How old are you(college, high school, younger, older)? I feel like, and maybe I'm clouded in judgment by my disdain for the poor writing of the finale, you're pulling a McNally here, saying you can craft good art without knowing what you're doing, and BSG proves it. Too many potentially great stories are ruined by starting with an awesome premise and working forward, instead of finding an awesome ending, and writing backwards.

I'm not making apologies for BSG- if you don't like it, you don't like it. Working with an ending and working backwards is a valid story writing method- one the BSG writers obviously didn't observe. btw I'm 36, hetero, two kids, not married, never published anything (never attempted), music is in my soul.

Movies do that alot too, when you hear of re-shoots of scenes and hell for that matter we even get alternate endings with our DVDs

I thought the finale was about as good as they could have done. I was dissapointed they went with the "higher power" angle, though I wasn't suprised, since the show has been god(s)-heavy from the very beginning. I liked how they tied in the opera house with the scene on Galactica, and everyone ending up on our Earth at the end, though Jesus-Starbuck dissapearing into thin air pissed me off.
