Tonight's space battles overshadowed any space battles I've seen in the past decade, whether it was Star Wars or Firefly, lthough Firefly was good, and the same special effects company that did Firefly did Battlestar Galactica.

As much as I hated Ellen's character, my wife and I both felt bad during that scene, and at the ending with Tigh and Starbuck. TV shows don't normally do that to me.

We watched it a second time (a first for us) tonight, and my wife caught Gaeta's Sword of Damocles reference, which I had totally missed (of course, my wife has a degree that concerns classical literature so she picks up on stuff like that).

They never actually said what happened to Pegasus in the original show, but yeah I'm one of the folks that always thought it had been destroyed.

Richard Hatch, when he had been proposing his BG series, said that he'd consider it showing up again (although how they would cross paths again after 20 or 30 years, who could say?).
