Season one drew me in, season two kept me watching, but by half way through 3 I got bored and nothing in season 4 (part 1) reignited my interest. As for season 4 (part 2) "The Final Season" (thank god, but explained later) despite having Sky I got totally bored with it that I stopped watching it after 4 episodes and I am no longer interested in the conclusion (did they or didn't they find Earth - I stopped caring!).

Season 1 and 2 were for fans (like me) of sci-fi, by the time they got round to producing season 3 and 4 they clearly aimed it at fans of soap operas and it became more Dallas/Eastenders than Battlestar Galactica (either original series or season 1 and 2). What a let down, more so since I made the mistake of purchasing season 1 and 2.

I may eventually buy season 3 and the full season 4 and watch the conclusion some time, but only when the price comes down further than it's current price.

I wont go on about how good it is as you only need to buy the first season and you are hooked and will be racing down to the stores to get the next one. But!!!!!!!!!!!! I must recommend that you buy and watch "battlestar galactica: The resistance" first as it is a miniseries between season 2 and 3. I didnt watch this and immediately knew i missed something just from the catchup before the first episode. I wont give it away but the miniseries will linke the season together and help solve a few questions and major stuff goes down.

Season three is excellent the show itself is an engaging masterpiece, I would highly reccomend this to anyone.
