The shows been out for years, so I don't think we need spoilers... personally I think it was at the exact point of the Final Five reveal, were half the FF didn't make any goddamn sense and you could tell that Billy was supposed to be one of them (which would have been awesome and consistent with the Cylon m.o.) but the actor bitched out.

It was the last few episodes. I could stick with it until then, where it suddenly and violently feels like an afterthought to an afterthought. I mean the finale which is like a 3 parter on netflix. That thing is bad.

Would been better as a 12 or 13 episode per season kinda deal, but they just couldn't make that poo poo work for 4 seasons at 20 episodes a piece.

I like the show and am okay with the way things turned out but a small part of me felt it going off the rails way back when they were fighting over the temple and the supernova was going to happen.

Those episodes felt like some Stargate bullshit.

after the pilot and the next two episodes when they ran out of money for space fights. The episodes with all the clones on the ice planet was the real turning point.

I wish they didn't have the supernatural or religious aspect of it. I wish it was focused more on killing cylons instead of finding earth.

The guys from Lost saw it and thought it looked cool and tried their own version. They were obviously wrong.

the religious stuff was fine and i'm discovering that the people who have the biggest problem with that are people who get super spergy mad when anything doesn't take their Godless and heathen worldview as the defacto truth. Like all this space ship stupid poo poo, FTL drives, nearly undetectable cylon human models that can get pregnant- that's okay, but God? Step too loving far, immersion breaking. Why can't everything be explicitly atheist like Star Trek: TNG?

In retrospect the episode where Helo killed all of the prisoner Cylons rather than let the entire Cylon race be wiped out was pretty Star Trek...

Helo was a solid character that should have died if the series hadn't gone to poo poo. I mean I really liked his character, but he was a dope that should have died.

Professor Shark

The coolest part about the religion thing and God (assuming he's out Yehwah/ Allah/ God) is that out of all the other Greek-ish god's he was "The Jealous God".

Plus all of the characters we watched simply being some previous species' version of Cylons.

They went wrong when they didn't have a definitive timeline (or storyline, for that matter) and had to make lovely filler episodes.

Honestly when they built the loving bar and spent a season and a half of apollo staring at starbuck crying like a bitch.

Past that, the episode when they had all the sixes painting the galactica with magical paint. The entire last season shouldn't have happened, and it's clear they were just making poo poo up at that point to get to the finale disappointing conclusion.

That said the first half of the series finale loving ruled.
