Battlestar Galactica's originality and vision has changed science fiction television forever, but tonight it comes to an end. Tell your fellow io9ers what you think of the finale as it happens. Spoilers ahead!

I don't have very high hopes for the episode after reading Charlie Jane's BSG spoilerfest this morning, but I'm still excited and mournful and wishing the show could continue on a weekly basis.

I've invited my usual posse of civil liberties nerds, hackers, and writers over to share the pain (and some Frak Paks) with me tonight, and I'll be joining you guys in comments when the show stars airing at 9 PM PST. Raise a toast, join me in comments, and say farewell to the old girl and the old man. So say we all!
