BSG-related post,of course

So,I just went back and checked out some of my old BSG posts,and I realized that I hadn't written any kind of review/opinion on 'Revelations'...
But I never explained why I didn't.I will now!

The thing is,a couple of days before the episode aired,a fellow student from my University(who also happens to be the only crazy-like-me BSG fan I know) came up to me all excited and revealed some pretty big spoilers about the episode.Basically,he said something along the lines of "They find earth and it is an abandoned,ugly place with ruins!!".
Meh.Of course,the moron ruined half the excitement for me...I mean,the episode was great,and it probably is the best,most complete one of Season 4(I even wrote that opinion somewhere,I think).And the writing was as good as ever,and the acting was probably the best the cast did all season(apart from Mary and Hogan,who have been consistently stellar for a while).But it still didn't have the impact on me that it would if I didn't know that stuff.
I think,the finale of S4 is,in a way,like that of S2.I remember,upon rewatch,i didn't go all crazy about 'Lay Down Your Burdens' like I did the first time around('cause I never saw that coming):OMG!!WTF!!Fast-forward!OMG!!Who's the fat guy? That was the original first impression that never showed up again.I think I missed that kind of thing when I watched 'Revelations'...

Which is also probably the reason I love 'Crossroads II' so much.No matter how many times I watch it,no matter if I know very well what happens,who is a Cylon,who comes back from the dead(yay!!),what's the end of Baltar's trial etc,I still feel completely hooked and all excited about it  *sigh*.

 Here's to the hope that no one spoils me this year!

This neighborhood is,for all of us,a cage.
Nobody lives the way he'd want to live...because the DREAM is just one tiny moment.
And all the other moments...DESPAIR.
