Possible the best show ever madeThe earlier seasons were the best in my opinion, but this show really has no equal. Really changed standards for scifi as a whole, I had high expectations when watching any scifi before but after this show most scifi television seems goofy and juvenile. BSG as a show did for tv what the Matrix or Avatar did for movies, completely raised the bar for revolutionary special effects, drama and overall writing quality. I cannot even describe how sad I was to see this show end. Replaced with shows like Sanctuary and warehouse 13 on syfy, its just a tragedy..Score: 5/5
You will want to watch again and againOne of my all-time favorites. The series is a continually developing and intricate story. You will need to watch from season one in order to fully appreciate the show. furthermore this isnt your regular cheesy sci-fi. Its a drama with a rich story line and equally enjoyable cast of characters. There is no comparison to the origianal show. I am very thankful that they remade the show. I would recomend buying the soundtracks. I hope to see more great work from Bear McCreary..Score: 5/5
One of the Best Shows EverThere was little to no surprise when this show was listed as one of the Best of the Decade. I think many fans would agree that it can also be regarded as one of the Best of All-Time. Everything from the cast to the writing to the visual effects are top-notch. Glad to have seen these guys on Inside Media at the Paley Center. Wish there could be more seasons to watch..Score: 5/5
Great!Small SPOILER: For those confused about the "All Along the Watchtower" reference, IMHO it is to do with the four riders of the Apocalypse. Only "Two riders were approaching, and the wind began to howl. . ." I think that unless one has a rounded view of philosophy and religion certain references such as this may not be understood. In truth, it is worhwhile to view the entire series again and write down references that are not understood or only partially understood. Books have been written about this series in an attempt to analyze it. I think it might take a person even with a well educated background in history, religion, and politics years to try and fully understand BSG. In fact, since it is fiction, we may never fully understand it but it will always, IMHO, be thought provoking. Even some of the most intelligent people I know are mystified by many aspects of BSG, and this is a great quality of the series. There are many layers and most of us can relate to one or more of them. It is like an extreme puzzle. I think erveryone should be able to enjoy this..Score: 5/5

Great Show - Outstanding!!!Somehow I missed this show when it debued in the 90s. As I am retired now, and most TV isn’t worth recording, let alone watching, I am very happy to have intelligent TV to watch. (It is a bit pricy for the entire season, but a very good show). This show is intelligently written and exceptionally acted. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a compelling story..Score: 5/5
BSG Jumped the Shark...HARD!Worst series finale EVER!! Ron Moore is an egotistical hack! This negates anything good that ever existed in the show!

Maybe you can get a video credit to compensate for the split-up of Daybreak, Part 2 :)Hi, just a tip from me: I complained about only getting half of the real part two and, miraciously, iTune customer support gave me a video credit which let me get the second half of part two, "part 3", for free. Maybe it will work for you as well, try it :). As for the show, I was very moved when I saw the ending last week. Its great, conlusive, mind-blowing and gives good closure. I loved the twist at the very end of this episode, this was just effing great :). I'm sure I will rewatch the entire show soon :). Thank you Ronald D. Moore and all of the crew and cast and people who were of help to them for telling us this great story. I loved to listen to it :):). Farewell:)..Score: 5/5

Turned me into the fat comic book guy from the SimpsonsOk Before this show came out - I had a normal, healthy love of Science fiction... and actually when I first saw the miniseries I found it a little dull. I mean gosh ...they use real guns not lasers...yawn.... Well 7 years later I now have 11 BSG themed t-shirts, I have gained 50lbs and have rewatched the thing 5 times plus twice with the directors voiceovers. I hang out on the Facebook fan page awnsering questions about "canon" and scolding people who don't like the show. Basicly BSG has turned me into the fat comic book guy from the Simpsons. Thanks BSG.

A Great ShowBattlestar Galactica is one of the best science fiction shows I have ever seen. It has it's share of inconsistencies like all sci-fi, but it has the strongest storytelling and acting of any any show, in any genre, in recent memory. It's a modern classic that'll continue to appeal to a diverse audience for a long time..Score: 5/5
It Falls ApartLike anything stretched too far, Battlestar doesn't hold together. After a strong first series, the many story threads worked only to hurt the main plot. Much of the show's appeal was built on what it didn't show the audience; dark, interesting things only hinted at. The more they showed, the less we liked..Score: 2/5
A Great Show. Gutted in its Final SeasonLike many shows with an overarching story arc, Battlestar Galactica tied itself up in plot knots over time. In this case, the writers decided to cut through the knots rather than unravel them. By the time it’s over, major characters are suddenly and inexplicably revealed to be cylons, angels, and ghosts, and what appeared to be great and heroic victories in earlier episodes turned out to be nothing more than the unfolding of a divine plan. The result was, for many, many of the show’s admirers something not merely unsatisfying but more akin to betrayal: Ron Moore promised “naturalistic” science fiction, but ended up delivering us a (literally) Deus Ex Machina conclusion preachier than Sunday morning television. Most incredibly of all, Moore built this season (and one episode of the last) around a song by Bob Dylan. I can hardly believe those words as I write them, but it actually happened. The best episodes of Season Four concerned a mutiny in the fleet led by a junior officer sick of it all. Would that a junior writer had staged a similar but successful mutiny at the writer's meetings..Score: 3/5

Amazing show, unmissableTo those people who think sci-fi is squabbling robots and dodgy special effects, prepare to have those ideas quashed. This is one of the best dramas ever, irrespective of it being set in space. Buy it you won't regret it... unless hat is, if you spend over £70 on iTunes. Once again iTunes falls short of the mark on price and content. You can get the entire set on blu-ray for £35 which has the excellent Razor, not available in the UK, and extended episodes in seasons 3 & 4. I'm getting fed up complaining about the price on iTunes, but both they and the studios should be looking at prices on all formats and making it fair and competitive for us loyal customers. COME ON, PLAY FAIR, GIVE US THE EQUIVALENT CONTENT FOR THE SAME PRICE AS THE BLU-RAY!!!.Score: 5/5
Absolute proof that SyFy was right: the series should have been cancelledSeason 4 is painful evidence that the SyFy Channel was right when it originally decided to cancel BSG after its second season. The show has degenerated into a soap opera, and in this case hi-tech special effects are used to cover up a complete lack of substance, content or continuity. I have no doubt BSG has a loyal fan base, but "high class drama" it isn't. Perhaps the TV networks should improve their pension plan and then we wouldn't have to be subjected to drivel like this, just so the actors can make money..Score: 1/5
