"the new battlestar galactica"
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.

"Local Video Store won this one."
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,


"That Documentary Episode -- Yuck"
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.

"Those Clever Cylons"
If you bought Seanson 1.0 and watched the whole thing, you will then be buying Seanson2.0. Why? Because those Clever Cylons leave you hanging out in space with the 'ole cliffhanger everytime. You want to know what happens... buy Seanson 2.0. Besides, after Season 1.0 you are probably "hooked" anyway. Sit back and enjoy the ride. And think about buying the next Season prior to viewing the last disc of the current Seanson you are watching... then you don't have to wait to see what happens... unless you just want to!!! We have a BSG view-a-thon on Saturday nights. I will be ordering Seanson 3.0 real soon. Highly reccommended.

"BSG seasons 1 thru 3 - good warm up for the FINAL season ..."
I've seen each and every episode on the Sci-Fi channel, plus the extras online. I bought seasons 1 thru 3, plus the "Razor" and the "Miniseries".

WOW! Can't leave the couch! Watching this series WITHOUT commercials is a true gift! Already into the 4th (and final) season, and can't wait for the DVD set!!!!

BTW - did you know that BSG won a "Peabody" award for their writing? W2G BSG!!!!

If you're a sci fi fan, then WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

If you're NOT a sci-fi fan, then GET ON THE BANDWAGON and watch the BEST dramatic (sci-fi) series EVER on TV. I kid you NOT. This show ROCKS!!!!

"Great Show, Bad Box Set", The show is outstanding, but it's a tremendous shame that the box set only contains the first 10 episodes Season 2 and still costs $35.

For the price and lack of content, the 2.0 box set deserves a 1 star rating. But the high quality of the DVD transfer means it has at least one redeeming value. Hopefully they won't do this again.

"Satisfied", Amazon.com delivered the season episode box on time and in great shape. Nothing else needs to be said...

JMS

"Great show, delivered in 2 days!", The show is amazing I highly recommend it. Amazon got it to me in 2 days!! Best Buy charges 21 dollars more and it takes a gallon of gas to get there.

"BSG Season 2.0", 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.


"Excellent", 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

"What the Frak is Battlestar Galactica?", Developed by sci-fi veteran, Ronald D. Moore, not only is Battlestar Galactica the best show on television these days, it is television at its frakin' best. The sci-fi epic chronicles the journey of the last surviving humans from the Twelve Colonies of Kobol after the nuclear annihilation of their home planet (Caprica) by the Cylons (an alien Empire of machines intent on destroying the "inferior" human race) in their search for a new home (the mythical and long-lost thirteenth colony, Earth). The survivors (approximately 50,000 in all) are led by President Laura Roslin (Mary McDonnell) and Commander William Adama (Edward James Olmos) in a fleet of ships with the Battlestar Galactica, a old submarine-like battleship ("The Bucket"), at the Fleet's command. Season Two of BSG opens with the Cylons (now evolved into human form) still in relentless pursuit of the Galactica and its "ragtag fleet" of survivors as Commander William Adama recovers from his injuries, and ends with a cliffhanger threatening President Laura Roslin's presidency. Much of this season involves her breast cancer and prophetic visions about planet Earth.

THE HISTORY OF BSG: Battlestar Galactica is a "re-imagining" of 1978 television series. In 2003, a four-hour Sci Fi Channel Miniseries became the pilot of the 2004 television series, which premiered on Sky One in the UK and Ireland in 2004, and then on the Sci Fi Channel in the U.S. in 2005. Season One seamlessly picks up where the Miniseries ended, and based on the success of the 13-episodes of Season One, the Sci-Fi Channel ordered a full 20-episode second season in 2005. The fourth (and final) season of BSG will begin on April 4, 2008.

THE THREE-PART STRUCTURE OF BSG. BSG involves three equally-fascinating, intertwined storylines: (1) the Colonial survivors' quest for Earth; (2) the possible psychosis of Dr. Gaius Baltar (James Callis), whose every thought and interraction is closely scrutinized by a beautiful Cylon incarnation (Tricia Helfer) (one wonders, is she real or Baltar's fantasy?), and (3) the Caprican Resistance efforts of crash-landed pilots Helo (Tahmoh Penikett), Boomer (Grace Park), and others. Ultimately, BSG is a lesson in the value of human love.

THE APPEAL OF BSG: BSG transcends the sci-fi genre, which is what makes it so appealing to both young and old, male and female viewers, alike. Critics have referred to the show as a "space opera." It is an intelligent drama that confronts cutting-edge issues, set in Deep Space. In that respect, BSG is a departure from other science fiction shows like Star Trek. In BSG, traditional male roles have been reversed. Military leaders such as President Laura Roslin and unconventional Viper fighter pilots such Starbuck (Katee Sackhoff) and Boomer are played by actresses. The alien Cylons have evolved out of "flawed" humanity. Most of the show's human characters struggle with personal issues: dysfunctional relationships, alcoholism, smoking, and a variety of possible mental illnesses. Cylon blood is resistant to human disease. The show resonates with post-9/11 moral and ethical issues: terrorism, sleeper cells, suicide bombers, the torture of prisoners, the erosion of civil liberties, and conflicting religious beliefs.

BSG SEASON 2.0 DVD: BSG Season 2.0 includes the first 10 episodes (201-210) of Season Two:

201 Scattered
202 Valley of Darkness
203 Fragged
204 Resistance
205 The Farm
206 Home, Part 1
207 Home, Part 2
208 Final Cut
209 Flight of the Phoenix
210 Pegasus

SHOULD YOU BUY THIS DVD SET? They say patience is a virtue. I recommend waiting for the release of the Miniseries/Seasons 1-4 box set, if you can.

"More great writing", Season two continues where the first season leaves off. There are more glimpses of things to come and the plot continues to engage the veiwer.

"Buy Your Command - BSG Season 2 is one of the best television seasons of all time", (Get both Season 2 boxes if you are in for this.)

The makers of Battlestar Galactica (BSG), who proved they had a big enough brass pair to offer up a challenge to Star Wars and Star Trek, have blasted this series up there with the best of the best. It is fraking mind-blowing television and some of the best SF since Luke Skywalker trusted the force and Spock tried to fix a damaged warp core.

BSG is barely recognizable from the 1970s original series. Such is the scope of the makeover and development of the original storyline that all previous BSG series history has been declared void by the writers and the story has gone through a creative renewal. This reimagining was done to enhance the concept... and the reboot has paid off in aces.

The Cylons were created by man. They evolved. There are many copies. And they have a plan. In the past, there was a war. The Cylons left. Now they are back and they want revenge. They chase and try to kill humans of the twelve colonies across the galaxy.

BSG season 2 continues with the search for the Spear of Athena in the hope that it will point the way back to Earth. The religious elements become central to the story, especially the Cylon resurrection system, which becomes a target for a visually knocking out battle sequence. There are even crossover renegade groups starting to form in each camp. The new arrival of an important addition to the fleet and some of the most thrilling sequences yet seen for a show of any kind. BSG has also adopted more adult themes and has moved away from family viewing to allow for harder action sequences and higher intensity crises.

Season 2 takes place mainly on the deck of the Galatica, but also on Colonial One (the President's cruise ship), the planets Caprica, Kobal and New Caprica. There is lots of powerhouse acting. Commander William Adama (Edward James Olmos) maintains his position as one of the most memorable characters in television history (you can rank him up there with the likes of Captain Picard). Laura Roslin (Mary McDonnell) as the President goes through some radical character dilemmas as does Starbuck, a woman in this version of BSG, whose background love relationships are as important as her action-woman persona. Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama (Jamie Bamber) ascends up the ranks and Dr. Gaius Baltar (James Callis) finds himself in an impasse between himself and the Cylons. Number Six (Tricia Helfer) starts a type of revolution. Colonel Saul Tigh (Michael Hogan) relationship with his wife has an impact on his career. Lt. Sharon 'Boomer' Valerii (Grace Park) is a powerful Cylon presence that makes an impact on the storyline. Can the Cylons co-exist with humans? ... Can they hybridize? This is but a small section of the interesting storylines and enormous cast that BSG has to offer... and yes important characters do die, so its edge of your seat stuff through and through.

The CGI is up there the best ILM can put out. One sequence in which an ejected pilot, Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama, observes the resurrection ship battle in the stars maybe one of the greatest SF action sequences of all time that would even make Kubrik's eyes go wide open. The real stars of the show are the screenwriters. It is their boat and they are taking us on what appears to be a voyage unparallel to anything else you have seen before.

BSG Season 2 keeps up the post-9/11 brain candy. The writers sometimes jab at the Bush administration foreign and war policies and then again seem to back them up. In Season 1 it was about the constant search for fossil fuels and battling for control of resources while freedoms get restricted in the fight against terrorism, modelling our own political struggles. In Season 2 its politics coupled with colonization.

The interesting religious confrontation involving polytheism (the human belief system in BSG) and monotheism (the Cylon belief system) has extended and even crosses over. The afterlife, or something like it, begins to emerge.

Season 2 is mostly about finding Earth, the Cyclon resurrection ship, elections, hybridizing and colonization. If you are a fan of SF or just high-quality television, then nothing should be holding you back. BSG could very well be the most important SF TV since Star Trek. It certainly has propelled itself out of this world and is in a dimension all of its own... except when Cylons appear.

"It's sci-fi, Jim, but not as we know it.", Most people would be slightly weary of the idea of a new and re-invigorated version of the spectacle Science Fiction Drama series Battlestar Galactica (1978-1980) being up to the year in which the series became 'Galactica 1980', which lead to its thoroughly trashed downfall, was a bit of a surprise that a network had decided to re-fashion the show with a more updated and far more interesting story. Many fans would, should insist that this is a re-imagining not an intrinsic remake of a cheesy lovable, and to use a pun for a modern show, "That 70's Show". Many of the sci-fi fan-boys, and girls, were in need of a successful sci-fi drama series that had the ability to keep fresh interest and action with drama to top.

The show comes from that concept of a 2003 mini-series, a somewhat thorough and enjoyable close to 3 hr pilot. The principal point, machines are made by man, evolved, rebelled, and a war began.

Sci-fi rubbed off on this show, and it pays to respect it with homage's. With elements from novelist Philip K. Dick from his earlier works of "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" now known as the film adaptation "Blade Runner" along with the dark twisted parallel of the humanoid Cylons, and that mirrored `skinjob' reference. It also manages to match the dark allegory of P. K Dick' "Valis" a unique exploration of plethora's and universal metaphysics.

The virtuous and glamoured imagery bears the likeness of Kubrick' "2001: A Space Odyssey" with cross-cut scenes of Baseships in the sunlight of a nearby star, with a score to match. The score itself is very cinematic, in that it mixes and mingles with the imagery of the show to great exertion; continuously trying new techniques and new ways to give the eye candy. The score feels very dark, operatic and at the same time very tautly tense; it again has mirrored Vangelis' score in "Blade Runner" with the deep drum sound to hard hitting acoustics.

Battlestar Galactica is the best character drama that has the real dexterity of raw emotion; the acting shapes plot and vice versa. The characters are flawed and they should be, the situation creates the drama and evidently shapes the characters actions. It perhaps is the only show to bludgeon the scene with taut and well crafted dialogue and sharpest whit, measured writing that current shows like LOST and Heroes could benefit from. The dialogued scenes are spot on quality, the actors all themselves have unique range; perhaps currently the best acting troupe on TV. They have unique ability to play different parts of their personas during the course of a single episode, and still bring a sense of morality, logic and whit to the role; very much unlike a "space opera".

The acting troupe has characters including Edward James Almos' brilliant depiction of Commander/Admiral Adama; easily being a favourite. His slightly depressed attitude yet experience make him capable, if not slightly down heartened. His display as a commander of the pride of the fleet does show why he is the best person to have control of a superior vessel. He is quick to think, act and knowing what the cost is with the troubles of his confounded life. Two other characters change form and gender, the two now female, where the Galactica predecessor had two male characters, (when fans should not complain) Katee Sackhoff as Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace, is born into the role of a hard-headed female Viper pilot. As well as the other female candidate played by Grace Park nicknamed 'Boomer'.

One thing this show does well is giving the most unexpected outcome possible, real credit to the writers that show they have a lot of grenades to go certain ways and that their bold spontaneity will either be accepted or judge by audiences. The writers of this show are very clever, in that you might think they plan out the show years in advance a la "Babylon 5" or "Lost" however you could not be more wrong. The show is written by boldly engaging the big issues currently on TV. You wonder how does a rag-tag fleet survive in the most logical and pragmatic way, scripted to show you that the real evidence of this is present in stories inspired by recent history and current events.

Truth is that many aspects of futuristic life may well be reflected on the current stand stead of today's socio-political and ethical conflict, that's if we decide to create robots that want to kill us. The themes themselves also reflect the big issues: drama, love, personal betrayal, post-9/11 parables, death, rape, murder, greed, religious extremism, depravity and also the antonyms when the situation lightens up (there is humour). In addition, unremittingly keeps putting forth the notion of what is exactly human. It's about genocide, war and the abyss after the precipice.

The special effects are not the only thing that shows high production value, it would put some of the current Trek franchise to shame. Everything is luscious, from the pure spot-on script and unexpected plots to the character actions and the big explosions going on outside.
The imagery splits from sporadic to perpetual, the effects are full of ardour CGI and digital FX, 'in the mind of the pilot/documentary' shot sequences. The new breed of improved and scary Terminator influenced Cylon centurions and human-looking Cylon infiltrators who's brutal degradation towards mankind reflects the worst parts of humanity. Is it pure hate, spite, jealousy or maybe because they have found a god to kill for; sound familiar? Moreover, what you have been waiting for, yes it does have graphic scenes of a sexual nature, but it's not for everyone.

Verdict:

The World is over. The Fight has just begun. 10/10.

"Excellent series!", This series is very well written, and full of great acting. The story is addictive, and if you are a fan of anything science fiction, than you will most likely find yourself anxious to see whats gonna happen next. Of coarse its best to start with season one, as this season 2.0 follows behind season 1.
