This 4 season is the biggest delusion of my life (as a TV watcher of course.)

I totally agree with MonoApe Ape. I loved the ship designs and technology elements in the series, and some philosophical references, but machines having FAITH !?! that is far from SCI-FI machines built to compute and rely on reference logic can never have such pointless faith and stuff. And whats up with all that god mumbo-jumbo. There were too many cliches and the uniforms the space marines are wearing are too much alike SWAT teams, the weapons they used are also not compatible with the general texture of the series. I MEAN come on if you are making a sci-fi and if its about a people that has nothing to do with us humans PLEASE give some time to design OIRIGINAL uniforms etc at least ! These are very crucial in a sci-fi, the watcher must lose contact with todays human society in order to enter into the atmosphere of what they are watching. In general I couldnt connect to the whole battlestar galactica concept I general found myself bored (except for the first season) watching. This series is a light sci-fi movie directed at general crowd who doesnt pay attention to detail and has little idea about sci-fi and philosophy. Big disappointment for me in general. Look at the real sci-fi works such as star wars and ghost in the shell, that is how sci-fi is made. IMAGINE DEEP. (cylons with ak-47's and 15000 yrs ago yeah right) - its like scientology.

Easily the best SciFi drama ever. Atleast the best TV SciFi drama. I hated the original so much I didn't watch the first season. I was surprised to see so much religious emphasis in a Sci-Fi show but in retrospect it all seems plausible.

I'm so bummed. I LOVED this show. But in my opinion it jumped the shark long ago. In fact it's now more like a soap opera than a sci-fi show. I think it all happened when Starbuck came back to life, and Apollo turned in his wings. The majority of the episodes after that were shaky. Some like chinese water torture. Too bad. It was a great show.

BSG is undoubtedly one of best shows in a long time, and the 1st season kicked some serious butt. However, I feel the show, at times, lacks focus. There seems to be this endless babbling of incoherent emotion...it has become more like a soap opera staged in space than a Sci Fi adventrue. The main theme of the show seems to be that of depression and it has certainly become depressing to watch. I give it an 8 because the first season was that good and a part of me keeps hoping that the writers will come to their senses and deliver back to us a once brilliant show.

Aaron S gave it an8:
A great concept. A good, but uneven start. Based on Whedon's track-record it's well worth giving it his usual period to mature.

Michael L gave it a10:
The best Frakkin show on TV! Possibly my favorite drama of all time and there's a ton I love over the years.

Adrian S. gave it a9:
While I'd love to give this show a 10 for its depth, epic scope, and poignant study of human civilization through the microcosm of the fleet, there have been episodes that drag, and the soap opera quality of some of the relationships got tedious (especially in season 3). That being said, there are so many highs in the series that completely erase any memories of the not-so-spectacular episodes. Battlestar Galactica excels in merging ideologies with action, which are executed with brilliant detail in the form of tense diplomacy, space battles, enemy occupation, and rebellions. These episodes catapult the quality and depth of the series far beyond what I've ever seen in science fiction, and I commend the series for its stellar approach and its constant reckoning of the human spirit.

This show is one of the best on TV. It seems the last 10 episodes will continue to an explosive climax and conclusion. A previous user said the finale was rushed with many unanswered questions. Well.. the series is not over yet. I'm not sure what he is talking about.

greg w. gave it a10:
I love this show, and was hooked from the first episode.

Sami H. gave it a4:
Im sorry, I dont understand all these glowing results on this Season. The Final last episodes were very rushed, poorly acted and the whole TV Series concluded in a hurry with loads of loose ends and unanswered questions. There should have been another episode following on from the final. It was rushed and lost its charm that made it so special in season 1, 2 & 3.

Eric gave it a10:
Easily the best show on television. The writing, the production, the characters, the acting ensemble are all top-notch. Much as sci-fi is the heart of the show, Battlestar continues to transcend the genre, entertaining us while inspiring our imagination.

André B. gave it a10:
This season has been good in so many levels... Many of the mysteries are discovered. Now it's about the characters... If there's one problem with this season so far, it's the fact that too much is happening too quickly.

Brandon S. gave it a10:
Best show on television. No other show even comes close. It breaks my heart that the second half of this season won't air until 2009. Absolutely amazing show. Even my non-sci-fi-loving wife can't get enough of BSG. Truly great.

Matt S gave it a10:
BSG continues to surprise me and while I certain episodes this season have been more memorable than others, I eagerly await it each week.

m m gave it a5:
Subpar to date - I'm considering the heretofore unthinkable, stopping watching. I consider seasons 1 and 2 to be great Tv, 3 started the slide, now we are here.

Kosh K. gave it a7:
Much more slowly paced than seasons one to three, the opening chapters of Battlestar Galactica season four focus on people and faith. Perhaps something of a disappointment to those who've enjoyed the fast pace, military sci-fi and biting political drama of earlier seasons.

Nevin gave it a10:
The most topical and mature drama on TV. It doesn't get any better than this. So Say We All!

Paul C gave it a10:
One of the best shows on television right now period. So say we all!

Devin W. gave it a10:
GREAT!!! This is easily the best show on tv! It's like reading one of the science fiction classics! And don't complain about it not making sense because you haven't seen the other ones, this isn't a sitcom.

Mike W. gave it a6:
S4 Ep 1 was a passable prologue. Very little happened, and the characters continued in largely the same fashion they did in S3. I enjoyed it, but I'm looking forward to some changes coming soon.

Joe T. gave it a6:
If the premiere is anything to go by, the show has nothing new left to say. I truly hope it builds some momentum with the upcoming episodes, and that this is some hangover from the inert (and at times, 'roll-your-eyes' unwatchable) previous season.

Chris C. gave it a10:
Even when Battlestar Galactica is a little disappointing, it's still far and away the best show on television. Any complaints I'd have would just be nitpicks.

Judy T. gave it a5:
The fourth season premiere said absolutely nothing. I'm really weary of Baltar, Starbuck and Lee.

Ed F. gave it a10:
Great drama! The dense plot remains smart and achingly human. A shame it has to end.

Jason P. gave it a10:
So very good.

John H. gave it a9:
The only reason it gets a 9 and not a full 10 is that I'm wary of the all-female religious cult that Baltar has been adopted by...hmmm, no one would EVER notice him being smuggled away in that bright orange blanket. Otherwise, BSG is as amazing and intelligent as ever.

Pete D. gave it a10:
This show continues to raise the bar, not only for the sci-fi genre, but television as a whole.
