COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Battlestar Galactica (New) Season One, Disc 5 submitted by paulgreinerjp on September 28, 2007, 8:59am The single episode on this disc ends the series on a tone similar to other episodes. Expect cliffhangers rather than plot-arc wrap ups.
I reguard the season as very good, but not great. My complaint is with sometimes overly heavy emphasis (they'll say something three times in a row so even the least observant viewer has a chance to "get it") and ocasional times when characters actions lack foundation, as if important setup scenes had been left out. But overall, they take their premise seriously while reserving areas where they can have dark humor (crazy Doc. Baltar).

Disk 5 includes deleted scenes, which are worth watching, and behind the scenes stuff, which, as far as I watched it, were just pre-season promo material, so not every interesting after you've already watched the show.

Great! submitted by brady.emmett on August 1, 2011, 8:35pm
This has all happened before, and it will all happen again. Battlestar Galactica won me over, and I'm sure it will win you over too. One important note! Make sure that you watch the mini-series first! It's on Disc 1 of Season 1. I tried to jump right in to season 1, not knowing about the Mini-Series. It lost me, and so I missed out on BSG for a few more years, until someone recommended the series to me again.

The first season shows the increasing desperation that the struggling band of humans has in defending itself against the more powerful Cylons. Humanity has been decimated... Now it is up to a rag-tag band of survivors to make it to Earth. Or just keep surviving.

I loved the first season. You will too!

Great series submitted by ashflowtuff on August 24, 2011, 8:34am This is a really great show. The writing and acting are excellent. The story is compelling and intense. The miniseries starting Season 1 is amazing, and I recommend it to anyone who is a fan of quality TV.
