Just saw the season3 finale.

For heaven’s sake! It’s absolutely jaw-to-floor one. I must say – one of the best currently aired! Can’t wait for season 4…

Colin, you definitely have to start watching the show. Grab seasons 1&2 somewhere and download the 4 episodes of season 3.

Seriously. It’s good.

I was really starting to question the show with the first couple of episodes of S03. First we get Tigh going all al-Queda on us, then there was the B.S. revisionism when we returned to the Rescue of Cally at the Cylon firing line (when the episode prior ended, we saw her running and she flinched when the gunfire began, but was definitely still on her feet… When the show picked up just before it ostensibly left off, we have the Chief rescuing her so that the gunfire can *start*, and then there’s the bulletheads’ unnaturally long pause before firing, to give the Chief time for his heroics — and the civilian targets time to panic and scatter, while the bulletheads stood there with their guns fixed doing nothing… c’mon.)
But S03E04 restored my faith. Two of the best quotes so far, this season or any: “All hands, brace for turbulence.” “Well, this should be different.”

Now, I agree with you that its a great show. But, for me, I don’t think anything can surpass Buffy the Vampire Slayer as best TV show ever.

Come on! SMG, vampires, , werewolves, demons, ghosts, lesbian witches..does it really get better than that?

As you know, I have yet to see a single episode. But my brother-in-law told me about the scene with the Galactica entering Earth’s orbit – so I watched it on YouTube to see what all the fuss was about. I didn’t think it as special as I thought it would be – perhaps it was over hyped with all the comments like “Best show ever” and “best scene in TV history, etc”.

I think I will have to watch BSG from the beginning to get accostumed to all involved, so that I can now how truly bad ass that move was.

I must say I cannot recall ever being so gripped and blown away by a visual medium, either small or big screen, than I was by that BSG S3 episode four! It is certainly the best show ever.

I agree with you Matt, BSG is awesome! Although I must say that Firefly still is closest to my heart. Damn, I miss that serie…

One word: Awesome! That last episode was great! Loved it and that just proved why I am a fan of this series.

@Dan: You sir, are half the reason I wrote this post. As much as I wanted to tell everyone how much I love this series, I was hoping to attract others who share this love so we can all geek out.

@Miha: I picked them up at a comic/toy shop in Toronto. You can get them all over the place online. I really want a Viper Mark II, but they’re sold out and going for ridiculous prices on eBay.

@Kyle: Thanks for the correction. I forgot the first episode was actually 1 and 2.

@roraz: Baltar was left with “Caprica” Six – so I’m assuming he left with the Cylons. Clearly, he couldn’t return to Galactica.

As for Tigh (correct spelling, I looked it up and corrected mine), I can’t get over the mess he made when Adama was out of commission. And all of the Ellen-influenced mistakes… simply unforgivable. Bill is far too lenient.
