DVD Reviews of Battlestar Galactica - Season 2.0 (Episodes 1-10)
DVD Review: BSG Season 2.0
Summary: 5 Stars
I enjoy this series about as much as anything I can think of. It is wonderful to watch it on DVD and not have to watch the reruns on SciFi channel. I do wish they had released seasons 2.0 and 2.5 together on the same DVD set. We could surely have saved some money.
DVD Review: Excellent
Summary: 4 Stars
The new BSG did not catch my interest the few times I stopped channel surfing to sample it. In a conversation with a coworker my interest was sparked and I bought the series.... Excellent story telling. I like the fact that not every aspect is "futuristic" to the point of fantanstic, e.g. still using projectiles versus LASERs or particle beam weapons.
The daily machinations of the crew are believeable, at least when compared to today's services.
Sorry to see it end
DVD Review: the new battlestar galactica
Summary: 5 Stars
this series is just magnificant. it's action, drama and si-fi all in one.
what it isn't is funny. the new crew find bad luck one turn after the next fighting the cylons but hey bad turns are real life.
DVD Review: Local Video Store won this one.
Summary: 3 Stars
After Reading the reviews on the wonderful show BSG. I decided to partake in this awesome adventure and buy Season 1. I wrote a 4 star review on that DVD package because it was a good buy for me. I was definitely hooked after seeing Season 1.
Unfortunately, when it was time to buy season 2, I couldn't bring myself to pay for Season 2.0 and season 2.5. I felt that if I was able to be a proud owner of BSG Season one Complete for under fifty bucks then I wouldn't mind having BSG Season 2 Complete for around 50 bucks as well.
So for brevity, I ended up just watching Season 2 via the local video store as I wait for the price to go down.
I know the production cost for BSG is high and Season 2 does have more episodes than season one so I gave my review 3 stars instead of 2.
Good Hunting,
DVD Review: That Documentary Episode -- Yuck
Summary: 1 Stars
I like this show, its certainly better than a lot of junk on TV these days. However, the episode where a member of the press does a 'real world' style documentary on the BSG crew... ugh. Just a device for lazy writers to do some exposition on their characters whose traits, thoughts, and feelings OUGHT to come to light through the events on the ship and how they react to them. This cheesy tactic is a complete betrayal of the first rule of good fiction writing: "Show it, don't tell it." And it ruins this whole season.
Description of Battlestar Galactica - Season 2.0 (Episodes 1-10)
The first half of Battlestar Galactica's second season left no doubts about the continuing excellence of the best science fiction TV series of 2005. Beginning with the Colonial Fleet separated, Col. Tigh (Michael Hogan) botching his temporary command, and Capt. Adama (Edward James Olmos) near death after a Cylon assassination attempt, series producer/developer Ronald D. Moore and his gifted writing staff packed more into these 10 episodes than most series manage in a full season. Maintaining its reputation as an adult drama, the series is compellingly anchored by the gravitas of Olmos and Mary McDonnell, whose role as Fleet President Laura Roslin grows more complex as she reveals her diagnosis of breast cancer and defies Adama, playing the "religious card" with her conviction that prophetic visions will lead the embattled fleet toward its legendary home planet Earth. As Adama's son Apollo (Jamie Bamber) wrestles with his role in Roslin's mutinous agenda, paranoia runs high as Cylon copies (or "avatars") of Boomer (Grace Park) complicate matters aboard Galactica and on Kobol, where a lost Raptor crew struggles to survive and Dr. Baltar (James Callis) endures the increasingly haunting and manipulative intrusions into his tormented psyche by Number Six (Tricia Helfer), the seductive Cylon who holds the secret to the Cylon master plan to destroy humankind.Further action takes place on Cylon-occupied Caprica, where Starbuck (Katee Sackhoff) and Helo (Tamoh Penikett) discover a group of human resistance fighters who survived the Cylons' nuclear attack in season 1. As all of these plot threads are expertly interwoven, the high-stakes conflict of BG 2.0 culminates in a suspenseful mid-season cliffhanger. Through all of this, Battlestar Galactica maintains consistently high standards of intelligent drama and well-justified, story-based use of spectacular special effects, while developing rich relationships across a broad spectrum of interesting supporting characters. The series' large and likable cast is well-used throughout (even smaller roles are given adequate dimension), and Moore's "podcast" commentaries provide a smart, thorough analysis of the show's writing process and conceptual evolution. Yes, it's undeniably true that this half-season DVD set is a blatantly commercial ploy to lure more and more viewers into the ongoing season (which resumed in January 2006), but you can hardly blame Universal for capitalizing on a high-quality series. With solid ratings, good scripts, and a devoted cast and crew, Battlestar Galactica showed every indication of thriving toward a third season and beyond. --Jeff Shannon
Sci-fi's hottest TV series returns as Battlestar Galactica 2.0 blasts onto DVD in Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound. As the epic second season begins, the fight to save humanity rages on - even as civil war looms within the fleet between the followers of President Roslin and Commander Adama. Relive all the intensity and excitement aboard the Galactica with a supernova of explosive bonus features, including deleted scenes and podcasts. It's a heart-pounding adventure you can't afford to miss!
