bsg was wierd because the showrunner forgot about the series, and wanted on the ill fated caprica, plus him being a mormon made the whole show wierd, because he wanted a GOD-centric(think any other shows with angels/demons/god related material) ending to the show. the og series never had that kind of crap.
i ignore the non-canon novels. according to an interview with the writers/showrunners, sga was suppose to have a big bad in season 6, one of the advanced races that have been hiding from the wraith that wier mentioned while stuck in “ghost in the machine”, one of them being the aliens in the deadalus variation that looks like the “borg/wraith” hybrid and that ship. Some of them did go on starget subreddit and comment occasionally though.
SGU was more recent, so they went on that sub, and said the 3rd season was going to have goodies, like the race that created the drones, apparently the writers were alluding it to the novus colonies that did it, so humans. plus the planet builder ALIENS were going to have more lore in it too.
If a show tells you it’s building to something, then fails to deliver, it has disrespected all the time and effort invested.

Lost
Battlestar Galactica
How I Met Your Mother

The OG series was also a Mormon analog.

I personally, just ignore the ending, and appreciate the amazing time I had leading up to it. xD
Or when it ends on a cliffhanger just to get canceled. That really ruins how I feel about a show.
both sga and sgu were cliffhangers, sad.
I’m still super salty about SGU, that show was just starting to find itself when they cancelled it.
