2015: GLEN A. LARSON BIRTHDAY FILM (BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, GALACTICA 1980 and KNIGHT RIDER)


Legendary Uber-Producer Glen A. Larson would have been celebrating his 78th birthday a few days ago.  Unfortunately he died last November.  I posted my own tribute (77 FACTOIDS) at the time (see it here).

NBC CLASSICS have put together their own birthday tribute: a clever compilation of clips from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, GALACTICA 1980 and KNIGHT RIDER.  

I have to say, I cringed at the choppy sound editing on this (writing as someone who does this kind of thing for a living) but, to cut the editor some slack, they would have been working from fully-mixed Masters and struggling with the episode's original music-and-all sound mix.

That said, it's still a nice tribute and even nicer that anyone actually cared about TV heritage enough to notice Larson's birthday.
