I'm not sure this is worth bumping this thread...

I'm not sure this is worth bumping this thread for, but what the heck? I'm due for a series rewatch anyway. Plus, it's funny. :D

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

Wow. Honestly, I'm pretty sick of EVERYTHING being rebooted. "Hey, we could be creative and come up with brand-new stories of our own... or we could just borrow someone else's story that already...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

I thought I'd feel that way upon rewatching all of Lost back-to-back, but I didn't. When I got to the end, it still felt cheesy. And the flash-sideways stuff felt cheesier, since I knew it wasn't...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

Now that I've matured (cough cough), I still find the BSG ending (the whole ending, not just Kara's story arc) far more satisfying than the ending of Lost, which still pisses me off.

I've...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

Okay, more funniness.

Do any of you guys watch CSI? If you do, and you have OnDemand or can find it online, watch this past Thursday's episode (from April 16). It's hilarious for anyone who knows...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

Honestly ... Does it seem to you as if they killed off Kara's character not having a clue what they were going to do about it later? And then this resurrection bit gets tacked on once the uproar of...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

Tigh and Ellen were always halfway toward a major confrontation anyway, so that could have easily been a full-blown war among the Five. I liked the way they ended their story arc, though -- with the...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

I'm not sure I agree with your concept that choosing the concepts they did wouldn't alienate anyone (in theory). You imply that they chose nothing, and yet they did. They chose some sort of higher...

Oooh, see! I knew I wanted to start rewatching it sooner rather than later! :) I think I'll love rewatching it and "getting" so much more than I did the first time through. :D

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

Fair enough. But bear in mind that this thread about the final season is now 14 pages long. We have discussed each episode as it aired. That's really all I'm doing here. Discussing it because it's...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

I like your previous post, Seds. And it works well. I suppose my own issue here is seeing this from too much of a writer's perspective. I have had drilled into my writer's brain for decades that you...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

I thought Baltar had sex with Caprica Six, not Head Six. Am I missing something? My main point still stands: They definitely presented her differently from the head characters, and did it precisely...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

I think perhaps the reason it seems we are harping on this now and not earlier is that, before now, we could have held out some hope to get answers *eventually.* But now that we are done with...

Re: Battlestar Galactica: Final Season (SPOILERS)

By saying that her viper and body "had to be moved to Earth," all you're saying is that the writers made a mistake and had to find a way to correct course and fix it later. If she had to be on Earth...

Nim, you might have a point there, except for a few important issues:

I'm at that stage today where it is tough to hunker down and do work I should be doing instead (laundry, proofreading, etc.). I'd rather be watching the all-day marathon of back episodes! :)
