I thought the ending was a nice nod to the original series.
Larson made it clear from the begining that the intent was for the 12 Colonies to be a human pre-historic civilization. (Never mind the mess that was Galactica 80).
The rest, about the cylons and the plan...?
(shrug)

It was a fun ride.
That alone justifies its existence.

(It also redeemed the original Galactica for me; I found it a most infuriating series. Each episode opened with a great, promising premise...that they proceeded to run into the ground with generic 70's Hollywood writing. )
