OK, so finally watched the okkvlt new episode, and I have to say: whatever.

These writers are just getting drunk and coming up with weird plot twists, then trying to tie the whole thing together.

It's lame. Why would a group of people, traveling in space for three years, celebrate reaching earth before checking it out?

And then when they go to the surface, why would there be dead plants from a 2,000 year old attack?

After that, everyone gets all emo and we're supposed to feel for them, but it's like: you just saw most of your species get destroyed, what did you expect?

That and the constant references to bad 1960s music make it very, very lame.

This turd of a program can take it in the ass.

i was pretty disapointed as well. Did you watch it from the beginning of the series? Seasons 1,2 and half of 3 were incredible, but unless this finishes really strong, it'll be a big letdown

I saw season 1, and then have only caught snippets here and there when I can -- I don't own a TV, and am really lazy about finding video online. So when I heard it was going to be going again, I started hunting down the video, and caught the new one last night.

I'm still kind of bummed. It's turning into that omelette-style storytelling that all bad sci-fi becomes. I still have hope though that they'll turn it around.

I have all season on dvd and a big fan of old and new... I hope season four is not that bad as you say conservationist...damn.

hulu.com is where you wanna go. at least for the newer ones.

What about Scifi.com? they have episodes on there to watch.

what the frack are you talking about?

the first time I heard "frackin" I changed the channel.

That is from the original series...I like it a lot and easy!

Apparently, others noted the space soap operatics:

"Frack" was kind of clever as a substitute, until one realized that it makes our use of the word FUCK appear as extraneous as it is.

Fucking writers.

i just downloaded all this in HD. i just want a good sf show with decent actors that's not star trek or firefly.

Show rules.
