Colonel Tigh takes a Swim. New Season for Battlestar Galactica

Woot! The new season for Battlestar Galactica is on!!! Just watched the first episode - it rocks!!! At the same time its probably one of the darkest episodes of the series. Can't really talk to much about the show otherwise I'll end up revealing too much. Suffice to say:

One of the main stars gets killed.

The final cylon is revealed.

And the origins of the 13th Tribe are elaborated upon.

Unfortunately, yes, they've really found Earth. No, its not a mistake. (Or perhaps, its THEIR version of Earth). The movie producers were very careful not to show the planet with its continent landmass shown clearly.

I'd say the series has gotten better. However, I really hated Season Two - the one on New Caprica. It made zero sense by having the Cylons and Colonials living together. Why didn't the Cylons destroy all the Colonial ships? Why did they tolerate the humans killing them? Why didn't they lock all the humans in prisons?

Anyways, this is going to be the final episode series for BSG. They've already started selling the props from the movie series - including a Viper spacecraft model. Now wouldn't it be absolutely cool to own one??? Economy be damned.
