...as the fleet headed into our sun.

I thought that was a monumental waste of good raw materials.

Yeah, and I didn’t like the whole implication that they were leaving technology behind. Let’s see how good that works the first time one of them gets an infection.

[BenLurkin]

I thought it was a waste of a good line.

The last order to Anders should have been "Set the controls for the heart of the sun."

"...as the fleet headed into our sun. I thought that was a monumental waste of good raw materials."

Agree and more. Great show, but the ending had an anti-technology bias, although saved somewhat by the flash forward to the future. The Adam and Eve ending of leaving all their technology behind would have likely met a grim end in the jaws of the local carnivores and diseases.

I have to agree.

There were so many things that were bad with the ending.

Adama Jr gets to decide that he doesn't want a city, thus no technology for any of the survivors, thus they destroy the ships. What about the other 39,000? Oh, except that Daddy Adama gets to keep one.

It seemed 'stretched'. We did Earth destroyed by nukes (how pc), so now we can do New Earth but at 150,000 years ago. That chimed more of filler material.

And then they all scatter, except for the line of them walking across the plains at the very end. Adama leaves Jr? That was unreal.

The final chapter was full of holes.
