Really? I didn't think so. I mean what was that crap that Starbuck was telling Kat to "Be herself"...followed by frenzied self-sacrifice and sex? Ridiculous scripting. And the whole bit about her being a smuggler...why was that relevant? It was like they changed gears halfway through the cript writing session, and rather than develop her character they killed her.

If you know anyone who has undergone radiation therapy....they ain't so much into a frenzy of ANYTHING afterwards.

I just stumbled on this thread..


Wow.. I didn't realize that there were this many people on here who liked this show. Now I don't feel like such a geek.


While reading all 31 pages, I realize how accurate some of the plot guesses were, and how far off others were.


My .02...

It seems to me that the writers are following a very stretched out copy of the original series. Look for Starbuck to go off on a "recon" mission, and lose the viper to a lowlife.

Is the 'Eye of Jupiter' thing obvious to anyone else?

Will Athena defect?

Does the 'Temple of Five' = The Final Five?

It seems they are going to have to finally answer the Baltar/Cylon thing very soon...

Yes, it is obvious. Pretty god episode nonetheless althogh I think the pre-views were a bit too revealing of the conclusion.

According to Wiki, the next episode..." is also the last episode to feature actress Lucy Lawless as humanoid cylon (2003) D'anna Biers."

No source is given for this statement. There appear to be Three's on at least one base star as well as resurrection ships. Hard to imagine they'll ALL get toasted.

That said, the TV commercials claim that "one will die, one will find earth and one will learn they are a cylon."

Maybe there is a limit to the number of times a Cylon can be reborn?

They could shelve the whole model if it proves problematic.

They already won. The cylons are just trying to clean up the loose ends.

Ok - the trailers for the start of Season 3.5 keep stating:
1. One will die
2. One will be revealed as a cylon.

So it looks like D'ana will possibly die.

But who will be revealed as a cylon?

Baltar? They did show him waking up in the resurrection tank thing in some of the trailers, but I think that's part of D'ana's near-death dreams. But I still doubt that would happen - he is a human. More evidence to that is that he didn't get infected by the virus that inflicted the base ship (ref: Season 3.0).

I would also rule out: Adama, Helo, and the Chief - they have all had children, and according to the series, male cylons cannot impregnate females.

Starbuck and Apollo - cylons? No way - that would kill the show.

Colonel Tigh? Possible, but not likely. Again, it would ruin the show.

Maybe Anders or Dualla. Or, maybe Tigh's wife will turn out to be a cylon. That would work for me...

-Z-man.

How do you come to that conclusion?

The only clue I saw was when D'Ana said, "Forgive me - I didn't know you were..." when she had that vision.

BTW: Was Brother Cavil a vision of D'Ana's on the planet, or was he really there?

Definately off to a terrific start!

Starbuck, a Cylon?

It does seem to fit the "all the hot chics are cyclons" model, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.
