That's ok; just wanted to get it out there before I saw the rest so the comments would be more honest. Netflix should be sending me the start of season 4 today.
Something that's kind of starting to bug me is the show's treatment of religion. At first it seemed like they were going to do something original and honest with it. The colonists' religion inspired them to search for Earth and kept them going when things got tough, but it also looked like misplaced faith and credulously mistaking drug-induced hallucinations for visions was going to lead to bad decisions and failures of leadership. And of course there was the dissonance caused by the fact that the character spouting the familiar-sounding religious platitudes was the evil cylon Baltar sees in his head. Then Cavil showed up and gave Tyrol what sounded like some awfully sensible advice--prayer doesn't work, the gods won't do anything for you that you won't do for yourself, etc. After I got over my shock, my first thought was "bet this guy turns out to be a cylon". And what do you know, not only is that the case, but it looks like the Cavils are going to be on the wrong side of the rift that's forming, and it increasingly appears that the religious angle in general is going to be played straight. The visions were real, Baltar will repent of his Hollywood atheism, head 6 was good all along and telling the plain truth; no tricks, no irony. Oh well; maybe some day.
ETA: Here's something people should be able to respond to without spoilers. Excluding 4 (which I haven't seen), does anyone else feel that season 3 was the weakest? It got off to an interesting start; I was actually expecting most or all of the season to be occupied with the insurgency on and escape from New Caprica and thought that would be a pretty neat twist. But that subplot ended after only a couple of episodes, and the show seemed to lose its way after that. There were a number of throwaway episodes that didn't really add to the larger plot or even to the general ambiance, and the reveals they did give us just weren't that interesting (IMO). It was also kind of annoying to spend so much time wondering about "the final 5", and then have 4 of them handed to you in one shot (assuming that is in fact what the events in the last episode meant), and they may have even given us all 5 depending on what we're supposed to conclude from the events of the final 10 seconds.
