TV review – “Battlestar Galactica: Season 4 – Part 1” *****

The standards of this series remains amazingly high. Occasionally it gets a bit waffly – I’m not a big fan of the religious stuff being genuine – but its compensated by terrific plot twists: the outbreak of civil war amongst the Cylons, the shocking death of Callie; the emerge of Baltar as a cult leader; the discovery of Earth. Anders still gets on my goat and some scenes are flat – like Tigh revealing to Adama he’s a Cylon. The special effects remain superb as always.
