Battlestar Galactica: A Fatal Beginning

For anyone who cares and is paying attention, this is the last few episodes of Sci-Fi’s Battlestar Galactica series. The original story has been raped so badly that it’s almost unrecognizable so perhaps it is fitting to just stop making any more episodes.

I’m not saying that this series has been bad. It really has been a wild ride. It’s like you started riding the ferris wheel and end up getting off of the tilta whirl.

It wasn’t what you expected. It wasn’t bad. It just wasn’t the bill of goods you were expecting. The original Battlestar Galactica storyline was amazingly simple and I suppose that’s why it worked so well. This version seems like something that they created just because they got the money and could. I think Richard Hatch should have been given the chance. I’m just saying.

The first episode of the last half of the season for Battlestar Galactica has claimed it’s first victim.

An estranged husband and wife decide to go out together and share stories and a drink or two. They kiss each other goodnight and the wife appears as though she’s floating on air with a big smile on her face.

She stands at her locker while removing her jewelry and then…

…shoots herself in the head.

Goodbye Dee.

Starbuck has to be a Cylon. She can’t be but she has to be?

Tigh’s dead wife is the 5th? Yeah. Sure. Whatever.
