…and will happen again.” Does he mean that Battlestar Galactica will be like a lot of other TV shows and movies before it and fail to live up to it’s potential and go out with a whimper?
I think so.
I hate to say it, but Battlestar Galactica has officially tanked in Season 4. I no longer even DVR it, which is a huge step for me, because damn, that was my favorite show (even surpassing Lost for a moment or two). Season 2 and 3 still have some of the best moments of television ever produced, but taken as a whole, what made the show so good seemed to have been forgotten between season three and four.
Some internet comments:
Wow… There is absolutely NOTHING redeeming about season 4. It’s almost as if the writers are trying to poison the series. Seasons 1 2 & 3 all had episodes that were just amazing. This season is like watching C-Span only based in space.
i completely agree that this season sucks. i was looking for others who felt the same way i did and it turns out im not alone. i have the latest episode downloaded since 3 days ago and still haven’t watched it because it just doesn’t entertain me anymore. the only reason i do watch is because i want a conclusion. Season 1 was phenominal, season 2 had really good subplots. Season 3 it started to go downhill with too many ‘filler’ episodes in my opinion that were just a way of meeting contract requirements of so-and-so many episodes per season, bla bla bla. besides a few good ones, season 3 was only ‘ok’ in my book. now we have season 4, and for the life of me it feels like the whole season so far has taken place in only of about 10 backdrops total. did the rest burn up in some hollywood fire? are all the props burnt to a crisp so now we have to be stuck in the same 10 places? also it feels like the cast has shrunk dramatically. i think the budget for this last season dropped a whole lot and now we’re seeing the results. good thing this is the last season, i hope it ends on a good note.
Aye its just pish even the acting has gone downhill its like they’ve all gone to overacting school and qualified with distinction. Feel like I wasting 45 minutes of my life by watching it.
I’m up to episode 5 in Season 4 of Battlestar Galactica, and it’s boring as fuck. The story isn’t moving at all. Nothing is happening. We are being shovelled episode after episode of time-wasting dialogue. They keep on introducing shitty new subplots without resolving/furthering earlier ones.
I fucking hate what’s become of this once-great show. The only reason I keep watching is because I want a conclusion so I can finally quit forever.
I don’t give a flying fuck about most of the shit that goes on in the show this season. They’re just not putting any effort into the episodes anymore.
Coming into the fourth and final season of Battlestar Galactica, I had high hopes. The sublime season finale, and standard of the season which preceded it offered a great deal of excitement and promise for the final year. However, five weeks in, and I can’t help but feel a little disappointed.
I still feel some kind of loyalty to the show, and someday soon I hope to go online and watch the last few episodes that I skipped, but honestly the drive to do so is just no longer there. I honestly no longer care if they reach Earth, or even who the final Cylon is, because I feel like after the abysmal failure of the first five or so episodes, nothing can redeem it. Which is a shame.
