 Battlestar Galactia Ga-Ga Jan 24, 2010
Just because its reinvasion doesn't make it great I thought Battlestar Galactica
Was to dark of a sci-fi show & too incoherent it made no sense to me what so ever!
Thank god there still is the original!
 Great half season! Jan 23, 2010
I just finished watching this half season last night, and it's excellence personified, this show just seems to get more and more interesting with each episode, it's deep, thoughtful and most of all, entertaining, and one thing that really surprises me, is the acting is excellent...which is something I find absent in most modern t.v. series, the actors you can tell are really into their roles, and their performances are done with precision and care.
I'm not going to play spoiler, because I believe that's a sin, and takes the fun out of it for people, but let me just say that I'm so glad I waited to start watching this show after it ended, so all of it would be available on DVD, and not have to worry about cliffhangers, and there is one on this half season, and I have the whole series, which I'm glad for, because I know, season ending cliffhangers are a pain, (I know about those from The X-Files), so I would suggest, if you want to get into this series, buy the whole series, you're going to want to, and yes this series is one that you have to watch the episodes in order, if you don't, you won't get it.
Another great thing about this series, is some of the guest stars, Richard Hatch (from the original series) and Michelle Forbes (Escape From L.A, and Star Trek: The Next Generation 'Ensign Ro Laren').
Do yourself a favor, if you're a science fiction fan, go out, and buy this whole series, even if you have your doubts about modern t.v. series' like me, I was hesitant, but I am so glad I ended up giving this a chance, I will never regret it!

Almost as good as season one Sep 28, 2009
You simply cannot jump into BSG with season 2. None of it will make sense. None of it will compel you.
But if you've followed the series from season 1, you practically *must* see through the story line to season 2. And fortunately, most of season 2 lives up to the high quality of the first season.
This set is only truly the first "half" of season 2 - season 2.5, while technically labeled and sold separately, is really the second half of season 2. This first half, fortunately, almost stands on its own, and aside from the final episode "Pegasus," is not truly tied to the second half - thus, it is possible (if you bought season 1) to buy this season of BSG, and not continue further with the series. It may not fully end the story of the Battlestar Galactica and its crew, but it does leave it on at least a satisfactory note.
Season 2 picks up right where 1 left off, and continues to track Galactica and its crew through an ongoing crisis (or three). Along the way we get greater insights into the history of the self-destructive Colonel Tigh, what makes Apollo tick and why he has that gigantic chip on his shoulder, and what can crack the tough facade of Starbuck - as well as some amazing glimpses of what that Cylon "plan" really might be.
As I said, one could watch most of this season, stop around episode 7 or 9, and not watch further. Beware, however, that once you've decided to go ahead and continue with "Pegasus," you will be nearly forced to continue the story through season 2.5. Don't let this stop you, however - that episode gives us new characters, new crises, and one of the absolute best performances by Callis and Helfer (but it is gut and maybe heart-wrenching - be prepared to be disturbed). On the strength of this episode, Helfer won acting awards for what can only be described as brilliant, natural acting talent.
