BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: The Chief's Final Scene
The Chief's Final Scene is a subject that usually comes up on the anniversary of the airing of the BSG miniseries, pilot episode or finale.
You either know it's the scene of the Chief with Tigh and Ellen where he tells them he’s going to go live in Scotland. Or you think it's the Chief slumped down on the floor of the Galactica after strangling Tory. If you believe it's the latter it's not your fault, it's just what streaming service you used to watch BSG.
If you watched BSG when it originally aired on the Sci-Fi channel or on DVD, Blu-Ray, iTunes, Google Play, Amazon Prime (USA & UK), Stan (Australia) or Tubi (USA) then you know that this is the Chief's final scene ....
If you've only ever watched BSG using one of the following streaming platforms, the above scene is missing ....
- Amazon Prime (Australia, Canada & Sweden)
- BBC iPlayer (UK)
- Binge (Australia)
- Comet (USA)
- Netflix
- Peacock (USA)
- SyFy website/app (USA)
... and this is what you would have believed was the Chief's final scene .....
