On a lighter note... BSG

[cantdrv55]

I missed the first couple of shows (before I got Tivo), I think. Is it out on DVD yet? Are there three Sharons? Is one of them human, which one?

All of the Boomers (aka Sharons) are cylons.

Not sure about DVD, but I don't think so.

Any thoughts?

Suicidal cylons has got to be the oddest idea ever, behind having them believe in God and falling in love.

I agree, great show. Looking forward to Friday.

Anyone know if Friday's episode of SG Atlantis was 1 or 2 hours? My TiVo cut off unexpectedly at 1 hour, and we don't know if we missed anything.

Meanwhile on Cylon occupied Caprica...

She's a "weak" model, remember ? Pretty cool idea, I thought, and I would not be surprised if the caprica version was indeed pregnant ! After all if they can mimic humans in tests, why not fully ?

I love the "Kobol" mythology thing... Greek gods being used as a link to Earth, that is a pretty cool idea !

I'll be majorly bummed if we don't get to see the story arc through ! (all the way to earth)

She's a "weak" model...

Weak, Hot... whatever it takes.

I hadn't considered that she may be pregnant! Which is said, considering they all but offered the idea on a silver platter with her "morning sickness"!

She did yack that one episode and was showing signs. It would be an interesting twist,,,,

Another thing I've been wondering about...

If the cylons memories or "souls" are somehow connected... Did Helo rejecting and then shooting Boomer on Cylon-Occupied Caprica have anything to do with Boomer on Galatica shooting herself?

I really need a life.

How would you like this as a twist...........the Doctor is a clone or a Cylon of somekind.

See when Caprica was nuked, number 6 (the hot blonde) told him to turn away from the blast - and all the glass blew into the house.

I think they both died right there!

She had her data wireless modemed back to be re-cloned.

While the doctor's memory had been back-filled somehow, perhaps when they were having sex (why would her spine glow red?).

The number 6/hot blond image was placed in the new body & mind of the doctor because he does not know he is a hybrid Cylon.

The Cylons can give orders to the clones on the ship from far away (to plant bombs), why not also send on going images to the doctor too?

He is easily controled won't you say?

That's another of the great BSG mysteries that keeps me up at night!

The cloning idea is an interesting one. I started the show thinking all the human like cylons were just specific models to perform specific functions/tasks (i.e. #6 for seduction). But, considering the technology, making clones of real people really shouldn't be hard. Who knows...

I had thought he might be a Cylon, but that would have been too easy to predict, so I don't know. We will have to see how this next episode plays out. Do you think the "Boomer" on Galatica will use a nuke on the big Cylon ship? She seems to have a conciense of some sort.

What if they can learn and change (meaning the Cylon clones ofcourse)?

I think they've already shown us they can change. Boomer on Caprica running away with Helo, hiding from the cylons who were hunting them...

What I'm wondering is if some of the cylons will actually turn sides and fight the cylons???

While the doctor's memory had been back-filled somehow, perhaps when they were having sex (why would her spine glow red?).

I kind of thought that was the cylon equivalent of an orgasm can on say that on here??? . But, I may just have a dirty mind.

Any predictions for tonight's episode?

HUH??? EXPLAIN MAN!!!

... but don't give anything away!

The whole series was released 6 months ago in England. All of it is available for download on the web if you know where to look and are patient (the usual bit-torrent sites). A friend of mine has it all on hard drive in hi-definition no less!!!

Not much sense in downloading it now that it's over tonight, but...

For the first time, I was disappointed with last Friday's episode. It was because of that inconsistent, illogical action by Starbuck.

The series has built up her relationship with Adama to the point where she is basically his daughter (in law), and he is kind of her father. There's deep respect and trust.

Then suddenly, she's running off to Caprica in the Cylon raider against his orders, just because Roslyn had a vision. There wasn't any existing relationship between Starbuck and Roslyn, was there? There hasn't been any indication that Starbuck is ultra-religious either. What was so convincing that she was willing to throw out her relationship with Adama?

Oh well, still a great show.

[Deschodt]

There was some degree of warning because of the episode where starbuck confronts the cylon prisonner, uses her religious artifacts etc... I bet Adama forgives her when she returns with the key to the directions to earth !

I think I remember some mention of her being religious beliefs... but you're right, not ultra religious.

I figured her finding out that Adama had lied about the one piece of hope they had (i.e. the way to earth) is what did it to Starbuck. And, she's not exactly super normal... she has issues.

Deschodt- I had no idea.

For the TiVo folks that haven't watched yet, I will not give anything away...

Just watched the season finale...

HOLY CRAP! I nearly jumped off the couch. Never saw THAT coming!

Now patientally waiting for July and the new season.

Yeah, I hope that does not spell the end of either of the 2 characters that are involved in the surprise ending!. Like'em both, though the female one seems to be in trouble on both fronts ;-) (tough to say anything without it being a spoiler)
