Battlestar Galactica question

[Mo0o]

I just started watching episode 101 and it seems like i missed a great deal already. Was there some kind of minimovie that came out? And waht was teh story involved in that to get the people to where they are now.

There was a two-part mini-series that preceded the first episode of the series, if that's what you're talking about.

EDIT: This from IMDB.

Plot synopsis from IMDB. I'm lazy.

EDIT: BTW, it's out on Netflix now, I believe, so you can rent it to "catch up".

Just finished watching the miniseries from Netflix. It does explain a lot.

Watching the miniseries first is a must. Then you have to watch all the shows in order. Otherwise, you're just going to get really confused.
