Battlestar Galactica

No spoilers here (don't worry, those of you who are still watching).

I just would like to say that the end of Battlestar Galactica made me very angry. I spent the last hour or so wanting to punch people for the things I was seeing on the show. Ronald D. Moore and the other writers fail.

science fiction (sort of), television

I started getting bored with it by the third season (or was it the second?). Whichever it was, I didn't watch through the end of that season, much less the end of the show. A friend of mine, who shares my general opinion about many things, hated the ending, too. So I haven't bothered to watch past the episode where Starbuck is fighting whats-her-face over the arrow.

Yeah.

I stopped watching right in the middle of that fight. I was all "Okay, I am very much enjoying watching the two hot chicks, but I am no longer interested in this show on any other level. Done!"

I thought it got less interesting in the middle, too, but I really wanted to finish. I'd like to say it was worth finishing, but the finale was just so bad. I really enjoyed season 4.5, but the last hour or so of the finale stomped all over that enjoyment for me.

So I guess you made the right call by stopping.

For real. As far as I'm concerned, the fight episode ended in a hot girl on girl make-out session, everybody threw a big party, and the Cylons figured out how to clone Apollo and send several versions of him to our universe.

Rawr.

That is a much better conclusion than what the writers came up with. My only revision would be to make sure to include Helo in the clone-and-send-copies-to-us effort.
