The head dork of the series says she was an angel. Of course he said it in an interview that no one will ever read, as opposed to actually, you know, FRAKKING EXPLAINING IT IN THE SHOW.

This made no sense at all....she was the harbinger of salvation, not death.
WTF was that? Total nonsense. The entire Starbuck storyline, in the end, total mumbo-jumbo
nonsense.

No point in fearing the inevitable. Less than .001% of humanity gets "immortalized." I personally could care less what happens to me or my name or my "legacy" after i'm dead.
I'll be dead.

Worst scene in the
entire series. I literally threw my tomahawk at my dart board. (yes, it stuck.

Actually i wish they had never gone down that road at all. Just a bunch of gibberish IMO.

Second dumbest scene in the entire series.
He was a survivor and leader of his race, there's no effing' way he'd just blow his brains out.
What a totally lame, lame, lame scene.

Made no sense whatsoever. Why would obsolete models be kept around in working order for decades after they'd been retired?
They wouldn't.

The ending was fitting for the last 2 crap-laced seasons.
It is a shame the way the show spiraled into some pseudo-religious toilet the last 2 seasons. What a waste.

I think in the end it was transferred into.......
Crap.

Not even remotely close on ANY count.
Bladerunner is what battlestar galactica tried to be and so TOTALLY failed at. Frankly, in the final analysis, i liked the ORIGINAL show better. Much better.
Really, the last 2 seasons of Neo-BSG were pure trash.
Like new Metallica vs old. Just no comparison at all. None.
