If you were going to build a race of "Super-Humans", wouldn't you build super sexy women?

What is up with the men, though? Are they designed to look non-threatening?

I don't think Starbuck is a cylon - when she was captured on Caprica, we would have seen her treated differently.

It is someone we've seen Dianna have direct interaction with. Didn't she say something like: "If only I'd known--I'm so sorry."

Yes, could be a lot of people.

What's up with all the soap opera wife cheating stuff? That's not why I watch the show.

I agree Kach, while the episode was good, the previews for next week looked kinda lame. Although the storyline with Starbuck and the painting could be good...

They want you to think it is Baltar....remember Dianna tortured Baltar. Of course that means Baltar ISN'T a cylon. A bit of reverse psychology I think.

I think next week's episode will be a "filler" episode unfortunately.

I think it makes sense that Starbuck might be a Cylon; I was thinking that too.

Bulldog. Although he only signed up for one episode. But if anyone had direct contact with D'Anna it was him - remember his flashback to being on the Cylon baseship - and D'Anna rattling his cage?

I could see that Z-man. I was kinda hoping it would be a more substantial character.

The only characters that Dianna has directly treated badly that I can think of are Baltar and Bulldog.

This "remaining five" thing has me wondering if these Cylons are benevolent. Why did the 13th tribe create a "Temple of the Five" thousands of years before Cylons were created?

Did anyone just see next week's preview where Baltar wakes up in the goo bath that Cylon wakes up in?

Yep, just saw that.

It's probably a dream.

The previews would never intentionally mislead us.

Entirely possible it was Bulldog. Remember when he was on the Black Ops mission across the Armistice Line? Two "unknown" ships jumped in, then quickly jumped away. . . Possibly (likely) Cylon. How would they know he was there? Projection? Some sort of connection?

Deeper it goes. . .

My wife and I never watch the previews. We don't need to be enticed to watch the show and, more importantly, they spoil too much.

Sci_fi, very much like porn. Usually you will see good looking females and not so good looking males.

I guess you just gotta figure who their fan base is. 90% 35 year olds, still living at home and over weight.

Ahhh, I give the creators props for giving guys like myself false hope of getting with a chick that hot.

Baltar said he is not a Cylon.

Do we believe him?

Okay Pelicans, here is a promo pic of our favorite 3 and the Final Five. Crank up your copies of Photoshop and do your best to figure out the faces! Anybody have access to any NSA image enhancement technology? I absolutely MUST know if I am a cylon.

http://pics.livejournal.com/drewcypher/pic/000t5fg5

Oh yeah, and don't assume the 3's are done forever. You KNOW somebody is going to "unbox" them some day if the show lasts long enough. And boy oh boy are the 3's gonna be PISSED!
