Overall, I'm fairly satisfied with the ending. It could only live up to expectations if the writers came up with a 'meaning to life answer' that everyone agreed on, which is impossible. They answered enough questions to stop me from throwing my TV out the window, but left enough unanswered to keep my mind working on a solution that will never come.
The whole 'agents of God' working on it's universal experiment over millions of years was the most enjoyment I received from the second hour (nothing could out do the first hour's battle), but it still left me wondering what an omniscient being would hope to gain from it all. The 20 minutes spent wrapping things up on 'new Earth' was a little too touchy feely for me and Starbuck disappearing was a bit of a letdown.
The final remarks between the invisible Six and Baltar still have me thinking though. When Baltar refers to God, the Six says "you know it doesn't like to be called that" Baltar pauses, gives her a knowing look/smile and says "silly me, silly silly me". Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but any theories as to what his last statement might indicate?
