This last episode was a terrible injustice to an otherwise GREAT SERIES!
Just awful.

@abk245 They didn't know that we would revert to false religions and burning witches. They thought this was a way out of the cycle.

BSG ended perfectly, albeit quite harshly, Caprica ended . . . well yeah, so who's up for BSG Blood and Chrome? that is if it ever comes out lol
-
Sad part when Starbuck leaves lee. They would have had a big family running and climbing mountains all over earth. Ah :/ sad ending but good.

@BloodofPatriots It was beautiful to see Gaius finally grow to accept himself and his humanity. He was able to confront his past, make a selfless decision, and find the ability to be content. Truly my favorite character followed closely by Tom Frackin' Zarek

Baltar's realization that he's gone through so much, gained so much, only to spend the rest of his life as a subsistence farmer makes him almost forgivable... almost.

when james edward olmos says goodbye to starbuck gets me misty eyed everytime

So although the finale left me very sad and empty, I don't think that makes it a bad finale. It was very thought-provoking and spurred my imagination as it left quite a few things open-ended. I love the connection to our present day earth. Our mitochondrial eve being half-cylon is awesome and totally plausible as we kind of are machines in many ways. Really gets you thinking about human nature and the implications of technological advancement.
Gonna miss the hell out of this show.

and them stripping themselves of all their technology. The latter wasn't that sad compared to the characters parting but definitely confusing (how are they going to do anything without even basic tools?).
What happened to Lee was absolutely tragic. Not only is he never going to see his dad again but then he also loses Kara - the love of his life. Some of the character separations I just don't understand, especially Bill separating from Lee and Saul - his son and best friend.
I hate it when great shows end, I get this horrible feeling in my stomach.

I like the idea behind the ending, but what annoys me about the scrapping of their technology and advanced civilization is: With what did that leave the human race? 150,000 years of wars, witch hunts/burnings, plagues, genocides, etc. Granted there are many wonderful things we've accomplished, but perhaps humankind would have been a few (or many) steps ahead had we not flown all of our technology and civilized values into the sun... It just seemed like an odd decision for the humans to make.
