cinemablend.com — Getting weirdly preachy would have been just fine, if only he’d really come up with legitimate answers to the questions that have been hanging over fans heads for years now. Why the frak does Baltar have an imaginary friend? Answer: It’s God! Why isn’t Starbuck dead and what the frak is she? Answer: Oh it’s God! Why did the cylons destroy...

"I've decided to ditch everything and start over quite a few times in my life. There's certain things that were never on the table for tossing away, like anything that would keep me from dying in the next few years."Or more importantly, your *kids* dying...

Yes, but *all* humans don't do *all* the *same* irrational things.After all, one of the major things going on in this series was people manuvering for political power. Never mind that they were down to a mere 40k out of billions. Never mind that they were probably all going to die. There were *still* those who wanted to be the "big fish in a little pond."So tell me, can you not see at least *some* of those 40k going "I know, our little colony will sneak in the tools/knowledge to build guns and like twenty years from now, we'll take over the entire world!"No. They all went meekly to their "back to nature" deaths...Yeah, right...

"Adds some nice emotion."And helps point out that the entire series was kinda pointless...I mean, if we're all just trapped in doing the same things again and again and again even *with* their massively unlikely "fresh start"...then what's the point?

"The freed cylons could have come back to that ball of dirt and wiped everyone out"Actually that would've been a kind of cool way to *continue* the cycle--the Cylons are the only "living" things left, and eventually, in a few thousand years, they create a biological species which rebels and nukes them to hell, then go and colonize a planet, where after a few thousand years they create robots to do their bidding, etc. :-)

Billy was actually killed off because he got a better offer and was quitting the show to go work on another.

Everyone glosses over the big problem with Hera being "Eve". The crew spread itself over the different continents which would put people all over the world. Now, we are to believe that in 150,000 years, or roughly 7500 generations, that Hera's bloodline outwitted, outplayed, and outlasted every other female's. 7500 generations to wipe out traces of the female side of roughly 15,000 other bloodlines. That's not even including the native population that it was implied the new inhabitants would mate with.

Thank you for typing out nearly everything I felt!!Angells, really? Frakin' angels.And I really enjoyed how Starbuck DISAPPEARS while Appollo is not only talking to her but answering her question! Thanks for ditching him right when he loses his dad & has now lost everyone he's ever loved!

The last episode aside, I still think she was the first human/cylon hybrid with the missing "Daniel" being her father.

Zomborg, why is that that a male who fools around is a womanizer and a woman who does the same thing is a "slut"? Are you a parochial bigoted pig male chauvinist? Are you a throwback to stone-age patriarchal societies? Do you hate women? Are you living in 1950 suburbia? Can't you treat women as your equal?In short: are you a digger?
