bitspersecond56000 Generally whole series going like ''Catch Me If You Cane'', some cyclone reviled some of didn't. After the first seasons end I really waited saw something happened the earth but we just came back the space war. This is the most annoying thing to me for series. I don't bother the all emotional speeches given Adama or characters between but this is really broke my opinion about series. They created hype about Earth even first seasons, show the arrow etc. otherwise it's a good series. I also realized that the people ideas about humanoid robot not so harsh when show was aired. Today people either blamed the producer to didn't crate robot like terminator or horrifying the human looking robots.And for last, things web wrote about the finale, I not agree. Its maybe the safe way to end things like that but idea about the final ''All of this has happened before and will happen again'' imposed during the whole series. Series gave us what offered first nothing more or less.

drum2000 The remake of Battlestar Galactica is a much deeper and more thoughtful show than the original show from the 70s. Edward Olmos is a huge presence, clearly in command in every scene. The cast is diverse and gels well together. There are multiple subplots that ask questions about love, trust, duty, and the nature of humanity.

bodocepep It started ok when the plot was kept in line, but then this show went from sci-fi to religious fantasy. The plot didn't thicken, it became a total diversified mess. I thought Caprica was trillions of miles away and there was no way back to it, until the writers decided that if you steal an alien ship which has far advanced technology you can go back to Caprica just like going to your neighbors house. I hate when writers mess up the plot with gobbledygook like that. Note to show writers, when you pepper the plot with gobbledygook, you introduce many plot holes. Watchers, then, start to think this show is a complete moronic joke. And then we are introduced to religion in this show. I guess the machines are more religious than humans, can you believe this? It is humans who believe in many gods (Polytheism) in the advanced age of science, versus machines that believe in only one God (Monotheism). Let's look at some examples of idiotic events that occurred. Starbuck gets stuck on this one planet. The rescue team can't find her. Starbucks discovers the crashed alien ship not far from her. In the matter of minutes, while having a broken leg and losing oxygen, she figures out how to fly the alien ship and make it back to the fleet just as they were to leave her behind and jump. This kind of nonsense makes me cringe. Why couldn't the plot be much simpler? An alien ship got shutdown. It was discovered by the rescue ship, it got picked up and brought back to Galactica for reverse engineering. It's simple, to the point, and close to how it would have happened in the real world. But no, the writers needed to do something uncanny and magical.Then there is all this highly unnecessary drama in this show. Everyone hates one another, everyone got some psychological issues, no one gets along. When you have a common enemy, you tend to bond together, but that's not happening in this show. The humans are as bad to each other as they are to the machines. In fact, they probably treat the machines, their biggest enemy, with more respect than they treat each other. It's amazing. There are only 50,0000 of them left in the universe, and they are slaughtering each other. Note to writers, please keep psychological twisted drama to a minimum when it comes to space sci-fi type shows. How hard can it be? Half way through season 2 I completely gave up on this show. Too much drama, too much psychological and religious nonsense, too much plot holes. This show started with strategy, survival, but now it turned into a giant religious and psychological mess. It's more religious than Lord of the Rings, accept it's happening far far away in space far far into the future. Amazing.

stab abo Its 2018. We've had two crappy Disney-wars movies despite billions thrown at them. But we have great, gritty TV story arcs that are ruling the airwaves. And Ron Moore & David Eick's BSG started it all.Is the CGI dated - yes. But rewatching it 9 years since it ended (14 since the mini-series) its not as bad as you think? Why? Because it is such great realist television. Human characters with all their foibles on display. Noble characters that make you want to be a better person. Arguably the greatest villain every on TV played brilliantly - Baltar played by James Callis. Intelligent theological discussion. Mystery, suspense, and a real sense of peril. Great series arcs and brilliant story and character development.
