

[@marpsr]

Clever!!

[@rscorpio768]

absolutely comical!!!! I laughed my coffee all over the keyboard!!!

[@fal081069]

I really liked "Battlestar Galactica Year One" 😉 (1978), but my favorite sci-fi series of all time is "Space: 1999" (especially Year One, but I'm not a fundamentalist about it!). That being said, I totally agree with what @Paul and Karen Rimmer and @James Mcenanly wrote. Amazing video, loved it!

[@eveltyler7688]

Ah; sorry; quite right - I meant Lucifer/Satan in the demonic sense as Patrick MacNee played him under the name of Iblis. But I'd forgotten Jonathan Harris voiced the Cylon Lucifer - thank you for that! He's absolutely perfect and I only wish there had been more of the most devious android of all time...

[@BrainheartMan]

Pretty cool re-imagining!

[@Wolfman051970]

This was an excellent job

[@GoodVideos4]

Aar, good one. The Battlestar Galactica original series also. It was better than the reimagined one. Even that narration at the beginning fits.

[@jimmygay7837]

Great job, it works perfectly.

[@Livesinashack]

This is brilliant!

[@TedRivers-1999]

Fantastic!!!

[@briandeschene8424]

Bravo! Author! Author! Encore!!!

[@DCAveragejoe]

That works really well!

[@davidsmith5523]

Imagine what you might do with the Champions. Itc series from my youth. A great favourite of mine.

[@TheParot161]

Brilliantly done! I do, though, miss the disco era “wa-ka-chick-ka, wa-ka-chi-ka” vibe of the original Space 1999 theme. Please pardon my spelling of wa-ka-chi-ka. I’m sure it’s not correct.

[@TommygunNG]

No, you got it right.

[@kurtsnyder4752]

Boom chica chica wow wow, by George, I do think he's got it.

[@talcy]

Nice touch adding Robert Rietti. He'd be one of themost credited actors in the UK if he'd been credited for every voice he did.

[@rickjohnston1728]

As a fan of both series, I absolutely love it! Much better than my prequel series opening concept, "Moonbase Alpha Before the Breakaway." But in the same spirit.

[@davidryder3374]

Big fan of both and love the idea of a mashup...but you just can't beat the 2nd season Space:1999 theme!

[@tyronehamilton588]

Nicely done!

[@tomedwards7580]

That was very well done! Felt a little over-dramatic, but a lot of fun!

[@HarrisFilmProductions]

Excellent job!

[@masterbondofox8982]

I'm your 1,000th Like! Okay, that was pretty good. Pretty darned good I'll have to admit.

[@gicking3898]

Very well done!

[@GoodVideos4]

What I thought of now, is add on that it is also starring a few from the second season, especially Maya. And, have the name of a fictitious episode.

[@paulhunter6742]

I am amazed how good video clips are coordinated with Galactica's theme music. I actually works quite well....🙂😃

[@jervishorton7372]

That worked very well

[@JJfromPhilly67]

This came out great, excellent. I wonder what Gerry and Sylvia Anderson would have thought about it.

[@mattyoung8415]

Very well done 👏

[@michelguy5569]

Very good job ! 👍👍👍

[@davidfbenko]

That. Is art.

[@peterthompson4317]

That’s brilliant

[@kpowers]

Wow!!!!!!!!!!! I loved it

[@TheDannyschoofs]

lol, nice :) Quite like both series, so can relate to this

[@Dkentflyer]

Very well done ☺
