Although I loved Battlestar Galactica, and I think the show deserved more awards than it got, I have to say, the ending of the series kind of left me feeling weird about the series. So… when BSG only ended up with 5 nominations in not-so-great categories, I haven’t found myself as disappointed as I might have been and that’s very sad.
Still, the show got 5 nominations—and that’s 5 more nominations than Stargate Atlantis, Eureka, or Dollhouse received! Read on for details.
