Battlestar Galactica Crossroads, Part II

Okay, does anyone else feel like that climax was someone's drug induced "brilliant" idea? Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower"? Really? That finale frakin' sucked, sorry. The scene in the courtroom was great. The business with Tyrol, Tigh, Tory and Anders hearing the song was HOKEY. "Oh, we all hear the song, we must be Cylons. But we're going to do our jobs because these humans are to be protected." What?!? What qualities did these characters ever have to merit their being Cylons? The writers were all sitting around high as kites one day and decided, "Dude, you know what would be really cool? If a bunch of characters heard this song and it was All Along the Watchtower and then they figured they must be Cylons, but still want to save the fleet...Oh, and Kara comes back ready to lead the fleet to Earth." TA-DA. Totally disappointed. It felt like the last ten minutes were part of a music video. I think they could have done better. It was like the writers ran out of steam. BSG bit the big one on that finale.
