I will rent the series and start from the beginning.

Just be aware: it all starts with a miniseries. Rent that first, then get the episodes of the first season.

BSG had the most amazing start (with the miniseries) and first season of a show, ever. (In my opinion.) The show made some major miscues down the road (as well as having some great episodes), but I stuck with it just to see how the events of that tremendous start would all end up.

I did a quick check on NetFlix and didn’t see the miniseries. There were the seasons and a few movies though. Where do the movies fall within the timeframe of the series?

I couldn't agree more...

You can get a combination Mini-Series/First season DVD set, as well as buying them separately, so be careful. This is what really pissed me off with the later seasons, like 2.0 and 2.5 nonsense, where they should have just released the entire season in one shot, but decided to screw us over and charge more.

But the Mini-Series drew me in, and that first season nailed me to the floor, especially episodes "33" and "Water." WOW!!!!!
