Watching in three weeks was a weird phenomenon... much like watching a huge epic movie all at once. If you've never done that for a series, try it sometime. It's amazing! (I did the same with Rome. You have to have the kind of friends who will support the behavior so you don't get spoilers midway. My friends were great!)
After I finished the entire BSG, I turned right around and bought the complete series (with the little cylon action figure that now sits on my desk and inspires me to write my next chapters, even when I'm tired). I can empathize with the picking things apart idea. When I was rewriting the "Kara returns" scene, I kept re-watching and re-watching the 30 second clip of the hug where Lee says SOMETHING that inspires Kara to respond "Okay, okay, me too". Funny, I think I spent two hours fixated on those 30 seconds... but I love my lines even though I had to guess on Lee's. (And you'll have to read more to find out what I guessed he said :)
