Watched the final episode of Battlestar Galactica. I think it may have been better if the show had ended before they'd got the go ahead for the prequel, as I think things that were hinted at in the final episode, such as Kara Thrace suddenly disapearing (hinting at that she was never really properly alive again) may have been explained more explicitly. The ending seem logical though for the most part and everything got wrapped up nicely. The first 2/3rds of the episode which had the bulk of the action were the best in my opinion, I loved the part where Baltar and Six come into the CIC and Adamas kicking one of the Cylons to the ground.
I think they could have done better by keeping the relevent religions seperate, mono/poly-theist insteading of tying them both together towards the end (Baltar's speech), also Kara's random co-ordinate jump seemed a tad convinient, if she was assigning numbers to notes previously, surely the fact they made up a 3 point co-ordinate would have occured to her before.
But overall I really enjoyed the episode, just sad that such a great series has ended, but then if they dont end they tend to stop being so great pretty quick (Prison Break for example). I'm quite looking forward to the iminent release of the Caprica Pilot as well as getting my hands on the entire battlestar series on DVD.
UPDATE: It would appear there will be a 2h Battlestar Special called "The Plan" from the perspective of the cylons. Which should be good, I did like characters like Cavil, and alot of the humanoid models didnt get alot of screen time.
