Battlestar Galactica is a great show. Everything about it is top notch. With that I have to say to everyone that has had some part in bringing BSG to life…..
FRAK YOU!
This show has pulled me in and won’t let me go. And now after watching Daybreak pt 1. I realize that there is only one more night of this great show, and from where I’m sitting it looks like no one will survive beyond it. No one. WTF?!
Roslyn is dying. She can barely stand on her own, and yet I want a miracle to happen. The Old Man can’t die. He mustn’t die. But you’re putting a gun to his head that he won’t be able to stare down the opponent out of. Hera has had a total of about 20m of screen time total throughout the entire series and I want the Galactica to swoop in and carry her home to Athena and Helo. Helo, your pleas to the Admiral for a raptor made me want to suit up and go find your daughter. Athena, please please please have faith. Kara, I want to know as much as you do, what you truly are. What the secret is behind your life. Boomer, you had a chance at redemption and you failed me. You shot the Old Man and I still want to forgive you, but you keep frakking it up. Dee, my lovely, beautiful, and totally hot Dee. I hope you finally found peace. Gaeta, how did you go from being the most loyal to the most treacherous? I don’t know if I can ever forgive you, despite your intentions. Baltar, you were interesting in the beginning, but you’re just full of shit and I have no problem skipping through your scenes. Sorry, but your road of redemption via religion makes me want to shoot you just so I don’t have to hear you babble anymore.
Bear McCreary(?) and everyone involved with bringing that “All along the watchtower” version to life, and using it through the series. You frakking rock! I had read the synopsis to the episode where Kara plays it on piano. I knew it was going to happen. And yet I still jumped up and cheered when it was played full force. (Tigh’s reaction was absolutely priceless. That man deserves an award based on that scene alone).
Right now I feel like Dee felt. Holding on to hope for so long, only for it to come to and end and not knowing where to go to from here. There’s one more showing. One last chance for all of these desperate situations, all of this fighting to survive, to pay off.
And that ladies and gentlemen is the sign of a great show. It’s not watched, it’s not heard. It’s felt.
