Great Battlestar

If you did not see the 2 hour final episode of Battlestar Galactica and are a fan, be sure and don't miss it. You can register or login at Hulu, which is a free online TV & movie site. There you can watch all the episodes of the final season. The picture quality and sound are great! The SciFi Channel website has also made the episodes available, but I haven't seen this set. Therefore, have no idea about the pix and sound quality. It almost has to be great too.

There are some interesting twists. Some things are predictable. Kara Thrace is neither human or cylon. Think about that. Gaius Baltar may be the most interesting character in this episode. The ending is moving, spiritual and well written. The cynics will be cynical, but I really enjoyed the great acting, the plot and the finality. Many things ended as I had hoped. Some surprised me. Don't miss any of it. Pause if you have to leave the Tivo or computer. This is not just great scifi, it's great television. That's not a phrase used much these days. I give it 5 out of 5 stars. Now we can look forward to the spin off, Caprica. It is scheduled to air early next year, but the two hour pilot episode will be available next month in DVD format on the 21st. The storyline takes place 50 years before the latest BSG series and involves the Adama family and proto-cylons.
