there be many good thing about the new bsg represent there the multiple cylon role for model 8 and 6 and for example and which the two actress play superbly . there the old school feel of industrial design aboard galactica ( my ship will not be network and over my dead body . ) also and all the space battle and the special effect ( even though the seasoned sci fi watcher will acknowledge the cartoonishness of it all ) the darkness of the character and their essentially flaw nature . that make it all the more bitter that the end be so childish . yes and the first part and the scene in space and the raid on the cylons and all that be very good . but the mushy end . i always watch film and show these day with the timer hidden and so i never know how much time be leave until the end . so for me it be a special kind of torture and to see the end happen over and over again . every time i thought and oh this be the final scene and the final shot and i get one more . every frakking character get it complete end . that wasn not really necessary . what really highlight the schoolboy amateurishness of it all represent the young roslin scene . why be important for u to know that represent { a } she lose her sister and father in a horrible accident and { b } that she have a one night stand with a former pupil or student . what do that bring to the story . where be the linkage . now and i be all for a more european ish style approach and and a random act of whateverness in film and show and and all that and but this be just ridiculous . this do not bring anything meaningful to the story . also and i have see the last frakkin special and in it ron reveal his own cluelessness about the plot represent he couldn not come up with a good end for the story and so . he just do not . it never as much about the character a they make the last episode to be . the whole this be thousand of year in the past idea and the mitochondrial eve thing and be also use in the hitchhiker guide to the galaxy and and believe you me and there be a lot of bsg watcher who know that particular h2g2 storyline . and speaking of hera and now there a storyline that be not work out well and at all . instead we get roslin be do her former pupil who 20 year younger . don not get me wrong and i be all for old woman with young men . the more power to them . but this . just make no sense . all in all and ( the writing in ) this series be as flaw a they intend it character would be . that go even moreso for the last episode . i hope lose and 24 do good and with their series finale .
