That that plot doesn’t sit well with your or my political philosophies might deserve a secondary critique, but it kind of lets the writers off the hook for the fact that they lead viewers to believe that they were watching hard science fiction for 74 episodes and then suddenly hit us with an episode of _Stargate: SG1_. And the showrunner had the nerve to claim that he was inspired by the _Sopranos_ finale! But as with the end of all relationships that were not what they seemed to be, I should just let it go… To anyone who hasn’t seen an episode of _BSG_ but is interested, in my opinion it is one of the best TV shows ever made through episode four of season three, but in retrospect looses its way quickly thereafter.
