Science fiction is one of the easiest genres to create, but the hardest to perfect. Ronald D. Moore is an elite sci-fi TV mind behind Star Trek (TNG, DS9, & Voyager) and Roswell, but stamps his name in the sci-fi history books with BSG.
Starting with a three hour miniseries, BSG would become one of the ultimate sci-fi stories of all time. In short, humans created Cylons (robots) who revolted, resulting in war, and after a 40 year armistice come back to destroy the human race. Although the idea of technology coming back to haunt the creator has been done before, none create a world in which it truly matters the way this show does.
Besides a few episodes when the Sci-Fi Channel changed the episodic format, the show has been solid from the start. Characters that draw you in, plots eerily relevant in a world ever affected by technology, and plot development continuing to raise the bar push this show to the top of the all time greats of the genre.
