It's a series so good, you won't believe you are enjoying a series called "Battlestar Galactica". It's one of the best TV series ever made.

I deliberately never watched it when it was on air because I thought it was one of those shows for geeks. It's now my favorite show ever. Maybe my favorite thing to watch ever.

I almost feel like this is a joke/troll thread.

BSG is BELOVED around here. I've heard almost literally nothing but good things...seriously, I don't recall ever hearing something bad about it. I may start on it after I finish up The Wire (Carnivale is also in the running).

Probably not the best way to start a thought...

I have never read anything negative about the overall series. Most people love it. It takes some odd twists and some people (myself included) did not like the finale, but it is well worth the ride.

MAKE SURE - that you watch the mini-series first. I think on Netflix the series starts with the mini-series but I can't remember.

Great series. I liked the first part of the series better than the last.

I loved, loved the original one when I was a little kid. The original Cylons were bad arse.

Haven't watched the new one.

I can't express in words how good BSG is as a TV show. One of the best ever made.

Everything that has been said, from being sci-fi remake titled Battlestar Galactica, wife hating sci-fi but loving BSG, frack is annoying but grows on you, musical score that prevails throughout the show - you will never listen to All Along the Watchtower the same way again, politics, drama, sex, characters that change but hold true, characters that want to stay true but change, the ending...

What people call "good TV shows" barely hold a candle to BSG.
