Itโs not only the greatest sci-fi series of all time, itโs the greatest SERIES of all time, and even holds up today.
The acting and character development and arcs are first class, the twists and turns of the story are brilliant, and itโs constant edge-of-your-seat stuff.
At times itโs a tear-jerker, at times itโs political and religious, and it will have you constantly torn between morality and ethics while hating, loving, and then hating again the same characters over and over.
Youโll cheer on the humans and hate the cylons, but then find yourself swapping those positions for both and back again ten times over. Itโs a hell of an emotional ride.
Itโs exciting, thrilling, high tech, and honest, and if the ending doesnโt blow your mind, nothing will - actually, youโll have your mind blown a few times every season.
Seriously, just watch it. You wonโt be disappointed. My only gripe is that I wish theyโd remaster it.
Lastly, donโt start at S01E01. There is a must-watch, 2-hour pilot episode first.
