The series finale is about as audacious and ambitious a piece of television as I’ve ever seen.
I don’t think it’s coincidence that this was the episode to reintroduce the concept of Cylon projection.
Genre fiction requires the infodump.
The ensemble of players, above everything else, is what makes Battlestar Galactica come to life.
The episode zip along with verve, finding little time for the character moments the last few episodes have been filled with.
This is probably one of those episodes that most of the diehard fans will hate because it’s a little strange.
It sets what must be all of the remaining plot wheels for the series’s end game in motion.
The episode wasn’t a slam-bang premiere, outside of its opening space battle.
