THIS IS A SPOILER FILLED POST!!!!!! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!
So I finally watched the series finale to the greatest Sci-Fi series since the Next Generation. I speak of course of Battlestar Galactica. I loved this show and was very nervous that they would ruin it all with a weak-ass ending. I hate being right. The first hour was great fun but the endless tripe of the second hour was horrible.
So they find Earth that isnt Earth but we know it IS Earth? Garbage. I was so relieved when they found the nuked Earth, I mean BEYOND relieved. I felt if they actually ever found Earth it would cheapen the whole series, you can plainly see how it did.
Not to mention how 150,000 years later we are all decendants of early humans and BSG personnell kind of invalidates OUR achievements as a species.
Besides do you expect me to believe that no one would find the the idea of living in a cave abhorrent when they are used to the society they where in? I for one would have been beside myself. Who on Earth (pun intended) would want to go back that far? I find that idea to be the most ridiculous floated in this entire series.
Starbuck....man oh man. I had a feeling I wouldnt like the explanation for what the back-from-the-dead Starbuck was. So what do they decide to do? Nothing. Couldn't think of anything pluasible hunh Mr Moore? So she just dissapears? She was never there? Who the hell was that then? lame, lame, LAME!!!! LAME!!! Gods damnit that was WEAK! I sat through that boring ass episode of her trying to figure out musical notes so she had the jump coordinates for the Earth that isnt Earth that IS Earth? If she was never there who the hell was doing all that?
One thing I did like is that they never explained what the figment of thier imaginations Six and Baltar were. But then they turn around and show the two imaginary people talking to one another 150,000 years later? Im sorry but they arent angels, even if they were how can a machine be an angel. Once again LAME.
A small quible this one but....where are all the vipers and raptors? Yes the fleet was remotely piloted into the sun, but everyone had to get to Earth that isnt Earth that IS Earth by shuttle, raptor or Viper soooooo where are they?
Hera? How did she save humanity? What was the signifigance of the opera house? God's plan was to only have her survive? She was like the entire point of the show for the longest time and she means nothing?? What is that garbage?
Battlestar Galactica was one of the crowning achievements of televised Sci-Fi and they completely RUINED it with that finale. That cheap, lame, we have no idea what the hell to write here, dissapointing, unfulfilling, directionless, complete waste of time end. Way to go guys..
