DVD Reviews of Battlestar Galactica - Season Three
DVD Review: All War all the time, or Sleazy sex
Summary: 1 Stars
I've read the reviews, almost all of them. Few of them seem to have anything to do with the writing, directing or production.
They seem to be pointed at plots that suit a predilection.
Even mine, come to think of it. My predilection being for reason and relationships.
The third season reaches for thought and nobility, though the first two did also. The third season rises above producers' "war and sex", without abandoning the importance of either.
The questions raised in the third season are exquisite. Painful. And important. The single thing this series does magnificently is raise questions. Even early on.
I count the third season as the very best, but acknowledge my dislike of war and sexual violence (humiliation) may be biasing me.
The writing has been supurb throughout.
Though I also notice: Joss Whedon made us laugh at ourselves.
BSG doesn't.

DVD Review: BSG Season 3 - excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
The series continues to confront current issues and entertain at the same time. Sets up for the Season4 finales very well.DVD Review: This is just a soap opera, in space
Summary: 1 Stars
Don't be fooled by all the positive reviews. This show is not "ground-breaking", or "the best show on television" or whatever. Its a caricature of a sci-fi show, in that its basically a soap opera in space. BSG even gets covered in Soap Opera digest, that's how far gone it is from the realm of sci-fi
All of the characters behave non-sensically, no plot issue is ever resolved, any time anyone is getting along they have a fight for no reason, just to keep everyone at each other's throats all the time, and the writers routinely contradict themselves in every single episode
Starbuck is not only the best fighter pilot ever, but the best sniper ever, the best hand to hand fighter ever, she can time travel, Cylons love her, she is the only one who can find Earth, and any man on the show would give his right arm to sleep with her, and she's a great painter? What can't she do? Nothing comes to mind
One episode you have a guy point his fire arm at his commanding officer, mutiny, refuse direct orders and demand to have his way, then 10 minutes later everyone has forgotten about it, and the next week THAT SAME GUY is doing something he doesn't want to do, something he knows will lead to disaster, because "orders are orders"?
There's all of 10 main characters left on the show, and as of this writing there are maybe 5 of them who haven't been revealed to be Cylons. Kind of makes you wonder why they're bothering to continue the war on humanity when every single human leader is a Cylon, but I don't guess the show was meant to be scrutinized that closely
BSG is an insult to its viewers, and has much more in common with Desperate Housewives or Dirt than it does with the X-Files, the original BSG, Star Wars, Star Trek, or any other sci-fi show I can think of. Which is fine if that's what you want, but they don't market it as the kind of show it is, that's what I'm saying
I will say the mini-series was pretty good, and the first season wasn't bad, but in season 2 this show went off the rails big time and by season 3 it was just a complete joke. Do yourself a favor and don't ever get started on it unless you just love lots of pointless screaming and soft core sex scenes that stop and start at random times
DVD Review: Battlestar galactica season three/DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
BSG season three is wonderful. All the extras and director and producer video blogs really get you inside the set. That is very interesting to me.
If you are hooked on BSG, buy season three. You already know that you can watch it again and again and get something new out of it each time. Best thing on TV. Thanks Scifi network.
DVD Review: The long, hard slog through space...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best season so far of a stellar show. Seasons 1 and 2 were both great, but season 3 goes the extra mile because the writers showed complete fearlessness by letting it get dark. The bleak sensibility is endemic to the series' circumstances; what we have here is pure existentialism. What hooked me into Battlestar from the beginning was not just obviously the amazing mini-series, but moreover its ending, when Admiral Adama admits privately that though he's just given a speech to the entire remaining human race about how they're now heading for Earth, he has no idea where Earth is. This season goes beyond the tit-for-tat space battles with the cylons, which I do love. The creators had the courage to dig down deep into the premise, to deal with life on board these ships, both human and cylon. I love that we spend time on board the cylon bay ships, that we see the human class differences and basic social structure perpetuating from the colonies, that we really get the feeling of not just hopelessness that was present in season 2, but of resolve. Most television programs turn away from that kind of darkness/depth and retreat when confronted with the prospect of boring down into the most organic inner recesses of a given premise. That retreat is often referred to as "jumping the shark". The creators of this new Battlestar series are crafting Sartre-esque literature.
