One of my favorite things about this one is the fact that the red striped centurions had their inhibitor chips removed a long time ago now. So they, like everyone else, are attempting to rescue Hera voluntarily. Something about killer death machines volunteering to go on a suicide mission to save a little girl always brings a smile to my face.
Gaius and Six seeing each other's 'angel' versions is one of my favorite moments of the show.
And seeing Angela's reaction was what I've been waiting for. 😁
@@phydeux Seeing her reaction to all of it has been a joy.
Spoiler:
"You see them too!" favorite moment of the whole show.
You are going to need to go back and watch a few epsidoes knowing what you know now and be just like the rest of us who still see new things in this, probably one of the best series in Television History.
This and Sopranos for me. Yearly rewatch both of them, and keep re-buying them on the current top tier medium. Where I lived I didnt have Sci-Fi when it aired so downloaded them from the internet the next day. Then I bought the DVD box set, then the BluRay collectors set and I am really looking forward to the next best thing lol
Love Baltar's redemption arc. One of my favorite lines is his: God's not on any one side. God is a force of nature, beyond good and evil. Good and evil...we created those.
Another one is from the very end of the finale when he says to Caprica 6: You know, I know a bit about farming.
😭 I love the farming line so much
@@funnylilgalreacts Same. It really hits you. Hit me for sure, it's one of those scenes that are seared into my memory forever
How about this? God is nature, as in a universal version of Gaia. Good is supporting the natural order and evil is opposing it.
I don’t care what anyone says. The ending to BSG is incredible and I get chills to this day. One of my all time favorite shows. Baltar is just such an amazing character.
I love seeing a spaceship with physical armour, rather than the energy shields we see so often in sci-fi.
Well who needs shields when your armor is so strong it can take hits from nukes? And that's with 50% of the ship's armor removed before the series even starts. lol
@@Linerunner99 without atmosphere nukes aren’t as destructive, but. With the radiation bl as t it’s still a big threat
@kari2570, The first Enterprise only had hull plating. Of course, there'd be little more than miniscule fragments left of it if subjected to only a tiny fraction of the punishment Galactica endured over these few minutes.
It's called hard sci-fi. In that regard its very similar to the Expanse. They needed some magic to facilitate travel ( Epstein drive and FTL jump drives ) but apart from that all tech is real. They use good ol' projectile weapons wtih exploding shells and missiles. No fancy stuff, it's not all that different from what we use nowadays. Also if you read up on the BSG lore you will find that a Jupiter class Battlestar literally have meters thick armor layers so t hey can really face tank high yield nuclear missiles. I also enjoy TV shows wich are more grounded in reality.
The shots of the Galactica crew (Lee, etc.) storming the Colony side by side with the cylon centurions is one of my all-time favorite things. SO epic, and really shows how far their journeys have come since the beginning.
Before the last episode, I just want to say I enjoyed your "reactions" to BSG. You are, by far, the best one on UA-cam. I watch this series every other year since it came out. And it was fun watching it with you. Even though people didn't agree with everything I said and I didn't agree with everything other people said. It was nice getting a fresh perspective. If your going do reaction vids with what I think your going to do next, I'll watch those as well.
You have truly provided this series the justice it deserves, and it has been an honor and privilege to watch you react to it.
Thank you and good hunting!
🥹 thank you
You are the best !
So say we all!
When this finale came out... some people were upset at the way it ended. I wasn't. I thought it was pretty much perfect. But SOME PEOPLE were upset. ...and while you can't be upset or discount people's feelings or opinions... nah. THEY WERE WRONG. It's a fantastic ending to a brilliant series.
Absolutely incredible finale. The “you, see them?” moment is still one of the best scenes in the entire series in my opinion.
This episode pays off SO MANY storylines. And the assault on the Colony is stunning.
'you see them' - just the funniest scene in the whole show
Michael Trucco is one lucky bastard
He broke 4 vertebrae, twice as many as Christopher Reeves, and walked away.
The irony was the bullet to the brain had already been planned.
"I have not been sad to see one Simon taken out, not once." Maybe the next time you see one...
I remember watching this when first broadcast. The pummelling Galactica took from the colony, and you can see the ship visibly being shaken and battered, was tragically mesmerising. You knew there was no coming back from this.
This may have not been planned...but this episode is scheduled to have been released on 4/20 and its episode 20 in season 4....is it a long lost prophecy sent by the twelve colonies...or coincidence? "All this has happened before, and will happen again".
koinkidink
If you live long enough, you’ll see that is true, life is one, long, Groundhog Day, what has happened before will happen again.
So say we all.
Came to say this. Well observed, and keep well observing it every year!
All of this has happened before and it will happen again.
so say we all
How the heck do you only have 93k subscribers? Your reactions are so honest, thoughtful and great to watch from a viewer POV. This show changed the way sci-fi is done and has been an absolute pleasure to be along with you for the ride as you discovered this roller coaster. So say we all!
I appreciate you 🖤🖤
Aghhh, I can't watch one of your videos without mentally re-arranging your Tetris pieces 🤣🤣
😈so… it’s working
@@funnylilgalreacts Speaking of set dressings.... Back in the episode where we discover the Eye of Jupiter & that Kara has it painted it on the wall of her apartment, FLG's lighting off to her left, was a circle of Blue/Green, surrounded by circle of Yellow, surrounded by a circle of Red. Yep FLG was sitting right next to a depiction of the 'Eye of Jupiter' in her set lighting, just as we were all putting the clues for it together in the Episode. " Oh my Gods..., It was right there all along " 😎🌈
Every Battleship has it time but since they have to go there is NO better way to go than Clactica. Dives into the Very Jaws of Hell Itself, stands there taking a beating showing her Spirit before driving in to finish the job then jumps away giving her all to save Her Grew that fought so hard for Her. R.I.P. Galactica, You stand above all others & did not go quietly into the night.
Now this is a comment to say... So say we all.
I'm telling you right now, they should have called this series BALTARstar Galactica, because James Callis frakking killed it the whole series, but this was his moment to really shine when he faced his destiny.
I love how he plays the change in Blatar too. In season 1 when Angel Six tells him that he's an instrument of God, he gets all bloated up, and his ego is all stroked and everything. But here when he's actually completely acting in the role as an instrument of God, he's being open, honest, and vulnerable. Instead of being selfish and self-centered, he's finally being selfless, and it's a believable shift. This is why Baltar is my favorite character, and James is my favorite actor on the show.
Well you can't spell BAttLesTAR without Baltar, so... :)
I think Tigh's "YEAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" is my favourite line of the show. Hogan is so damn funny when he wants to be. Also mary McDonnell absolute killed it this season.
Mine is that kooky laugh he does, perfect cantankerous old man laugh.
When this originally aired when I was in college my friends and I were standing up on our couch, fists clenched, screaming at the TV 😂
Truly the ship named Galactica became a beloved character herself.
These final episodes and how they tie into everything that has been shown and happened throughout the series is one of the best examples of Tight Writing.
Watching the finale so many times even after it aired 15 years ago still holds up and hits hard the same then. A True Classic.
Agreed. Astonishing TV. Really should be recognised as up there with the very best. So good to see a series that folllows a full arc to a proper satisfying conclusion and at no point overstayed its welcome. I alway recommend this, Dark and Twin Peaks to anyone who loves entertaining but thought provoking tv - even above Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad which I also loved.
Stroke of genius breaking up this finale into a three parter. Giving us all a reminder of what you feel every time that "to be continued" pops up? lol
The finale was a 3-part finale so it makes sense 🤨
Yeah, I did feel bad about the To Be Continued but at least we didn’t troll you with the actual To Be Continued that’s at the end of all the episodes 😂 but this episode had five real uploads, the next one had eight. It’s ridiculous.
@@funnylilgalreacts BSG has always had that reputation. Unlike the Expanse, the BSG people just don't seem to like or see the merit that good bona fide reactors like yourself bring to a show, especially now that this is older, I'm sure that you have brought a fresh audience to this wonderful series.
They got awards for the sound mix in CIC at the time. Especially with the part where adama is informing the other units that hera is inbound
Just give this show all the awards.
All these months have been waiting for this weekend!
at 16:10
Angrla: Well I didn't like Skulls anyway.
Me: Yay! You finally remembered his name.
Admittedly this happens just as he dies, but still, it is progress.
Just like Gaeta's phantom pain did... lol
This version of the show is my favorite science fiction show and one of my favorite shows of all time. One of the first things I did after it ended was rewatch the mini series to see how different everybody was at the beginning to how they were at the end.
Absolutely. Hands down. So say we all!
Loved your reaction to head 6 and head Gaius, I had the same reaction when I seen that way back when! A clever scene and made complete sense when you think about it 😉
I wonder if anyone else picked up on the fact that the older Original Model Centurions in the Colony seemed to take far more damage than the more modern Centurions.
What a cliffhanger 😂 looking forward to the finale tomorrow
You didn't include Adama's best line in this edit. Before the battle starts he says he wants the guns to keep firing till they run out of ammo and then the gun captains should start frowning rocks.
Bear wrote an entire soundtrack for the finale that took up a whole disc on the 2 Disc Season 4 OST. "Assault on the Colony" is a 15 minute track. Man, I love Daybreak. I'd change maybe one thing about it, but for all the character stuff, and tying things together and plotness of it, I love it.
Also, recall you were worried about Galactica ramming a basestar in "Islanded in a Stream of Stars?" Well, here it happened.
And how's this for the recursive story played out over and over again: Another duo whose reactions I'm watching just reacted to the Miniseries. "All this has happened before, and will happen again."
Wow. It's been years since I've seen the ending episodes and I forgot how amazingly the opera house sequence blended into reality. That was just masterful camera shot merging.
Uillean pipes. Irish older than Scottish bag pipes. Look. Similar but smaller.
They used them in the new caprica battle pegasus ...
They sound softer than the bag pipe. ( Irish/ Scottish are like cousins. Related )
Regular budget was 1 million per episode. I think this was about 4 million at least
Thanks for the bit of trivia..... Makes sense... Uillean pipes do have a softer, smoother sound to them
@@peadarruane6582 they do peadar ..
@@shanenolan5625 I know them well. The penny just never dropped with this soundtrack
Holy Frak..., Now I'm actually crying in a reaction video... Chalk that one up to the gods !! 😅
You see, this is only my "2nd run thru" of BSG, some 14 years later... here with FLG & all you guys in our lil 12K BSG community 🥰 So say we all !!
25:32 A leap of faith, or Quantum Leap of faith?
That scene of Adama giving command of the fleet to Hoshi felt very bittersweet. It should have been Felix, or Dualla even. But they both lost faith before the end 😢
I sadly never worked on this season, so I was gobsmacked with the twists and turns. Still my favorite series in a long time and it is in the past with so many great ones in the last few years. BSG (2004-2009) Forever!
always loved how they tied the opera house into this even though they had no clue they would do it that way when introducing the opera house. back then many didnt like the finale but I think, even though its not perfect (how can it be), it was very good and satisfying, they answered many questions but left enough open for you to make up your own mind. the balance works really well imo.
Space is less frightening than being deep underwater.
Space doesn't care if you die, it doesn't even hear you scream.
Under the ocean though? That deep salty cold water is constantly looking for any tiny weakness then splat, you become one with the tin can you plugged your playstation controller into.
Bear at this point is just straight up assaulting my ear with his god damn music. Bringing back themes from the Kobol episodes, the Eye of Nebula storyline with that weird sounds are also back, perfectly integrated into the screaming bagpipes in the background. The man has no chill.
Dammit, gotta wait for the finale again lol. Many thanks for allowing us to share this journey with you
I liked the whole series from the beginning, and not just because I was already a fan of the original series. But a lot of the original series is typical of the time, rather reminiscent of TOS, Buck Rogers etc 🚀🛰🛸and I was really excited that they took a new approach for the series.
But I especially liked the ending, 3 episodes, similar to the Mini series, that bring everything important together and you can tell they put a lot of effort into it. I also think the writing is exceptional for this series and I really liked the ending in Daybreak part 3 and the time jump at the end. In my opinion, it was very pleasant that current events and developments at the time were included. 😊There seem to be quite a few people who didn't seem to like it that much, but I thought it was just great (-> Hera etc.) 👍😄
Donnelly Rhodes has a special place in the hearts of many Canadians.
That's why, eh :)
Also, it's "Alligator Head". :)
So many jaw-dropping moments in this part.... and many of them had to do with Gaius and Six!! What a phenomenal show!
Battlestar Galactica came a long way. It originally aired on ABC as a blatant knock off of Star Wars. And then 24 years later, it was rebooted and this is what we got.
There must be some kind of way outta here…❤
It is what needed to be said and in the tone she said it, it wasn't mean, it is what some people with tunnel vision need to hear and his hand on her shoulder after ward was him saying "thanks, I needed that.". You never candy coat anything in the military.
_Babylon 5_ walked so _Battlestar Galactica_ could run and _The Expanse_ could burn hard for Ceres Station.
"Who's Calvin?!?"
He's Denny from The Room, obviously.
"Who is Denny?!?"
Nobody really knows.
Not shown here but that grin between Bill and Saul as Galactica is about to do its last jump into combat... its priceless
I totally forgot about President Lampkin!😎
Great reaction Angela!
There is something about your reactions that remind me why I love these shows! Just think you are inspiring other reactors as well! Warp Reaction was inspired to react to The Expanse! And doing a great job!
Battlestar will always hold a dear spot in my heart! The ending was so bitter sweet! Galactica inspired my fascination with scifi! She is an amazing ship! I rank her right up there with the Rocinante!
In this episode I heard the line " Good Hunting!" It brought a tear to my eye.... Tenya Wa Chesh Gut!
A small thing I enjoy about the ending is how they just pass around titles like candy. *You* get to be admiral, and *you* get to be president, because WHY NOT! It kind of feels like a final acceptance of what Lee said in the trial at the start of the season, that they're no longer the civilization they used to be, they're practically a gang: these titles are almost just ceremonial at this point. Why elect a president, when you can just go "hey, I'll be busy for the next few days so you get to be president now"
Some seriously epic "Space$#!+" On a different 'note', our Lilgal appears to have a lovely singing voice
It is rather magic to see decent sci fi properly appreciated. Thank you.
Pretty sure every neighbor in my block heard my "FU*K" scream a minute ago, when this video ended. It wouldn't be that unusual if this wasn't frakking Spain :)
7:40 Starbuck didn't need to be so harsh about it, but she was ABSOLUTELY right. Hell, she's already died once for him. They're volunteering to die for him and he balks at hooking up a Cylon to his ship. Unfortunately, it's unlikely Adama would have listened to a polite request.
Which is exactly why Kara needed to put it to the Old Man the way she did. He was still thinking like a Colonial officer, and that ship sailed the minute they allied themselves with the rebel Cylons. I know as an Army officer, I depended on my platoon sergeant to keep me straight... and Sergeant First Class Howard was usually very diplomatic. However, there were times when he straight up should have been charged under the UCMJ. But I needed to be brought up short. He made me a better officer, instead of being a butter bar frak up.
This show is exceptionally good overall, but in this finale it really fires on all cylinders. Just mindblowing.
Its been great rewatching this and getting your reaction. Some recommendations for future reactions: Farscape and Falling Skies. And of course the original BSG series.
Farscape starts soon!
@@funnylilgalreacts Farscape was fun, some off the effects may seem a bit outdated now but i loved that series.
Scorpius is a bad ass villan, and maybe the BSG writers took some hints from him, lol.
A Blind Date is set-up by someone you know with someone they know. So it's not like some random person from online. But still you would probably normally still go to a neutral location for the date.
Just random bits and pieces-
1) Love that "Yeah!" Tigh yells when Ellen is gets up on the table in the stripclub.
2) That final Cottle/Roslin scene........
3) Schlagobers and Blood in the opera house.
I've been seeing John Irving callbacks in my media consumption lately. My imagination or archetypes?
Either way - Keep passing the open windows.
I am a Geek, but I turned into a total, spazzed out Geek when they cut the visions of the Opera House into the battle scenes! Just beyond cool. Seeing the Final Five on the observation deck of the CIC. Kid in a candy store. I was hoping beyond hope the first vision of the Opera House back in Kobol's Last Gleaming would show 5 white banners foreshadowing the end of the series, but alas the number count did not match up. Still, everything about this is epic.
3:14 In a manner similar to Pulp Fiction, we are getting the characters origins pre-episode 1. It does seemed strained NOW that we have seen Kara and Lee for 4 seasons, but Kara has always been a effed up person and Lee a do the right thing stick in the mud. This was going to happen. Had we seen this chronologically, the impact of their fates in the final episode would be diminished.
I still wonder if Caprica Six killed Gaius' father. "He's gone to live on a happy farm" sounds what parents say to their kids when a pet dies.
So excited to finish this with you and everyone!
The good news is, after the Finale you can watch The Plan and Blood and Chrome!
luv your reactions to this series just sad it is almost over but excited to see you make it to the end.
@11:25 Funnylilgal that means they are Fedaykin. Wait, wrong universe. That's Dune.
lol yeah, Head Gaius belonged to Caprica. The few times he talked to Gauis he was just visiting.
I should have waited until tomorrow afternoon. Now I have to wait for the premier.
Caprica... watch it. That's an order, soldier.
A polite request, really.
But an order, soldier!!
No. Cringey show
Love that literally nobody saw Hoshi became Admiral of the fleet (literally highest military rank in the show)
The lack special effects in the last season was saved up for the finale for budget reasons
The last battle of the Galactica is its most epic battle. This battle marks the last point in the Second Cylon War. Although seeing the Galactica get slapped on the back was emotionally painful even for me, this girl has already been in such scrapes. However, such an end is better for her than just leaving her to die.
As I said, all paths have led to this moment.
Seeing the Cylons and Humans fighting together was also epic, and you know, you're right. Cavill can just come back again in 40 years and finish off Humans and other Cylons.
P.S.The end will be epic.
Open the floodgates!
I believe Calvin only exists in this extended version of the finale, he definitely wasnt part of the original cut, and understandably so. He kind of comes out of nowhere, and doesnt really do much for the shows narrative, nor does he add much character development to Gaius, which is presumably the purpose behind his introduction 🤔
I could have sworn he was in the original cut when it aired on TV,, but I've seen it so many times, it kinda all gets mixed together.
I don't recall him and I only saw the regular version up until seeing him on this. Was like, who the frak is that?
Only in extended version.
I sang out Hot for Teacher when you did 😆
It's so movingly touching to see how viscerally you're affected by the unrelenting punishment Galactica takes here!!! 💗
To follow up on what I suggested yesterday, I'm not at all sure there wasn't something in Gaius' words which didn't give Cavil some reason to reflect on his place and worldview, not simply a leverageable opportunity to take advantage of, in the moment. I wouldn't put odds against him having complied with the conditions Tigh laid out in his offer. Of course, exigent circumstances we're about to see precluded such a possibility, but a different path for him and those still following him is interesting to speculate on, IMO.
Nobody wants to see their favourite character getting the crap beaten out of them😢
Bang the bong!
Interestingly, Caprica grabbed Gaius not through his pants, but through his heart. Isn't it?
Okay, I forgot about Admiral Hoshi haha. That was a fun moment, especially if you watched the webisodes.
I'm hoping you'll make one last stop in the BSG world and do The Plan.
So excited for the finale drop. Only 6hrs to go. Gonna miss your BSG reactions. Though, there is a new BSG show in development. Maybe we will get some more Angels, Angela and BSG?
After all this time, still, so many feels.
YES! HERE WE GO
"The Plan" is certainly worth watching. Caprica, eh, you can go without that one. Only the die hard fans are going to bother with that one.
I personally didn't like what I saw of "Caprica" at all... but the bf really liked it.
Aaaahhhh!!!!! one more ep! :D
Nah I found caprica to be kinda shit after watching bsg. Felt like a teenage drama :(
I didn't see it adding anything of real importance to the BSG Universe beyond the origins of the Cylons and how decadent and hedonistic Caprica was before the wars and the fall.
Well that's a hell of a coincidence, reacting to S4E20 on 4/20. Lol. OR IS IT?!
I would love to tell you I was a mastermind like Taylor Swift but… It was 100% of coincidence, but I was delighted when I realized it. My OCD was very much satisfied.
@@funnylilgalreacts LOL, I bet. Especially now that I just saw your notification for 4x21. OCD Hat Trick right there.
It’s like, totally the universe, coming together man. Woah. 😵💫
Definitely watch "Blood and Chrome"!!!
18:46 Any new or modified theories about Head Six and Head Gaius? Just asking 😸. I have only been waiting for 4 seasons for your reaction to this moment Angela...
I gotta wait until later to see the final part? FLG doing a To Be Continued to us?
...I would like to rage.
😁
The new Cylon Centurions look fine in CGI. The original series Centurions would have looked better with people wearing the costumes.
Please add videos of these .i love to see those.i am fan of startrek
TIL (relearned?) where the breaks are between Daybreak Parts 1, 2, and 3 😅
I know i said before I'd save my comments on god for the finale, mostly i was waiting for Baltar's speech
I'm not a big fan of overt religiosity in shows but i really appreciate how neither side (Polytheistic humans, monotheistic Cylons - which was in itself an interesting choice given you, know the audience 😬) is presented as being overtly correct in hindsight (years after watching the finale live), Baltar presents almost a Deist/God As The Watchmaker perspective. Yeah, God/Gods/The Sublime Influencer created the universe and set things in motion, but none of this would have happened if individial characters hadn't made choices.
God creates Man, Man creates Cylon, Cylon destroys man, -women inherit the earth-, Rinse, repeat. It all seems pre-ordained but it isn't really. Cavil has to choose to commit revenge, Adama has to *choose* to leave the fight and protect humanity. Starbuck has to *choose* to trust Roslin and Roslin has to *choose* to believe her visions.
Ultimately they cylons have to *choose* to trust the humans and vice versa -- this could have all ended earlier in S4 if D'anna didn't accept the alliance.. at no point did Zeus descend from Olympus (despite what Zarek may tell you 😅) to tell the characters "You will do X. You will do Y."
If you're going to use god as a real element in your series, that's a pretty good way to do it (or just have god be a set of extradimensional aliens to whom you teach baseball)
On another note the merging of the opera house and Galactica/CIC was a frakking incredible experience and Bear knocks it out of the park
How about manifestations of the will of a sentient Universe, as an alternative to "angels"?
'Hoshi' means star in japanese.
