Battlestar Galactica Reviews

When the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica launched a few years back I was immediately hooked.  Although the special effects are great, this show is really about the relationships between the characters and how people react when faced with overwhelming tragedy.  With complex story lines and phenomenal acting, Battlestar is not only one of the best sci fi shows of all time but simply one of the best shows of any genre period.

The old one was cool because it depicted a whole different culture and had cool adventures and fight scenes. In the new series people are wearing business suits and dresses that look like what you would see on a soap opera. I enjoyed this series but it would of been better if there were more cylon fight scenes. Whats up with the furniture. Did they rent it from rent to own and pretended an alien culture had the same idea of taste. Everyone is a drunk too.

I just finished watching the final season of current Battlestar Galactica and I have to say this entire series has been one of the best sci-fi shows I have ever seen.    The storyline was intriguing and the characters have an incredible chemistry together.    I couldn't wait to see the next episode even though I knew each one brought it all closer to the end of the series.    I was thrilled to see there will be some additional movies/episodes.   There was a promotional piece a special/movie that will show things from the cylons point of view.  I can't wait! :)

One of the things I've...

I borrowed the DVDs and just started watching.   I can't believe I haven't been watching this all along.   I saw the original growing up and it was silly and fun for its time so I enjoyed it for what it was.    The new show borrows names and basic concepts from the original and everything else is a world apart.    The characters, story-lines and visual effects are stunning, intelligent and some of the best TV I have ever seen. 

I just caught up to this season and although I'm sad to see it ending it is also fun to see the things that a show can do when they know it is their last season.   ...

This series is definitely not for children, as several reviewers have stated (or complained), but I'm not sure anyone would mistake it for that, so why are people complaining? The writing is incredible. It's one of the top shows on tv as far as writing and production values go. The characters and their interactions never fail to interest me. I haven't seen Season 3 yet, but Seasons 1 & 2 were incredible.  I can't imagine even comparing it to the original because they are totally different. Fans of the old series can like this one if they just separate the two totally. It's kind of like a beef...

I watched the original show when I was a child and I feel like this new version of the show grew up with all of us. 

The show is darker than the original in a very good way.   The story-lines are modern and parallel much of what is going on in the news today.    I've always loved Sci-Fi that tackles social and policital issues in comparison to what is happening in "their" world.  

It is too bad season 4 will be the last season, however, it gives the writers some great liberties of not having to worry about how this will fit with next season and gives them the ability to give viewers the...

Battlestar Galactica is an amazing show with great writing and acting. The characters are not the almost perfect cardboard cut-outs that you may remember from the original series. These characters have depth, faults, fears, and all of the other characteristics that make up great men and women.

 Watch this show. You won't be disappointed.

One of the best shows on TV in the sci-fi genre or any other. The characters are developed properly and you end up feeling a connection with each of them. The plot twists are extraordinary especially at the end of season 3 regarding the new Cylon models. If you enjoy action, drama and especially sci-fo you will love this show. Enjoy !
