Regarding the 'x-ray' stuff - it turns out the the cylons are oranic in nature, and only when you get to an autopsy can you tell the difference. As such, Boltar has created a device that can determine if a person is a cylon or not. He needed to use a nuclear warhead to create it.
Yeah, but don't forget, he has the test/detector, but doesn't use it. He knew Boomer was a Cylon, but didn't tell anyone. We also don't know if Col. Tigh's wife passed or failed the test. Only Baltar knows...

It's funny... Sometimes I'm POSITIVE that he's just weak and "mad". Other times he's implanted or an actual Cylon with Boomer-like "programing" (that keeps the truth hidden from himself). A true mystery that keeps me guessing...

Some didn't like the fact that Starbuck and Boomer are women in the new series. I like it:
I don't mind. Boomer is NOT hard to look at. And, for some reason, Starbuck is weirdly attractive to me, in a way I can't explain. Something about her smile...

The whole show is simply incredible. The acting is superb. The character development "right on". The special affects and cinematography give the show an incredible sense of realism.

I LOVE the space shots/scenes... The lack of sound and the way they zoom in from far away really gives a unique representation of the expanse of space.

It's taken my #1 spot (previously held by 24) as best show on TV.

I listened to some of the director's commentary from the BSG web-site. It sounded like he didn't know where the show "will go" next season, as far as story line/plot. It was also weird hearing him talk about other "ideas" for ending the finale that they didn't do, but would have changed the ending in drastic ways. Listening to him, he almost gave a sense that the story had a life of it's own.

July is long away.
