This steaming turd. Can we discuss this, and why the Cylon detection

It's really a shame, I feel bad for Olmos having to be in this shit.

Literally Cara is just a whore who can't stay put.
Having all these unlikable characters makes you really not give a shit about the show when nothing bad happens to them.

Is it considered utter dog shit around here is that why people don't discuss it?

Not to mention it being pretentious as shit calling people Greek god names.

Is it even worth watching for the end?
At the moment I've dropped it mid season 3.

>>79139227
Considering that the best episode of the show, Gaeta's mutiny, is in the fourth season; I'd say you're a stupid cuck.

>>79139227
The very end of three, past the filler, is okay but it never reaches season 1 or 2 quality again

Lol @ these awful critique attempts.
Stick to baseless insults, you don't have the intellect to go into detail.

>>79139307
Does the Balter thing with the woman in his head ever get explained if so please tell I've dropped this bull shit for now

>>79139319
Does anyone have a viewing guide or something?

>>79138615
This is my favourite series of all time so fuck you.
The end could have been a lot better but I still liked it.

>>79139451
Of course. It's not all that important in the grand scheme of things though.

>>79139540
How could you put up with all the annoying characters like madam president and cara who never get their comeuppance

>>79139510
Just watch the show or don't, faggot.

>>79139540
>favourite
Mine too. Never been one to re-watch a series but I've seen BSG a few times.

>>79139451
Yes, but the explanation is fucking stupid.

>>79139586
Umm it's literally the most important question I can think of that the series comes up with. Is he insane or is there actually a reason

>>79139540
Fuck you I just came from watching Babylon 5 and it's 10000x better than this.

>>79139642
>Umm it's literally the most important question I can think of that the series comes up with.

I don't think I've ever said this, but I think Battlestar Galactica may be going over your head.

>>79139635
Go one tell me then

>>79139588
By being an adult and realizing you don't have to like everyone and not everything that you don't like is an insult to you directly.

>>79139227
The reveal of the final 5 is literally one of the worst, show ruining plot twists in history.

You're better for having dropped it before seeing that bullshit.

>>79139676
Name another then bitch, because the show is directionless at the moment except hurr Pollo and zeus must find earth. Reality check this show is poorly written because then who are the TITANS.

>>79139720
Thankyou dear kind Sire for saving me.
What are the final five exactlly?

>>79139679
She's an angel.

>Starbuck
I literally think this show is targeted towards hipsters who find star trek too sci for their tastes.

>tfw too intelligent for bsg

>>79139722
The show is about the merits of utilitarianism and questions of artificial sapience.

Baltar's hallucinations are character drivel. They explain it. It's not important. Just keep watching.

>>79139784
Oh god they pulled a Lost christ all fucking mighty I thought he was having a psychosis.

>>79139752
>Thankyou dear kind Sire for saving me.
You know what, you're too much of a sheep to fully appreciate this show. Spoil it for yourself so we can stop listening to you spew stupid.

>>79139752
The showrunner reaching into his ass and pulling out a big huge turd

Quit watching at Exodus Part 2 imo, season 4 episode 4.

>>79139808
>artificial sapience
It doesn't deal with this issue in any way shape or form except robots da bad man

>>79138615
Because it didn't fucking work and no one trusted baltar

>>79139865
I've stopped half way through season 3 when everyone including madame president decides to become a professional boxer

>>79139882

Right
First off, Galactica is a Jupiter-class Battlestar. Pegasus is a Mercury-class. She doesn't need to retract her flight pods when she jumps.
Pegasus is twice the size of Galactica.
She has a Viper-manufacturing bay as well.
And let's not forget

>Beast

>>79141241
Whatever, I'm just glad your shipfu is burning up in new capricas orbit

>>79138615
I think the writers all started hitting the drugs really hard starting with the second season. They started without a plan and assumed they could make it up as they went along but all their inspiration was lost in a wave of weed and coke.

>>79139227
I dropped it in season 3 and from what I've heard I didn't miss anything. It's all downhill after the Pegasus shows up.

>>79139451
"God did it"

>>79139808
>The show is about the merits of utilitarianism and questions of artificial sapience.
Yeah? What's it's point? Because from what I saw it brings up these issues but never actually addresses them, just uses it as a thin veneer over a shitty soap opera interspersed with space battles.

The episodes on new caprica at the beginning of season 3 are pure kino
Season 3 does have some pretty shitty filler though and way too much whining about muh feelings

Season 4 has its moments but the end is lost levels of dogshit

And that Gayatri Hindu song at the beginning of very episode. I thought it was going to turn out to be some long epic pilgrimage to earth and all I get it kack

Not even that, it's ripped straight from Half-Life 2.
Combine = Cylons
Baltar = Breen
Humans = Humans

They forgot.

>>79142289
Do recall that Pegasus was the one that was supposed to survive for that very reason; Lee screwed up that plan by being a hero, ostensibly because of Daddy issues but also because Galactica had a better bakery.

This is honestly better and more consistent writing than anything else in season 3.

I consider it a deconstruction of sci-fi rather than a straight sci-fi series.

"Deconstruction" is the new way of saying "it's shit but I did it on purpose" right?

>>79142522
What and have Carra and Pollo fight it out and some how the beef between Carra and that other chick is forgotten about?

This shit has nothing on trek

>>79142611
Pretty much. EVA and Lain were both pseudo-deep that ultimately owe themselves to the creator having a mental breakdown and deliberate contrivances, respectively. But because they do a few things differently and make you more aware of the meta side of the genre, suddenly they're brilliant statements on the genre itself.

The writers strike took the show from a somewhat realistic look at how people would act in that situation to Moore's mormon space fantasy

I watched all of Star Trek, Babylon 5, FIrefly and need a new series.
Can someone recommend me something that isn't totally shit like bsg.

It's really a shame because the series started off so well. Season 1 was near perfect, Season 2 was pretty damn good and then it drops off like the writing crew changed half way through.

>>79142762
>The writers strike took the show from a somewhat realistic look at how people would act in that situation to Moore's mormon space fantasy
When did the writers' strike start? I thought it was after the show had started decaying.

and the mary sue pilot/mechanic/etc(even jesus) bitch

Reminder, do not watch battle star galatica.
It is a terrible show and the writing is terrible also.

>>79142488
It started out as sci fi but then shoved way too many science fantasy shit in there which ruined the suspension of disbelief

At the end even the characters themselves didn't care about the mythological bullshit anymore. Whenever some crazy shit happened they just kind of went "meh, stranger things have happened"

What sickens me is the high score on imbe, just proves people will watch anything.

>>79144776
Most of the show was good
I've rewatched it several times
The ending was pretty bad but I would still say the show overall was really good
Probably one of the best sci fi shows in the 2000's although I'd say it's definifely a tier below stargate SG1 and Atlantis

>>79144858
>Most of the show was good
Only the first season and a half.

>>79144858
Stargate is it's own special kind of shit but at least the writing is more solid that this shit.

>>79144909
This desu senpai

>>79144905
Maybe it's because I haven't watched it in a while but I don't remember seasons 2 and 3 as being that bad and I even remember a few episodes from season 4 that I liked, like the gaeta mutiny episodes

Not letting this thread go the way of bsg's writing.
