2. I still cannot believe that it is going to be over tonight

According to what I have read...

Erin Fox of TV Guide.com, who attended Monday’s screening of the "Battlestar Galactica" finale at the upfronts in New York, says this:

"The first hour-and-a-half of the finale is so intense, you'll find it difficult to breathe. So many questions will be answered — including some you probably thought wouldn't be addressed due to time constraints."

3. I did watch "The Last Frakkin' Special"

with glimpses of scenes....

Frak, I just might have to tell our relatives to chill for a few....

I even got the wife hooked and she's as excited and bummed as I am.

4. There's word that the finale runs 11 minutes over two hours, so DVR folks should adjust settings.

I don't watch much episodic TV. I initially thought "Battlestar Galactica?" oh jeez,remembering the original series. Then when I read of the critical acclaim after the first year...I was curious and watched an episode. Wow. BSG had me on for the ride.

LA Times has a great review of the finale: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/la-et-battlestar20-2009mar20,0,4379589.story
