Battered, nuked, broken, but NEVER defeated. Raise a glass of ambrosia to Galactica, greatest of the Battlestars...
So Say We All!
I love the way this series made Galactica into a historical relic of an older time, right from the very first episode. And it's so fitting that they turned it from a mothballed, old museum piece back into an operational battlestar... to serve as the key to the single most important mission in human history.
That "GAIUS BALTAR!?" might be my single favorite line delivery in the show. I felt that in my bones.
SO many times in this show his name is said in such a tone that it is almost like a curse word, it's great. Says everything without needing anything else.
Gaius Frakkin Baltar.
@@Ninjaman001 Mostly from Tigh: "Guias Frakking Baltar!" LOL!
@@darthrodenwith the amount of ladies he’s been with on the show Gaius Frakking Baltar might be his full title
@@dekulruno LOL true. Lucky bitch got to bang Trisha and Lucy Lawless, not to mention Starbuck.
That scene when Kara slaps Gaius is probably one of my favourite scene of her. She was really vulnerable and genuine there. She don't slap people, she punches them but there she was really in a situation she wasn't used to. Even though Gaius have seen her without clothes, for the first time ever she was really naked. Love that scene.
Here's a head-scratcher for you. The prophecy says a dying leader will lead them to Earth, but who is the leader? The humans have a dying leader (Laura), the Cyclons have a dying leader (Sam), and the ships have a dying leader (Galactica).
100% its Galactica
I totally agree with you about Grace making you believe that every iteration of 8 that she plays is a different person. I know that you get many recommendations for shows. But if you want to see one actress playing many versions of herself. I recommend "Orphan Black".
I came on here to suggest the same thing, I think she'd fall in love with Tatiana and the show. She puts on a master class! ❤
That show is like her CV.. Her acting is off the scale and its why I kept watching, after the main storyline got abit lame.
@@colinloves I felt season 3 was the weakest of the five , but the show finished well. ..also bonus Michelle Forbes..
She has seen Orphan Black already. When it aired years ago. Great show for sure though
Being a navy vet this episode hits me hard in regards to adama and the Galactica. They did such a awesome job showing the military emotional connection that some soldiers go through being life long career soldiers
Same feeling I got when I saw USS Saratoga decommissioned, then towed to her final resting place to be broken up for scrap. She was my first ship.
As far as I know, this is the only television series that portrayed the military the proper way.
Even down to the communications like this “ this is Galactica actual’
The ship is the only one that the bridge, CC is in the middle of the ship where it should be not in front where it is the most vulnerable
I am also a veteran of the Navy my ship, the USS Samuel Elliott Morrison was decommissioned and sold
I believe to turkey
Personally I would’ve rather seen her turn into razor blades
I watched a documentary on the USS enterprise had 20 battle stars the most ship has had
And they were actual plans to turn it to a museum, but the crew protested according one of the veterans “ Men died on the ship I don’t wanna see kids running around with sticky fingers touching the machine guns that men use I’m happy she was scrapped. “
The Galactica was a perfect representation of an aircraft carrier in space
@@TECHMAN132 - I like to think the Navy similarity is due to Moore, specifically, as he was (sort of) a Navy vet. In the pilot, there's another parallel over the 1MC to the announcement of, "There are men working aloft..." - Gaeta can be heard saying, "There are men EVA. Do not radiate or energize electronic equipment while men are EVA" It's the little things like that where it strikes the inner Vet with a smile. I completely agree with you on the portrayal.
I would have also loved to have heard, "Galactica, arriving", or, "Pegasus, arriving"...but, can't have it all, I guess. lol
@@TECHMAN132
Stargate did have a military advisor for the later seasons.
Air Farce, but still. We get SG-1-Niner and SG-3-Sierra
Grace Park. Grace Park. Grace Park. Also? Grace Park. In conclusion, Grace Park. Just... wow.
Galactica is very much like HMS Warspite. She earned 15 battle honours (the most decorated ship in the Royal Navy), including Jutland, Narvik, Matapan, Crete, Salerno and Normandy. She wore out her guns shelling Normandy, took a direct hit from a Fritz X, was bombed in Crete and later hit a mine but flat-out refused to die (this is in addition to the 150+ hits she took at Jutland). When they tried to scrap her, she broke free of the tow lines, damaging two tugs and grounding a salvage ship.
She was a fighter from the moment she launched from the slipway to the moment she ran aground in defiance.
@@richardtaylor1652ran aground next to a pub... it may have been in need of a final drink
Sounds like one Drachinifel, or even Fat Electrician, need to do an episode on.
@@c1ph3rpunk Drach already has.
Omggggggggg I can't wait to see your reaction to the entire finale!!!!!
OMG it's the END, the three part series finale....Can't wait for the uploads and to see your full series breakdown of what i feel is one of the most intriguing television series I have ever watched! ALL WILL BE REVEALED! SO SAY WE ALL!
You know, the Galactica has really gone through a lot of shit: it entered the atmosphere twice, was upgraded twice, participated in long-distance races, survived a nuclear strike, served 16 years of war (12 years of the First War and 4 years of the Second War), Participated in the largest battles (Marathon, Caprica, Ghost Fleet, New Caprica) and existed for 56 years old. The fact that the Galactica is dying now is a blessing from the Gods/God.
Galactica has always seemed to me like another participant in this journey and seeing her die is also very painful, but I think it's time for her to rest. However, we will finish one last case.
Know funnylilgalreacts, it was an honor for me that you were part of this Colonial Fleet and that we all came a long way together, because we are already at the end of this path.
The scene where the Six saved the others from the hull breach is just another reminder that the Cylons are as much a part of humanity as the natural born humans, capable of both the worst and the best in all of us. Its a message that I'm glad to be reminded of again and again.
It's amusing in a way, if you like, but I still would never forgive what was done. It could not be forgiven. Great show, but that point always sticks out.
I don’t know about you, but I could stand to forget just for a day the worst of us, human or Cylon.
@@davidmcleod5133 So say we all.
What Babylon 5. Lots of really cool space battles and some truly amazing character arcs, writing and acting. G'Kar and Londo are just an absolute joy to watch.
I second this Babylon 5 might have its bad episodes but at its best BSG struggles to match it.
Ten Years Ago: I have a "crazy night" it involves passports and international intrigue
Now: I have a "crazy night" it involves Admiral Adama making me emotional, again.
Grand Ol' Lady indeed.
The show did a beautiful job in treating Galactica with the same care as any other character whose story is ending. She has other characters quietly (or loudly) saying their farewells, we see her crew mourning in various ways, and Bear did wonderful things with her musical motif that allows the sadness to colour the scenes.
Gorgeous. Thanks Angela. Thanks Xander.
I didn't remember Galactica being so broken like that.
when I watched this, I feel like I soared through season 1 to 3, and then the last 10 episodes of s4 made me age 5 years.
I had forgotten how heavy the last episodes hit. It's a heavy show all the way through, but it improbably keeps finding a more somber, grittier, purer gear.
Here's a scientific theory/ explanation. Another show semi-recently posited that a broadcast was transmitted through Cosmic Background Radiation... maybe in the BSGverse, the cosmic background radiation is in the form of "All Along the Watchtower." Leoben at one point talks about the universe ringing with an unstuck melody that few can hear, Kara being one of the few. Music has been described as being able to 'flow' over oneself, as a stream does. Hell, we STREAM music now. The stream is the music, which carries knowledge and prophecy, echoing through a timeless story told over and over. The Galactica is an island in this stream of cosmic background radiation - of stars. Kara flew into a maelstrom, a storm, and let the current of the stream carry her away. The energy that was her was set adrift from her body, but reconstituted, and her she is, able to feel the pull of Earth, carried on her new Viper's instrument through a song. Still pretty airy-fairy ethereal, but perhaps a bit more grounded than the show was willing to spell out.
Watching someone see and experience something we loved for the first time is almost like us seeing it again for the first time, but through someone elses eyes. Happy to have been sharing this journey with you. Killjoys is a good little show for a later date, some seriousness but a little tongue-in-cheek too. Had a lot of fun watching that one
Oh believe me, I also cried knowing that Galactica is dying. Its weird to be attached to a spaceship, but remember that ship was both home and defender for these people for years. Its easy to feel the pain of loss here.
She’s the dying leader
In many series, "The Ship" (and/or sometimes "The Station") is the +1 character. I mean, Serenity, pick an Enterprise, the Roci, the Falcon- the ship itself is more than a means of conveyance, its a home and a personage in its own right.
@@Sephiroth144 I can't wait until she meets Moya
@@funnylilgalreacts Now you just have to figure out the Opera House thing. I look forward to seeing your upcoming reactions, and I know tears will be shed. (hugs sent)
@@Sephiroth144 Exactly so.
The strobe lighting lines up with Sam's blinking aswell. Almos is a good director that's for sure.
Helo is one of the GOATs of BSG...I've said it from the get decades ago with the mini series (to the few BSG peeps I knew at the time) and probably will believe it forever!
Tahmoh Penikett...you are a chef's kiss😘 of an actor and all around nice human being.💚
the most amazing thing is that he was originally supposed to be just a one-off character in the miniseries. And like many original one-off characters in Deep Space Nine (another Ronald D. Moore show), they were such a joy to work with that a larger expanded role was written for them, and they became the greatest thing of their show. Helo definitely deserves to be alongside names like Garak and Nog
@@k1productions87
Kinda like Felicity Smoak. She was also not supposed to return.
If someone had abducted my daughter, no one could stop me from going to find her. Helo has more self control than I do. The scene of Tigh and Adama in his quarters is one of my favourite in the whole series. I really want a print of that painting behind his couch in my office. It's called "The First Cylon War" and it's pretty rad.
But per the usual, the Admiral makes a firm decision, but that thought lingers in his mind long enough to make him do the right thing. He knows Helo’s right
Such a beautiful scene. It's so much fun to watch when people meet Tigh in the first few episodes and they instantly dislike that rude drunk. And I'm just sitting there smiling knowing where they will enf up. Saul Tigh have always been my favourite character in this show. So similar to Amos in the Expanse. I mean they're very different characters but at the beginning you think they're really one dimensional but by the end you realize how complex the writing was behind that character and what a phenomenal job the actor did to portray him.
28:42 love that she did put her picture next to Kat
I like that "All Along the Watchtower" is the song of the Universe.
Step Back and see, Gaius is not responsible at all. This "cleansing" was fated. It's all happened before..
By now All along... must be the Science Fiction's anthem for the entire genre.
It was clearly stated in Chuck season 2, the title of "song of the universe" belong to "Tom Sawyer" from Rush. :D
@@vincentvoillot6365yeah, BSG and Watchmen trump Chuck.
@@vincentvoillot6365lol
@@gawainethefirstNothing trumps Chuck, ya heathen!
Leoben back in Season 1: "I see patterns, I'm in the stream..."
If it makes you feel any better, angel means messenger, from the Greek angelos, to send.
Biblically, people were freaked out when angels appeared. The angel's first words are always: do not be afraid.
Yeah, that might be because the angels in bible look like something straight out of DMT nightmare trip. I'd sure be scared if one appeared in front of me. 😂
@@lazaruslong697 hence the do not be afraid
@@lazaruslong697 Tell me you got your knowledge from memes only, without telling me you got your knowledge from memes only. Abraham welcomed three angels to his tent and gave them food and drink, because he thought they were plain men traveling.
@@AdamMPick Sorry, if my shallow understanding offended you. I sometimes do dabble in fictional literature, but i do admit my knowledge of bible is lacking. My tolerance to mind-control attempts and various sects trying to scare, or entice me into submission was always juuust a a little bit low. 😂
There's another interpretation to some of the Angelic stuff . The classic movie "It's a Wonderful Life" starts with the camera pointed up to the stars, and Angels just chitchatting . Quite a bit of the Metaphysical beings in this show also just spent time ... chitchatting . Not every second was about The Message .
The good thing is you dont have to say goodbye to the show, thats why I'm here watching you watch it. And through you, rewatching it as if for the first time again. So thank you for doing that! :)
Same here. Ive been temped to watch my boxset and enjoy those uncut eps. But the 'whole waiting for the next ep' experience, I get here, is more enjoyable.
I remember having a full breakdown after that "Lock it!!!! LOCK IT!!" sudden KO when I first watched. As I always say, this show basically rolls up, throws "what does it mean to be 'human'?" on the board, and rolls 40 minutes of content for us to chew over. This season is rocky bc of the writer's strike + the push to wrap up the series, but I do think the EPs made Decent Choices that feel authentic if a bit sudden in order to give us a HELL of a final 20 minutes. Some ppl bemoan season 4 and the "annnnd SCENE!!" of it all, but the series is truly CompleteTM and the finale makes the whole ride so worthwhile.
Athena... The Murder hobo of Battlestar Galactica!
To Galactica: The final Battlestar 🥃
Thank you for releasing the remaining ones everyday till the series finished. Been on this journey with you since the first one. Loved watching every single reaction to each episode. It's been one emotional ride. ❤
Not only is losing Galactica emotional, but it leaves the fleet critically undefended. The Basestar came because it knew it couldn't protect itself against Cavil's forces.
I love this episode. It has one of my favourite titles of any pieces of television ever. Then it gets better from there.
To Galactica, always.
I haven't been able to say goodbye to Battlestar Galactica for 15 years 😢
Galactica was always about the cost of survival. Well, these people are putting the survival of their people over Apollo and Adama's tender feelings for the Galactica.
They have been struggling to keep their own ships going through those years without any kind of the repair facilities whatsoever - and those aren't ships meant to operate alone for long stretches of time. Add battle damage, the ocasional riot and whatnot, and most of them must be on the brink of failing - killing the people inside them.
Their captains are doing their duty towards their people, trying to get them the best gear available.
One thing I always had a challenge with, in the series, that our Lilgal is doing phenomenal with, is differentiating emotions & reactions, between the Cylon models, such as the Capricas & the Sharons
"I'd like to have a drink with Helo."
Made me think, if you guys could have a drink with any character on BSG and get to know them and hear their stories who would it be?
There are a lot of good options, but it has to be post-resurrection Ellen. She has 2000 years of stories to tell!
If you want a heart to heart, I'd say Tigh or Adama would be great to have a drink with.
If you want a social drink, I reckon Chief would be good.
If you want a drink and a great night out then no doubt Helo and Athena would be fun to do that with.
If you just want to get shitfaced to the point that you get amnesia then Starbuck for sure.
Island in a stream of stars. I believe that's a reference to a dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers song . ( Islands in a stream) writing by the gibb bros. ( beegees)
Yes Jamie bambers wife ( kerry Norton) she is a singer and does a little acting.
They look good on a red carpet. She looks better eith blood and scrubs 😂
I couldn't find reliable dimensions for the Roci, but the bigger one I found say 134 meters long (aprox. 440ft). Galactica is 1438.64 meters long, that's 4720ft. Just to put things in scale. :P
Oficial size of the Roci is 46m long ... visual logical size (measuring the airlock door vs known actors heigh) is 63.. size of the ship so the bridge set fits inside as we see it plus double hull space is over 80m
Almos is such a great actor.
Geesh.
I'm going to save my comments on the application of god mostly for the finale but I actually think the series handled it well all things considered
As a long time trekkie i prefer science too but to borrow from Harrison Ford, "Hey Kid... It ain't that kind of movie." :D
We all wanna drink with Helo.
I feel a little bad for Michael Trucco who spent the last few episodes of the series sitting in a bathtub spewing nonsense.
Yeah, unfortunately real-world issues were to blame with his serious accident. However, he did give one of the finest acting moments in the series during the finale...and it was also in a bathtub!
I love taking a few bong rips and then watching Angie love space shit lol. I play music for a living and I really appreciated how they incorporated one of my favorite songs into the narrative. I don't think it's a spoiler to say that the final episode has some bangers on it 🤘
I adore watching your reactions, and you are locked in (well, tied) in first place of the 3 score or so reactors I watch. I wish I could do patreon.
Oh and Xander, you are a God among editors.
You're great and I am so glad I found your Expanse video, I think it was season 1 episode 2 when I first saw you on my feed, and have been loyal ever since.
Ps I still want to know the whole story of Xander in the basement with rats.
Galactica will never really be gone as long as the show exists.
I have enjoyed you sharing your journey through it with us.
So say we all.
To Galactica, the best ship in the fleet!
Rewatching this episode though your fresh eyes hurts all over again and just how beautiful this series is for me and how sad it made me feel that we are this close to the end, every scene is precious in this episode and every moment so well thought out and place to b ring us to the 3 part finally, this has been a great journey to revisit through fresh eyes Thank you once again. By now im guessing you have finished watching watching the show and are just now waiting for them to drop here. but as you probably have seen this show is everything. I look forward to your thoughts on the last 3 episodes. some people did not enjoy it as a series finally, but for me it was the most perfect finally ever made for any show, and i look forward to explaining my thoughts why it was that for me as you experience it. thank you once again for the reactions.
Totally agree 100%. It was a perfect ending, especially back whe it aired. As nearly all TV shows didnt get an ending, let alone a good one.
Maybe in 20 years time, Angela with be watching someones else reactions to this show. :)
-What has happened before, will happen again.
Athena has every right to be mad at Tyrol. If he didn't help Boomer escape from her cell, Hera wouldn't have been taken and the Galactica wouldn't have sustain heavy damage during the escape. Adama should execute him for that, but the Cylons and the rest of the Five may have a problem with that.
Yep, he committed several crimes by his own choice, and was an accessory to kidnapping even if he didn't know it. In any court of law, he would be convicted, because "I was manipulated" isn't a Get Out of Jail Free card. Courts expect adults to operate based upon their intellect, not their emotions. He chose to assault an Eight, break Boomer out of her cell, and help her steal a Raptor. Helped her load that crate without checking its contents. And there he is, taking accountability, because he knows that it is his.
The show consistently shows us characters who absolutely know better, but make poor decisions because they allow their emotions to override sense. Everyone on the show has done it at some point, because it's very human.
All this talk of angels. And what forms they take. Suddenly I am curious what Angela would think of Evangelion.
Shirt says Good vibes, and the show made us cry😭🥺🫶
That soundtrack in the background of Bill and Saul raising a cup to Galactica is of my favorites from the show. "Admiral and Commander" by Bear Mccreary
Pretty well the same, but shortened. In the 4th Season soundtrack, it's simply "Grand Old Lady", only something like :30 long. 🙂
When Starbuck is seeing Head Papa in the previous episode she talks about a song that makes her happy and sad at the same time, with her Dad saying "the best ones do". Just love that sequence there... but it also feels like a reference to the show.
Anyway, your reactions to my favorite show have been really awesome... I get super excited to see your videos pop up in my feed, and it will be sad to not have that anymore.
the calm before the storm, cant wait
BSG would not be the show it was if it was Just All Science - especially given its roots. It's not remotely necessary to 'believe' (I don't) - but BSG is a perfect vehicle for letting yourself pretend to believe; just a little. This whole story illustrates that you don't have to be religious to act religiously - and we all do - for better and worse, and we get to see both sides of it over and over here.
You can watch the original series episode War of the Gods. It gives you an idea of the direction of the original series creator.
@@Dularr True, and they even had a character that represented the devil. Religion and faith is part of the shows DNA.
@@DularrHaving seen the original show with the Ship of Lights and what happens with Apollo, I was perhaps *too* prepared for the direction the new BSG took, but I think they found a great balance integrating the broad concepts with a more modern sensibility.
@@BrianKoppe They really could have benefitted from a ship of lights episode. Include all the angels. Ending with Kara starting to forget.
@@Dularr On one hand I disagree and think it's good they didn't spell things out that much. On the other hand... there is still "what was Starbuck?" clickbait to this day, so clearly there are people who would have benefitted from a more explicit explanation! 😂
I'm laughing at you crying but I've seen this many times and still crying.
"Dammit I want science" - same
Just Realize the level of acting we had in this Frakking show !!!
For an episode that was light on plot and heavy on setup for the finale, this one is easily the show’s best.
So say we all.
Angela: "I don't have children, so I don't know the perfect way of handling that situation."
Well if you're a GOOD parent you won't be kidnapping children. So I don't think there's a perfect way to handle comforting a kidnapped child. 😜
Thank you Angela, for showing me an aspect, that I never noticed before: All the women Adama has lost. That was deep and I spent some emotional thought upon it. Maybe, that set the tone for the episode, as I dont remember crying this much, the last time I saw this. I also didnt remember how cute and beaming, Starbuck looked, after Lee spoke to herr
But I do remember getting angry about how Helo never gets any love from Adama. His the same to Chef, but not as bad. Authority dont seem to like Helo :/
The "You look spiffy" moment was just beautiful.
It's funny, when i first saw this show i didn't like the Galactica because her design was so different from the 78 original, but man does she grow on you. She's a fine lady, Queen of the skies.
(I will add however that the Mercury class Pegasus is my favourite capital ship design ever)
Pegasus was 🤌🏼
"she's dying"
Nah, she ain't broke her back
So... Have you seen "The Orville"? Seth McFarlane's love letter to Star Trek.
I’ve seen some episodes but I want to rewatch and react to that series at some point
@@funnylilgalreacts Season 3 of Orville was up there with the best of Next Generation! Sad it's probably just going to have the 3 seasons.
It occurs to me that you might want to react to the Orville. It's a great SF show, and mostly a very lighthearted one. You might want to add to your bucket list.
Well there are 3 amazing series for you to follow up this one with. Fallout, Shogun, The Bear. All 3 are fantastic shows. I think "The Bear" will leave you with a lot of emotional moments, the acting imo is bar none the best I've seen. Shogun comes in a close second there, Fallouts is good too. The production on all three are fantastic, as is the writing.
35:00 spoiler alert: the big twist at the end of the series is that the galactica and everyone on it are actually really really tiny
Same kid from St. Elsewhere?
Hark ! The herold angel sings , glory to the new born king , peace on earth and mercy mild , god and sinners reconciled. When the angelic host ( army) proclaimed chris is born in bethlahem. ( choir flashback ) 😂
DO NOT get between a mother and her child. Especially when that mother is a Cylon. And 100% so, when that Cylon is named, Athena.
To Galactica, last Battlestar standing!
I don’t know what your reaction schedule is like but if you ever get a chance I highly recommend watching the good place it’s an amazing show!
3 episodes before the show ends and you're like "Gaius overstepped his bounds by telling Cara publicly that she's... " . Well of course Gaius frakking Baltar overstepped his bounds .
That's the point (one of the points) of this show . These are imperfect people .
It's not the perfect Admiral, or President, or Dr. Horrible, or Chief, or XO , and on and on . This is why we can love them one second and hate them the next .
This show has broken the mold of "the perfect crew" .
And this is why Lee should have been court martialed for throwing away the Pegasus
Just recommending 3 body on netflix for a future series! I loved it as a book reader.
I'd love to see you react to the "Caprica" prequel show. They canceled it right when it was finding it's stride 😢
Agree on Caprica
Disagree on Caprica
Wonderful show
30:35 "To Galactica !"
You can watch the original series War of the Gods. It does give you the original series creator story elements.
30:40 ...notice the painting behind them in adama's quarters...Cylons & humans fighting with swords...
Baltar asked Adam if it's a real (somebody in the season one) Its the first Cylon War.
After the show finished you could by copy's (R D More has the original at home.) of it from the sci-fi shop as it was then. I don't think you still can. I can you find them around for sale. I have one on. They are not as big as the original.:-(
You know, a lot of folks say, not without merit, this 4th season is the weakest in the show. But hot damn, every episode at this point feels emotionally like being dragged across a field of broken glass. If you're a tragedy junkie like me, it's still gold.
I think season 4 gave us what we needed, rather than what we wanted. The season gets better the more it is revisited.
39:08 Head 6 and Head Gaius will be explained before the end.
Yea the Galactica is 4,719 feet long and the Rocinante is 152 feet "long".
I'd say that if you fall in love with the ships in shows, if you have not watched Farscape, that is definitely a show for you.
Moya is 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
always loved the shot of Hera with the toy Galactica, showing how she's got the fate of humans and cylons in her hands.
The captain advocating for a lottery on the parts of Galactica? I just noticed that she was the president of the juri on Baltar's trial.
Second juror is also on the Quorum. He is the one that mentions... GAIUS BALTAR?!
If you haven't seen it I recommend you watch the tv show Eureka for more great James Callis acting.
I watched this series as originally aired.
Bought the Blu-ray special edition that came with a cylon centurion with it, that was $200 at the time
I watch you watch this and your emotion to it makes the series that much more special
I have a question do you consider this one of the television series of all time?
And now it’s time to dust off that big and watch Battlestar Galactica again from the beginning!
Thank you😭
Glen Larson, the creator of the original BSG, was a Mormon and made BSG as an allegory for Mormonism. So religion was kind of baked into the series.
Re: the religion/metaphysics thing -
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"
Exactly. That's what people who are "trashing" the ending get so wrong.
So many fall into the same intellectual pit of what many characters in the show do.
Angela will get it though, I'm pretty sure.
The mark of true genius is making the incredible seam everyday.
@@gregsomlai297Yeah I'm very interested to see her reaction to the finale! It may not give her all the answers she wants but I think she has the open mind necessary to appreciate all the answers she gets.
Yep; just look at the Q Continuum from Star Trek, the future humans from Interstellar, or even the Observers from Fringe. It can all be techology based without requiring the supernatural
In this context I also like to refer to the 'head characters' used as messenger in 'Contact' or 'Childhood's End'.
With BSG ending this week, I truly hope that you're moving on to Caprica and/or the OG BSG next. Like you, I need my space shit.
Farscape!
@@funnylilgalreacts 3 Body Problem? Don't read anything, go in blind..

I know how it feels to lose the Galactica but battle is what she was made for
To answer your question:
NO...I'm never ready to say goodbye to Battlestar Galactica!😢💚
I’m still not ok
@@funnylilgalreacts Amiga...I haven't been 'okay' with BSG ending for decades...the bittersweet love for the show will last a lifetime but the burn of it ending never quite heals!
😥😊💚
10:56 I wasn't anywhere near the fandom when the show aired, but from what I've heard, that's exactly why people hated him.
Angela, are you actually not familiar with the song All Along the Watchtower? It's a must listen. The original was done by Bob Dylan in '67; it was then covered by Jimi Hendrix the following year. Here are some convenient links to the better versions.

I want to see you react to "Lucifer". You will love Tom Ellis in it.
Counterpoint: Don't. That show was running on duct tape and prayers. There was never a moment when it wasn't on the verge of cancellation. I've seen the entirety of it, and I found it one of my most miserable experiences to endure because of my refusal to quit a show that manages to barely hit the checkmarks. Even Supernatural manages to be better, and it's low effort at least 1/3 of it's runtime. Lucifer is like a parody of a charismatic character. The show was more predicable than any I've watched, and it's not ground I'll retread, period.
Their's nothing wrong with a little mystery.
You heard right.
