I've fallen a few weeks behind (seen up to episode 15) as I've been too busy to give them my full attention and I'm now sorely tempted to hold off until I have them all and then sit down and watch them all in one go.

It would be a superb day (reminicent of when I watch all of 24 S4 in one day) but I'm not sure if I can avoid giving in to temptation.

Frack me with a toaster what an end. I'm really going to miss that show. It wasn't perfect but when it hit the right notes it topped anything else out there. I'll miss it because there's now no spaced based sci-fi on tv anymore. No Star Trek, Stargate, B5, Farscape, and now no BSG. I'll also miss it because even though it was set in space with robots it was more down to earth than most shows, divine intervention aside Damn what an end. Its like being on a rollercoaster thats on fire while having sex with everything blowing up around you.

I want to hit Ronald D Moore.

Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

That planet is Earth? We’re not going to find out, “Oh, there’s this other Earth over here...” This is the only Earth we’ll see?

They have found Earth. This is the Earth that the 13th Colony discovered, they christened it Earth. They found Earth.


I think we had all accepted that Earth was our Earth, at least its how it read. Then he drops in our actual Earth and I just wanted to hit him for playing us all like that. It was brilliant.


End Spoiler Alert!

Watched it last night, fantastic, great at everythink it does well.

I'm going to miss this program, loved the space sounds, the broken ships, the realistic way they flew, the drama and the liberal use of the work Frak

The ending was fantastic. It was a lot more upbeat than I was expecting, definitely a valentine for the fans. The CGI was top notch, especially loved the night flyby of Caprica city.

Also, how haut did Caprica Six look in that black dress in the Caprica flashback?

I know I'm a fair few weeks behind everyone else. Just saw the final episode and as everyone else has said what an ending! I really will genuinely miss this series. I agree with Pete in that when it hit the right notes, it blew everything else away. For a series it had a lot of damn good twists and a lot of stuff that you didn't see coming. Excellent visuals even if it was CGI, especially in HD.

Another thought, what the hell am I going to watch now? Terminator Chronicles has finished for this series, that leaves Eureka around July which is *very* hit and miss.

Interesting to see what they are going to wheel out on the sci-fi channel now. More Firefly anyone?

Well I have avoided temptation, forgotten what happened in eps11-15 so now have 11-20 waiting for me. Mrs DL has been booked to go to Brno 12-15 June so I have my weekend Now I just need to make sure that I have suitable "supplies" in for that weekend so I can really enjoy it.
