   I guess you missed the fact that the show was basically about people,   
   -the Cylons included-and how they reacted to adversity and what kind   
   of relationships that fostered. Some of what you decry out of context   
   were the best moments of the show showing how both heroic and flawed   
   those people were. Even Kara on the toilet to the embarrassment of   
   Baltar was funny in its context.   
      
   BSG was foremost a drama and yes the last season was some of the   
   best work, including the last half.
