Your opinion has been (also previously) noted. Why bother commenting in a thread of a program you dislike? |

It's been three days ... was the last episode of BSG so bad that it doesn't even merit comment? We're how many seasons into it, with just a few episodes to go, and they're finally doing some character development/background? Had someone only been able to see Adama's speech at the end, would they have missed anything vital to the story? |

It's a two parter, so I'm waiting until I got the whole story before I talk about it. |

The BSG series finale actually rated a story in the WSJ today, mainly concerned with what's next for Olmos. We have a Caprica prequel movie coming EoY, which they sort of spent half of last week's episode setting up I think, but I guess that's OK if it served that purpose. And there is another movie mentioned The Plan that I don't know much about.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123750376676889711.html As far as Sci Fi getting renamed "SyFy", I wonder what that's about. They are already weak on actual Science Fiction on the network, maybe they are acknowledging that the way The Learning Channel changed its name to just TLC. Edited by Hoss, Mar 20 2009, 11:33 AM.

Well, I had just seen the series finale and I daresay it had a very strong conclusion much like DS9 did for Star Trek. The conflict between cylons and humans had been resolved and the remaining survivors of the colonial fleet had found a new home. This is RDM at his best. I had the impression this is his theory of how Atlantis came to be known as the lost continent and why scientists had come to believe a number of advanced technologies came from this legendary lost world. He thinks the colonial fleet founded Atlantis more than 140000 years ago and the advanced science and technologies found in the ruins came from the colonial fleet settlements. I wonder if the new spin off series - Caprica - a scifi series base on the events leading to the cylon wars had been given a green light yet? The series debut in DVD is schedule for an April release. Long live BSG! Oops. Wrong series.

I found the ending to be kind of long. I kept waiting for them to get everything wrapped up. Kara Thrace just disappears. Bye. Baltar and Caprica Six have angel clones. OK Cavel just shoots himself in the head? After all that. 150,000 years ago. It would have been more believable if it were about 15,000 years ago. It took another 140,000 years for civilizations to occur? |

So, after 4 years of fighting side by side to save what remained of the human population, Adama and his son voluntarily decide to never see one another again just when they found a new home? If that's the case, why does Adama - a person by himself and not a whole community - get to keep a Raptor? BSG once was edgy because edgy made a better story. This finale was "edgy" because it's BSG and BSG is supposed to be "edgy" whether or not it made any sense. My response was that it wasn't as bad as the finale to Seinfeld ... but not by much. |

The ending was very reminiscent of "Lord of the Rings". The gift of resurrection was all that Cavel and his followers wanted? Why were they pursuing the fleet when they had resurrection? Yeah, that was stramge. Apparently those who magically reappear have the ability to disappear as well. All this time those were angels and not just figments of their imagination. Huh. Cavel's actions seemed like the opposite of what a cylon looking for resurrection would do. They have all that technology and raw materials at their disposal and they just fly it into the sun and simultaneously giving up on Anders? That's hard so swallow. When Hera was by herself at the very end right before "150,000 years later", were thoughts of her falling victim to a lion, or other predator, crossing anyone else's mind? |
