hilsI was going to try and write for a bit but BSG has broken my brain (in a good way). Might as well try and get this down while it's all still fresh in my mind
I think this is the only show that I have watched from the beginning all the way through to its natural conclusion (rather than getting cancelled I mean) What I loved most about it was the way it so nicely and perfectly tied everything up. I don't know if this ending had been planned from the beginning or not but it felt like it and that's all that matters. I can't actually imagine any other way of ending it.
Amazingly my favourite character in this episode was Gaius. I mean I've always loved him but he really surprised me here. Again, it's one of those things that really makes sense. He was the one to start the war (ignoring Adama crossing the treaty line for a moment) so of course he should be the one to end it. I love that he came full circle and settled down with Caprica to become a farmer.
I loved that the opera house visions were tied up too. It made me all tingly when Caprica and Gaius went into CIC and saw the final five up top. Perfect.
The other thing I really liked was Tyrol and Tory. I've been waiting and waiting for him to find out what Tory did to Cally and I was starting to think it had been forgotten (which is the sort of thing that happens on Smallville on a weekly basis) but then it came at the perfect moment.
I actually cried over Kara and Sam, which is weird as I hated them for being a block to Lee/Kara. LOL! This show really isn't about shipping for me any more. I just love it for what it is.
Cried for Adama and Roslin too, which I never thought would happen either. It just broke me when he took off his wedding ring and put it on her finger.
I love that we never did find out what Kara really was. I suspect Ron will have answers later but I don't think we need them really. I don't anyway. I think she's with Sam again now, hence his 'see you on the other side'. I was half hoping she and Lee were going to settle down and have babies but I guess it was never meant to be.
I loved the inner-Caprica and inner-Gaius were angels, or messengers at least. I bet most people hated the flash forward but I loved it. Gaius's 'it doesn't like to be called that' comment was fascinating.
Will it all happen again? Who knows. I like Caprica's feeling that something will be different this time.
