About this show

One of television's most celebrated dramas, "Battlestar Galactica" is the classic adventure of a ragtag fleet of humans, the sole survivors of a devastating nuclear attack by the robot cylons. Faced with an un-winnable battle against a deadly enemy, they are forced to flee under the protection of their one remaining warship, the outdated Battlestar Galactica. Pursued by the cylons - some of whom have now taken human form - Commander Adama (Edward James Olmos) and President Roslin (Mary McDonnell) lead these last remnants of humanity in search of a new home... a planet called Earth.

A solid 3/5 and I love sci-fi but this show is just way too hyped. Wish I had tracked which episodes you should skip entirely because some episodes should be skipped entirely. Show would have been better as a 30 minute episodes to force the writers into a tighter timeframe. Definitely good parts in this series but there's quite a bit of downtime between them.

From past experience, I loved the show. I consider it a noteworthy experience for any sci-fi fan. However, I am not in the habit of terrible trades. Consuming media takes time from reality with no real payoff other than a decent memory to show for it. So the price is about 99.9% too high for the quality of the goods sold & that's why even though BSG deserves a perfect score, for the purpose of this interface and the obscene price gouging, you get a flatline 0 stars in my books.

This is poorly written. There are far too many plot holes and anomalies to ignore. I was expecting something worth watching after the mini series, but that's not what I got.
