Order of Episodes
Star Trek episodes might fictionally happen in airdate order, production order, or stardate order.
As well as I remember there was no mention of any kind of dates in Battlestar Galactica (1978) according to any Colonial dating system. So that leaves two different obvious fictional orders for the episodes: airdate order and production order.
Does anyone know the production order of Battlestar Galactica (1978) episodes?
The Wikpedia list of Battlestar Galactica (1978) episodes gives the numbers in ordre of airing, the original airdates, and production codes that might give the order of production.
