📌 I decided to throw in Episode 7 since it was 'Part 2' of Episode 6! This video does contain BOTH of those episodes. I put timestamps on the video so you can find your way to Part 2 more easily if you don't have time to watch it all in one sitting. Let me know in the comments if it's okay to keep this format for future "to be continued" episodes, or if you'd rather me split them up! This two-parter felt like a much needed deep breath after this whole season's drama, trauma, and uncertainty. Watching Adama and Roslin finally make amends was soo emotionally satisfying. And Adama's decision to reunite the fleet because of his love for his family and sons felt so deeply human. This journey to the Tomb of Athena was so beautiful and shifted the entire tone of the show so far. I think my jaw dropped when the characters stood in the vision of Earth's constellations. It felt like such a huge shift and I absolutely LOVED every moment of it. For a series that has focused so deeply on survival, politics, and war... This moment brought me back to that amazing wonder and mystery of a larger journey. I can't wait to see where the rest of this Season takes us now 👀🔥Thank you for your support on Patreon!Relax and enjoy 🍿🌿LINK: https://youtu.be/hmDDctzE2TAI watched this on Amazon Prime

What a frackin great surprise.

Heads up: Seasons 2,3 and 4 were released in half seasons of 10 episodes each with a big mid season finale at episode 10. It's, of course, up to you how you want to space out the episodes, but I wanted to make you aware of that. This season has an extended version of episode 10 that is 58 minutes long that a lot of us have access to. I personally would like to see you do that version if possible.

Thank you!! I remember someone mentioning awhile ago that Episode 10 was different on the DVD and it had an extended version. I'll definitely be sure to watch that one!

My take is that the tomb of Athena is like a planetarium using advanced Kobol technology - so they weren't literally on Earth, but it was a simulation of what the cosmos looks like from the view of standing on Earth? And yes, so heartwarming to see the old man find his heart _/\_

I really Enjoy Roslin and Adama's growth and arc, and they are acted really well. but i think you was a bit harsh on Adama, you called his leadership something to the effect of "complete failure", i love Roslin and the whole religious arc.. but i think she went about it in all the wrong ways that pushed Adama into a corner.. and when colonel Tye took over Galactica he did not help the situation. but at the start of the show Roslin and Adama agreed to work together and lead the fleet together, she was supposed to lead the civilians and he the military.. and the fact that they are at war gives him more authority then in peace times.. and the fact is that Roslin did not even TRY to tell Adama about her beliefs, she agreed that they needed Starbucks captured cylon ship to attack the basestar above kobol, so they could rescue the downed ship there... she went behind his back and interfered in military matters and sent Starbuck on a mission without even talking to him... and that lead to him sending Boomer to take down the Cylon basestar above Kobol. and this lead to boomer finding out she was a cylon when she meet all the other Sharons and she ended up shooting Adama.. and Roslin have even gotten Apollo to turn against his own father (but thats not purely on Roslin, that was his own choice)... then she split the fleet. giving Adama an unspoken ultimatum in my opinion... I love Roslin, but all this could probably have been avoided if she actually did as she agreed to at the start of the series and worked with him instead of going behind his back and start a mutiny. The way Roslin forced her will is not the way a persident should act, she should have been diplomatic an spoken and told Adama her beliefs and plans long before this point... but i understand she was scared and did not fully understand it I agree that Adama did not do everything correct, far from it.. but he was betrayed. and it put the fleet in danger, he has proven that he always does everything to protect the fleet, so why not trust him?. I think him flying personally down to Kobol to patch things up and forgive her is the sign of a great leader. but if i was in Adama's shoes i could not trust Roslin after that... but i guess he is a better man then me. lol I love this series. i have seen it many times and it never gets old.. love your reactions to the show :) sorry for the long post

Ron A

yes, a great bonus treat for us today

Adama is just such an awesome character. He has his beliefs, and he sticks by them. But he also never loses sight of what really matters. Especially for a fleet that's essentially the last of species. The moment they turn on each other, is the start of the end for humanity. He knew he had to be the one to set things right, and he owned up to it. Not that Roslin is free of blame for everything that's happened this season, but it ultimately had to be Adama to extend the olive branch. The reunion on Kobol with the music is just such a powerful moment! Sharon is such an interesting character too. Especially coming off last episode and the side of the Cylons we saw there, she's such a stark contrast. Once again, this show and just making it so hard to know what to think haha Also, praise the lords of Kobol that Pixel was able to nap for three whole episodes without being bothered by Remy LOL

I love the fact that you watched an extra episode! Thank you—what a treat! When I saw this episode for the very first time, it seemed obvious to me that Ponytail Six was actually pretending to be Starbuck! You’re the first reactor I’ve seen who saw that right away too—I feel vindicated! Finally, the vision of Earth and the constellations seen in the Tomb of Athena—I’m convinced that was either a group vision or a hologram of some kind—they weren’t REALLY on Earth. And now they know that the true test of finding and verifying Earth is that all the 12 constellations have to look exactly that way from Earth’s position.

kaliwali

That makes sense! So more of like a hologram than them actually being sent there for a second.

kaliwali

Never apologize for long posts! You listen to my looooong rants and maybe read my own synopsis on each episode so no worries at all. I love hearing everyone's thoughts as I move through this show with you all! Thank you for sharing!!

The Dingo

So I thought I had watched the first 3 seasons. Turns out I only watch the 1st season and like 2 episodes of the second LOL

Farbod

I actually prefer 2 parters done this way. Fantastic reaction as always.

MertzRocks

Just a nitpicking tidbit: There were only 49 ships in the fleet before Astral Queen and the others jumped away to Kobol, so not, "almost a third of the fleet," but almost exactly half. Even though this number is revealed (to those who look closely) near the end of the season, it's not actually a spoiler. It also jibes better with the numbers cited in the miniseries: At one point there were 'almost 60' ships in the first convoy, but some did not have FTL drives.

MertzRocks

Call it some kind of VR tech, perhaps 'of the gods' if you like, but yes, they were still in the same chamber; they hadn't physically moved. I want to say more but I don't do spoilers...
