“For the end of this science fiction show let’s throw in a very thinly veiled Christian allegory for no reason other than it’s what I want.”
Yeah, “meh” doesn’t even begin to cover how disappointingly bad the ending was. Absolutely skip it, make up your own head canon ending because you can’t possibly do worse than the actual one.
@db2@Shadow do you recall/DYK that the original old 80s run was supposed to be an allegory for the books of mormon, written and funded entirely by mormons…
Exactly. Referring to the main star as “Kobol” which is a very obvious reference to Kolob (which is the star closest to where God resides), the 12 planets instead of the 12 tribes of Israel, being forced to flee their homes to go to a promised land, an IL-Cylon named Lucifer.
