Awesome?

I don't think so!

It was soooooo predictable and so fucking lame I nearly cried.

That ending's been done, and better, in other sci-fi.

All that God shit? FUCK OFF with your religious BULLSHIT, America.

The god thing was the only rational way of tying up nearly everything in one episode. Ideally they would've drawn the ending out over another episode but I'm happy with the way it finished up.

As for predictable... nothing about this show was ever predictable.

the plan is out in "fall" (spring)

the dvd of daybreak will be about 1/2 hour longer too - clearer that the colony got sucked away etc

I thought the finale was a mixture of awesome "holy shit!" and "fuck yeah" moments and others where I was tempted to smash my cajones on the arm of my couch to distract me from how lame they were.

"Fuck yeah" moments included Caville shooting himself in the head (though it was also a bit of a WTF?), Galactica ramming the colony, Ed Olmos puking on himself (how many times have I been there?) and Tyrol snapping the black chick's neck (and fathering the Scottish).

Lame moments included Kara disappearing, Ron Moore's cameo (actually, the entire last sequence), the ease at which they found and escaped with the kid, Caville really just not being that bright... and heaps more.

I really enjoyed a lot of it. Still trying to work out if the horrifically terrible aspects spoiled the whole thing.

For those after more battlestar.. and who isn't?

Battlestar Galactica: The Plan

Starting before the events of the miniseries, the story focuses on familiar characters including Cylon Number One, known as Cavil (Dean Stockwell), Resistance Leader Sam T. Anders (Michael Trucco) and Chief Galen Tyrol (Aaron Douglas). In the beginning, the Cylons had a plan, but it didn't account for one thing: survivors. During the chaotic aftermath of the destruction, two powerful Cylon agents struggle with plots and priorities on the human ships that got away, and among the resistance fighters who were left behind.

June!
