BSG has gone way, way, way downhill.
(48 hours earlier) Chris stares at the screen, mouth agape. "IDIOT!!!" he yells ineffectually at the screen, as Apollo tries to pull off a trick that cannot possibly work.

Personally I feel like they ran out of steam. They were producing a finely tuned creation, and I think you can only do that for so long before you wear out. It feels like we were in someone's creation and now that entity has been outsourced. (It felt like one person's vision, but it might just have been a really good team.)
Or the were producers overspending their budget, or the Sci-Fi channel smacked them saying "we want more <>".
The question is, "Is it better than the original series?"
But, if it turns out that it really is going south, I agree that the Roslin/cancer/cure thing will have been its doom. I definitely groaned about that. She's my favorite character on the show, so naturally I'm glad to still have her around. But her death would have opened some really awesome storytelling possibilities. I felt like the writers chickened out - something I didn't expect from Ron Moore.
