I don't mind at all. I'm definitely not one of those "you must agree with me on everything or else" types, and you have good thoughts, so I wanna here 'em!
I understand how you feel about the lack of a masterplan. It so strange that in some places they brought back elements from earlier in the season and previous seasons all the way back to miniseries, but other things are forgotten or unexplained. For the most part, I liked what we did get, but some of the dropped threads do make the writers seem a bit capricious.
I watched a replay on Sci-Fi the other night and wondered where Leoben got to at one point. I think at some point they decided Leoben really didn't have anything to do with Kara's destiny, so he wasn't important anymore. D'Anna actually is gone, but it's easy to miss. I forgot that at the beginning of 4.5 she decides to stay on nuked Earth, and she was the only Three still living.
I liked Baltar and Six, and I liked the Agathons, mainly cause I was happy Helo didn't die! I didn't like that Laura died, but I think she had to because that's where her story's been going since day one, and they did her final scenes really well. Lee and Kara... complete lack of closure, and I'm still wrestling between trying to accept and make sense of it because it's canon and just wishing it went differently.
Out of curiosity, what do think would have been a satisfying ending for the various characters? I guess that could be personal wish fulfillment or narrative fulfillment.
