Battlestar Galactica - no thread from this past Friday? (Spoilers)
Interesting episode with the cylons voting to abandon the humans... then, six losing the baby? Not surprised to see Tigh sticking around and telling the other cylons to shove it.

Gaius seemed to have snapped ranting about getting bigger & better guns to fight the Sons of Aries.

4. I need to rewatch the last episode
I'm normally fading around 10pm on a Friday night, so it's not all entirely clear to me.

5. I kept falling asleep... poor hubby had to replay it for me last night...
he looked over, at one point, and said "OH NO!" But I quickly opened my eyes and made it through. lol The sound of the engines, of the spaceship, puts me to sleep. I used to have that problem when I watched Star Trek, too!

3. they already had the fake daughter
from the cylon occupation - I think a fake son would be too much.

8. Did you catch what Starbuck said in the bar?
Edited on Sun Feb-22-09 03:50 PM by WolverineDG
Re: the piano & her response to Tigh & Ellen kissing when they first saw each other? I think some of our speculatin' is dead on....

And as for Sam going braindead until Caprica's baby died ( :cry: )---another form of resurrection/reincarnation? :o

And did you see the end credits where EJO comes & boxes one of the guys for his paycheck? :rofl:

10. I also caught that, if you take it literally

11. there's speculation all over the map
from the artist cylon's daughter, to being Tigh & Ellen's daughter, to being that cylon himself (becoming female because of all the messing around Cavil did with the resurrection goo.....it's anyone's guess now & hopefully it will be sorted out next week. :)

12. interesting
I think I'm going to hold off on any major speculating because either I've been so wrong before... or else, I've speculated so many possibilities, that I can later tell everybody that I predicted what was coming.

9. It was nice to see that Ellen Tigh reverted to form from last week.
It's frightening that someone that manipulative has a brain.

14. 4 episodes to go
I see 3 major plot issues that remain to be resolved: the nature of Starbuck, the human/cylon alliance going forward, and the discovery of a planet to inhabit.

15. I can't decide if I hate Gaius or love him
He is the best nihilist character I've seen in tv.

17. I think the role is very interesting
But, I find little to like about the character of Baltar.

19. James Callis is a FANTASTIC actor
One of my favorites. I fell for him hook, line, and sinker when he played another (semi-)slimy conniver in the Brit miniseries Sex, Chips & Rock 'n' Roll. :loveya:

16. There had better be some shit getting fucked up this week
It's one thing to have a character that you don't like, it's another to have a character that you don't like even when you know you're not supposed to like them, and don't even like the actor playing that character.

18. We learned an important lesson
If you are good and share what you have with others, the one god of the Cylons will reward you with superior firepower.

20. I never really bought into Baltar's conversion
I think he saw it as a good way to use people and get laid.
