The end of the Battlestar Galactica TV series just finished, and it is a satisfying end to the most impressive piece of film SciFi (distinct from syfy, you audience-alienating douchebags) in years. I put it on footing with Babylon 5 and Firefly, my other two favorite SciFi TV series. Not going to spoil here, I usually torrent and watch later myself, and respect those who chose to. The thing that puts it above the rest isn’t so much the premise or plot (although both are good), it’s that the acting and writing and scoring (especially the scoring) is spectacular.
It’s basically beyond ruin at this point, even if The Plan (movie, tells parts of the story from the cylon’s perspective) and Caprica (TV series, tells the story of the creation of the cylons), the remaining two planned bits of the franchise are crap, it will still have been a great run, making it one of those rare TV series that is good as (far) more than background noise.

When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movements become headlong – faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thoughts of obstacles and forget the precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it’s to late.
