The search for our own humanity!
November 4, 2009

Being a Star Trek fan from the beginning, I never thought any science fiction program could be better. BSG is the best series I have ever known; not so much because it was science fiction and had great visual effects with music that cannot be matched, but because it was an excellent example of good writing and having an end in sight from the beginning. Although I get a little turned off to violence and gore, it was the writing that kept bringing me back to what is real in life. Each one of us has evil and bad inside of us. BSG demonstrates that we can live with these demons, and still be good souls, in the journey of seeking our own humanity. I learned a lot about myself and I am changed by the brilliance of this series that depicted characters in their own life struggles to understand what it is to be human.Was this review helpful to you?

No equal....

This show has no equal. It is in a class by itself. And I love how they incorporated music into the script. The music is a character unto itself. BEAR McCREARY's music is astounding. I have all of his BSG CDs. Season 2, *Baltar's Dream* is nothing short of mesmerizing. I hear he(Mr. McCreary) has been playing (conducting) to standing-room-only performances with his BSG Orchestra out there in L.A. I hope, hope, hope he tours. Or maybe a TV-cable-special? HBO, PBS--somebody!!!Was this review helpful to you? Sign in to rate -

This show puts science fiction back on the menu
August 28, 2009I've watched it from the start with a very skeptic attitude and have been hooked since the mini series...I give BSG a standing ovacious 10 in everyway.
The writers and direction has been without equal and someone has put heart felt thought into EVERY episode....BRAVO!Was this review helpful to you? Sign in to rate -

If you do not watch from episode #1 to the very last episode, you would have missed one of the best series ever played on television.From the cast to the special effects and not even the least of all the new twist of the story made it a must see.This show has it all drama,action,love/hate situations with some of the cast. Do not forget to watch the ending credits they are a blast,lmaoWas this review helpful to you? Sign in to rate -

Needed One More Season
May 22, 2009
By Jules See all Jules's reviews (2)
The last few episodes...actually, the last half of the final season - should have been expanded. The hybrid's evolution was crammed in, the evolution of the "Final Five" was way disjointed, and the realization that all of humanity was genetically linked to Hera was brushed through too quickly.
It was a wonderful series that took us on a mythical journey to a brick wall...transported us through the wall, and rushed us through the conclusion.
I down-rated the show only because of the ending.Was this review helpful to you? Sign in to rate
