Farewell, Battlestar

Thank you, hulu, for providing me with some fairly decent sci-fi; I don't have a television. I guess I'll have to go back to reading books and writing poems now that Battlestar Galactica is over. This is what my life will be without:
  • Robots punching robots.
  • 6 and Baltar tension.
  • Projected 6 in Baltar's mind, including sexual tension and the time she picked him up off the ground when he was getting beaten by marines.
  • Col. Tigh, total babe. Michael Hogan, total Canadian hippie babe.
  • Gaeta is good. Gaeta sings prettily. Gaeta incites a revolution.
  • Starbuck, a cigar-smokin' lady pilot.
  • Dr. Cottle, the lovely Grumpy Gus and great man smoker.
  • Starbuck loves Lee. Starbuck loves Sam. Starbuck experiences weird kidnap sexual tension with Leoben. 
  • Dear Chief: you were one of the best actors on the show. You made an awesome union leader.
  • Helo: good to see you on Dollhouse. We still call you Helo in our house. 
  • President Roslin's smile.
  • Loved the way everyone looked so "military" in the beginning.
  • Adama battle speeches. Psych.
  • Baltar lives!
  • All Along the Watchtower.
  • We don't trust Zarek. Let's make him vice president. He looks oddly familiar...
  • Geez, remember Billy?

Only pt 1 of Daybreak is on Hulu! I still don't know what happened. Is part 2 elsewhere on the web?
