I love this show. Like, if I could, I'd take it to Rome and yell it out and scare all the birds in that square. For reals.

I have dragged people into my apartment and planted them in a chair and forced them to watch this, kicking and screaming. And everyone of them has loved it, geeks and mundanes alike.

Which is good, because otherwise they probably would have arrested me for assault and kidnapping.

Even if you don't own a television, you should find a way to watch this show.

Agreed


I only recently started watching BSG and I am disappointed in myself for catching the show so late now that the next season will be the final one. I still haven't watched season 3 though and there's no release date yet for the DVD.

wasn't that an old Incan sport (minus the ball being metal, of course)?

Love the show. Can't wait for the final season. I hope Baltar gets killed in a very bad way. It's going to take a lot to come close to the excitement of the premiere last season though. Galactica doing that orbital drop and then jumping out was fucking beyond badass!!

season 1 and 2 were soooooooo good, but ever since 2.5 (with a few exceptions early in season 3) it's been disappointing me. i'm kind of glad there's only one season left, maybe they'll cut out the filler episodes in 4. i am excited to see what happens, though.

It really is the best show on TV, but its host isn't treating it so well. Besides choosing to end at 4 seasons, Sci-Fi may be splitting up the 4th season into two parts: 10 episodes playing in spring 2008, and 10 in spring 2009. This is per Jamie Bamber, Aaron Douglas and Richard Hatch at DragonCon.

I took a bundle of notes from their panels but will just mention a snippet Aaron about the Five:

I miss Firefly.

Not better than The Wire. The Wire is the best show in the history of television.

yeah last episodes... Sci-fi also has that (what appears to be a mini-series, but i am unsure) Battlestar Galactica Razor, about a young Admiral Adama during the first cylon war... that should be out in late Novemeber and hold us over till the new year. they are suppose to be showing snippets during Flash Gordon on Fridays, but i haven't watched that show yet, has anyone seen it (flash gordon) is it any good?

My roommate would always used to mock me for watching BSG back when it was on Friday night, and i would stay in to watch (what was to me) the most killer line-up Sci-Fi ever had with star gate SG-1 followed by Atlantis followed by Battlestar Galactica. Yes I lost friends, lost touch with family, and became a hermit, but i knew time would vindicate me... it has. my roommate downloaded the first 2 seasons and watched them all in like 2 days, and then he would be jumping around telling when the show was coming on when it moved to sundays... it is so kick ass it hurts. and unlike other sci-fi themed shows, which are good, Battlestar has that gritty realism to it. maybe it is the hand held cameras, or the realism of the special effects, or it could be how the technology while advanced doesn't seem completely beyond what we could accomplish in the next couple of centuries... or maybe it is just the Edward James Olmos effect. i dunno, it just seems better than any of the star treks, yes even Deep Space 9 (which was amazing) or Babylon 5 (even though Season 4 was probably the best season of any sci-fi show i have ever seen! seriously, it was intense.) battles star stands above them all.

the wire is good, but it is no galactica. if HBO would have picked up Galactica that would have been amazing! the thing i don't like about the Wire was last season, i know it was kind of a rebuilding season, getting the crew back together to take down Marlo and his crew, but it just moved to slow and kept waitng and waiting and waiting for something to happen and then the season ended, not in a good i wonder what is going to happen next kind of way either, in the Goddamit, what the fuck is this shit kind of way. and Rome was better, and deadwook... the wire is better than the sopranos and oz. but no way is it better than Galactica.

Agreed. Firefly was the best sci-fi show ever made. BSG draws in pretty fucking close though.
Long live Whedon.

my favorite episode was the one where Malcom dueled that guy on the planet for Inara, and was wounded to shit but still won... that was pretty kick ass, or the one where Malcom and wash were captured and tortured... i thought with the success of the movie they might reignite the series, but i guess not. Everyone i know who has seen the movie has liked it. oh well, oh well...

IF they do find earth please o please god dont let it be like the original series and have a damn bunch of kids in scout uniforms with wanna be starbuck and apollo actors.so far the series has bin very original with some tip of the hats to the original series.
SO SAY U...well,lets just keep our fingers crossed.
