Pretty much!

*giggles*

Hah. Yes.

I loved it! Well not allll of it, but I was expecting sooo much more angst and many more people dead. So ultimately, I'm happy.

*Random unexpected squishes* ♥

Also, that icon is oddly adorable! I'm sure I haven't seen it before.

What you said.

I cried quite a bit, but overall I was satisfied.

And I keep having dreams involving 'All Along the Watchtower' as background music.

Oh, it's easily explained:

GOD DID IT.

There!

LOL.

It's not the most original catch-all, I admit, but I've seen worse.

good-then can someone explain it to Me?
what was Kara-an angel? child of the missing Cylon Daniel?
Confused the hell out of me.

I went and wrote this huge, long thesis on all the things that confused and confounded me and you went and said it better in one word.

I'm never trusting Ron Moore again...

After reading the majority of the reaction on my flist, I am suddenly happier than ever before that I never watched this show. That's all.

Kara is an angel/Christ figure. She really died, and was really resurrected to complete her special destiny.

Ron Moore admitted in a recent podcast that Daniel was NEVER intended to grab so many people, and start so many theories. Daniel was simply a way to fill the numbers gap in the cylons, and to give an example of Caval's jealousy/cruelty/etc. He did sound fairly apologetic about it.

I loved it. But then I guess I always expected god/angels to be playing a pretty big role. Since ChipSix had done so much that was unexplainable - physically moving Gaius, repeatedly predicting future events - I figured she either had to be an angel, or a devil. And I'm happier with angel.

When we got that first shot of the moon the teariness turned into sobbing! Mucho embarrasing! Lol. Good thing I was alone.

And I keep having dreams involving 'All Along the Watchtower' as background music.

That is worlds of awesome. It's such a great song, Bear arrangement kicks Hendrix's ass!

Yeah! I watched the last 5 minutes of the finale on youtube and then I went back and watched the bit where Starbuck plays it at the piano with... the 'ghost' of her father (?) and it gave me goosebumps!

It was the bits with Roslin and Adama that really made me bawl, though. If it had ended with him at her grave I would have really been a mess... I'm glad we got that little coda at the end with the Baltar and Six 'angels'.

Even though the rough patches on BSG, I agree, the music has always been awesome.

That's interesting, because there have been many times over the course of the show where I've gone "Damn, I wish I never started watching this show". But this finale made me happy that I stuck with it.

But sometimes when you're a writer the best ideas start out as accidents :D

Well, I phrased it wrongly, I guess. I didn't never watch it. I watched the first two and a half seasons? I think that's all it was. Up to whenever they left New Caprica. And I progressively fell more and more out of love with the show and the characters, and after reading a lot about the finale, for me, I'm fairly certain I wouldn't have been all that pleased.

But I'm glad not EVERYONE was disappointed, because I was beginning to think they were.

That was a rough patch for me, too. But it's worth remembering that, iirc, S3 is when SciFi started interfering with the show.

I wasn't disappointed at all. Sad, very sad at some parts, but not disappointed.

Agreed.

Yeah. I wonder, if it hadn't been the last season, and if the rest of the episodes hadn't been finished and in the can, if he would have done something with it.

I read his comments as he had no idea people would grab onto this idea so hard. And he was warning us not to expect anything to come of it in the finale. At that point, there was nothing he could do. And since they generally avoid spoilers like whoa, the fact he was telling us outright this will not happen, speaks to how apologetic he was about it.

So I wonder if this had happened, say in the third season, and they had seen the massive fan reaction, if they might have considered exploring Daniel more on the show.

I mourn for the Chief. He deserved a better end than that.

Jumping in to say me too. It was one of the best finales I have seen in recent TV history. I didn't like every single thing, but I was extremely satisfied with the ending.

*nods*

There's a Daniel in the new Caprica series... that has people wondering.

But when Starbuck got that record/CD of her dad's, didn't it say Daniel on it?

I did feel bad for him. Going off to be all alone. Though, I loved his line to Tori about "you got something better to do) and then he finally got rid of her for me. But, I wanted him to have some type of happiness in the end--he deserved just a little of that.

This is what I am saying.

I picture him all alone on the side of a mountain somewhere with nothing to tinker with and no one to talk to and that makes me sad. :(

I'm still doing this: O_o

I could have sworn the show started preaching about iDogs, but I must have been feverish.

*boggles*

I really did expect more people to die as well.

:D I've had it for a long time. I think I even had it as a default for a while.

But, of course, it doesn't like to be called that.

I guess Kara was an "angel." Which really made no sense to me since the Giaus and Six "angels" were never able to physically interact with their surroundings.

If there's going to be this much crack, random characters really should start glowing and floating.

HEH!!

She physically moved Gaius? I guess I didn't remember that.

Poor Chief. It kinda sucks that only 2 of the 5 got a bit of happiness in the end.

You'll never stop!

I clearly need more sleep, because at first glance, I read that one word as "bagels" ...
