Well if you think about it . . especially in the early seasons . . they keep dropping these hints that just don't seem to make any sense. And between the confusion there are some pretty good character stuff, but the actual plot is unclear in a bad way. [Okay Lost does add another layer of confusion with all the flashback stuff, but I think over all the analogy still works.]
Yes refuges try to find Earth and Cylons go after them, it's a simple plot, but they try to twist it with stuff like Cylons believing in God and this goofy survivors on Caprica / Arrow of Athena subplot. I'm all for plot twits, but I like them to be understandable.
Galactica to Babylon 5. B5 had loads of plot twists, but they made sense. You could follow a thread from episode to episode. The twists weren't quite so weird that you can't understand them either. Add to that that B5 actually had an over all episode story that dominated the episode. But in Galactica the twists seem to be half (or all) of any given episode. I loved 1.05: You Can't Go Home Again, but close to half the episode was mindless crud about the Cylon in Baltar's head and Caprica.
Now maybe it will come to an end, but I wonder if all the confusing stuff will make sense in the end.
