Review of BSG: The Road Less Traveled

A short review of BSG: The Road Less Traveled where the author gives CKR the praise he deserves.

From A Briefing With Michael



Battlestar Galactica. Season 4, Episode 5. "The Road Less Travelled" One of the most intense and satisfying episodes thus far. Aaron Douglas does some amazing work as (the now bald) Tyrol gets proactive with his grief over Cally. His showdown with Baltar is particularly gripping (James Callis continuing to give stunning performances).

Over on the Demetrius, tempers flair as the crew grow tired of Starbuck's strange quest to find earth. Katee Sackhoff and Tahmoh Penikett are typically superb, but guest star Callum Keith Rennie blows everyone away. The scenes between him and anyone pull you into the screen like nothing else on TV. And so much that happens between the crew members (they attempt a mutiny at episode's ending) is underscored by the knowledge that Anders is a Cylon. Even better (even more ironic): so is Athena. Not that that bothers anyone anymore. Awesome writing.
