My take on it is as follows:
- That clearly was atomic dirt in Adama's fist.
- Now they're frakked hardcore.
- I'm willing to bet it was the other Cylons who done it, as revenge for the Hub
- The frakkers just HAD to ruin Roslin/Adama and the happy ending -- the writers are good, they almost lost me on New Caprica, just about lost me in the Temple of Five, really did lose me after Starbuck died (took me six months to watch the last three episodes of S3, and then only because my wife asked me if I'd taped it), and only just now got me back. They're SERIOUSLY frakking with me and I'm sorta bitter and resentful that they can't just tell the story, they have to tell the bitter and resentful story. Like, would it seriously kill them to let things go pleasantly and quietly instead of inserting another frakking cliffhanger? They know they have the audience. Why not make the last set of episodes about "now what" WITH a nice, fresh, healthy Earth, instead of "now what" without it?
All told, I was really, really happy --dancing just like Lee Adama, only on my coffee table instead-- and they just couldn't help but deliver one last kick below the belt. They shot the Old Man and I kept watching. They went 'one year later' and I never missed an episode --or a webisode, for that matter. They killed Ellen and Kat, Cally and Cain --and Starbuck. And now they killed Earth.
I don't know, this one's a step too far for my liking. With any luck, Admiral Janeway will pop in via temporal shuttlecraft implausibility, turn out to be the fifth of the Final Five, and take Voyager ---er, I mean, the Fleet--- home again. At this point, I'm not sure I care enough to find out.
