I still get goose bumps when I recall the Galactica doing that free-fall into the atmosphere and launching the Vipers before jumping out of there.

I NEVER felt that kind of excitement watching a TV show before.

Oh hell yeah, that was awesome, and the effects looked SO GOOD. They must have spent a crap load of money on that scene.

from the jaw dropping season 1 finale, to season 2's bleak and shocking ending, all the way to the series finale (and then that "The Plan" film which didn't impress me too much ). while i felt season 3 was lacking a certain something, it was still a very great ride and i look forward to my next journey through space with the Galactica members

i remember how absolutely LIVID

[Show spoiler]Starbuck

made me in a few episodes () but her final scene in the series finale made me have to choke back tears i thought it was a very fitting and still very eerie and cryptic ending to that character arc. seems like a lot of people hate the ambiguity of it, but i loved it.

hilariously enough i thought the goal of

[Show spoiler]finding Earth

would be a season 1 arc, not something that would cover the entire series!

who's everyone's favorite character?

i think mine has to be Baltar, but a second viewing may change that.

btw a mod should spoiler tag HAMP's post. if this thread is for new people to discuss the show they will likely be pissed to accidentally see what he (and i think one or two others) have stated about characters / the series as it's not in spoiler tags!

I think the intention of the thread was for people who have already seen the show.. ?

My favorite character, tough choice, so many different personalities on it.. Baltar was really interesting, so I have to go with him. Although he faded away a little in season 4, he was pretty much the primary character for the other seasons.
