I love the reimagined version. Long have I groused that the first series turned into the "LoveBoat in Space". This was far more believable and gritty - what an evacuation with nothing but the shirts on your back WOULD be like.
They started to really stretch my disbelief gland when they had the cylon civil war and the rebels join up with the humans. Ummm... that's starting to hurt there. The whole Uberpower in control of your destinies thing was beaten too hard as well. The lame ending of the second half of the finale really was too much - angels are the answer to every question? Come on - I've earned a better finale than that. Pooh.
Me, I pretend that the last half of this final season don't exist. I let the midseason cliffhanger on Urth be the finale in my mind. A very powerful climax where they've reached their goal, and now wander around lost and thinking "Now what?"
