I too got the impression that BoP was spectacularly bad.
I watched it for the hot chicks. But yeah, really bad.
Bester: Mal. Whaddya need two mechanics for? Mal: I really don't.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Our wings are not tired.
I haven't watched Smallville except for a couple episodes the first year. Is it true that Lana's parents are dead?
BSG! Woo!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I can't sit still, and all I'm doing is watching the clock. It's BSG Season Premiere Day! If the net nanny at work allowed videos, I'd be watching online.
It feels like Christmas!
edit: Evidently, I can't type either.

Pfft, Dana. It's Kara Thrace and her Special Destiny, and Lee Adama in a suit, and four frakking people who never dreamed they were Cylons. What does Torchwood and Doctor Who have on that?
t thinks about Captain Jack and Ianto, plus the good doc
Umm, never mind. I think my TV's gonna melt tonight.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'll have to go fetch my eyes from wherever they rolled out of my head after the last BSG finale. I don't suppose there's any point in wishing for less portentousness. It's an attribute.

Oh, come on, you don't like being hit over the head with an anvil?
Did you think the finale was bad, or just portentous? (And I'm not sure which meaning of portentous you're going for: the ominous foreshadowing definition or the puffed up with vanity one?)
The repetition of "Kara Thrace has a special destiny" by everyone and their Cylons was old after the first five minutes, but I thought the second half of the season made up for a shaky first.

Let's go with both. To be honest I can't break down the season enough to tell you my feelings about one half or another--once I've had a chance to read synopses I might have a go.
The finale itself was like a big old timpani and I don't have the English to express my OMGWTFBBQ? at the Dylan thing.
