OMG, I am loving this show!!!!

Judge... time to DL it.

I wonder how many guest appearances Lucy Lawless is going to make....

Doc Cottle rulz!1111!!11!! He is starting to replace Doctor McCoy as my most favorite SciFi doc ever.....

I am surprised that there has been nothing else about the upcoming elections so far....

Why am I getting "King Arthur" feelings for this cylon child?

I am writing this as I am watching the episode....

I am wondering if 'Caprica Six' & Sharon Valerii are going to join the resistance? Abandon the Cylons?

Love the cut outs to the resistance.... very glad they are bringing them back...

a little nod to Stalag 17 with the old cigarette timer trick? (will have to dl the podcast)

Adama cracks me up... 'If it is good for the them, it's bad for us'

The Six-Baltar two way street is great.... his commentary to her when her & Sharon are talking have me rolling!

Once thing.... it has been nearly a year since the destruction of the colonies.... who is still producing cigarettes?!?!?!?!?

Anyone notice the 3 headlights on the car?

Jeez... Rosyln is becoming a biatch!

Anders, Anders, Anders.... a catalyst

Anders trapped with 3 hotties.... under different circumstances that would be awesome.

This show is AWESOME!!!

That would be so cool - and it seems likely (somehow). Will they work from within the Cylons, or join the direct opposition. Will be cool to see how they work this out....

Yeah - the occupants of that garage were cool old cars. The 3 headlighted car was a Citroen from at least the early 70's if not 60's.

My wife got me the Pilot and Season 1 DVD's - I watched them all over this past week. Really is the best Drama on TV!

There is only one little itsy bitsy part of that episode I didn't like. When Sharon reaches in and touches the "dead cyclon baby", she couldn't tell the difference? And its gone from being a premature needing an oxygen tent to wrapped in swaddling clothes and out and about?

I think I've crossed the line from just outright enjoyment to catching plot flaws. I must be getting old and cranky.

I felt that they didnt explain the motivation to keep the Cylon baby alive, vice shooting it out the airlock.

- All of the viable points went to terminating the baby-Cylon.

- What will happen with this baby-Cylon is by definition unpredictable

- Adama is right.. "If the Cylons want it, it's bad for us."

- The Cylon baby will become a factor later on.

- Everyone thinks they killed it, so dealing with the reaction remains. For the trouble that their chosen course of action will cause, they should have gotten the benefits as well. Now they have problems with both. Boomer will certainly flip out, and she knows how to beguile, then hurt them.

So with all that said, I think they should have spent more time showing why Rosalyn chose the way she did.

I think that down the road, Doc Cottle will (un?)intentionally let Boomer or Helo know that the child is alive...

Also, I would say that the reason for faking the baby's 'death' is a legitmate reason.

The Cylons have gone to a LOT of trouble to do this... What do they want from the mating?

From a purely villianous, clinical, detached point of view......the cyborg(can you get any closer to the definition of cyborg than this kid?--half human, half machine) has this deal with her blood that's worth keeping her around. At least they gave her to a family instead of locking her up somewhere and putting needles in her.....

I'm starting to get a real River Tam vibe about the cylon baby, anyway.

I loved the expression of utter distaste and dissatisfaction on Cottle's face with Roslyn is telling him the deceoption was a 'good thing'. The Doc is rapidly becoming my favorite character, much more fiercely moral, in his own cranky way, than almost anyone else on the series.

Best show on TV? Hmmm, "24" gives it a run in that department, though I will say that comparing the latest entries from both shows, Galactica wins hands down, especially with Baltar getting into Six's head.

Hell I'm still watching Re-runs of that Red Curry Dwarf thingie show. Best stuff I've seen in awhile.

I finally got to see this episode and nearly fell out of my chair when Baltar showed up at Six's awakening party. Holy Fracking Cylon Goo that was unbelievably wonderful to see. The diametric opposition of the two real and two imaginary characters is quite wonderful. Lucy Lawless did a wonderful job as a devout Cylon while Tricia Hefer and Grace Park showed just how capable they are as actors. Seeing Starbuck's beau was nice, and I look forward to seeing him in even more episodes.

Doc Cottle really is the moral center of the show in a lot of ways no other character can match. I'd have just ditched the baby out of the airlock, but then I'm not as kind-hearted as the rest of them are...

This episode delivers on just about everything one could want from a sci-fi episode...They cylon centurion going to pick up that cigarrette was just spectacular graphically...

Excerpt from the Raptor operators manual:

"5.41. Continued flight following an interstellar jump which terminates inside a mountain is not recommended."

I thought the episode was a little slow, but maybe because they are setting up for the following episode, the season finale.

...and my wife thinks that the priest (Dean Stockwell) is a Cylon. Paranoia will destroy ya...

Rat Boy · « **Reply #112 on:** March 04, 2006, 11:52:44 am »

Happened to catch part of it last night and I was struck by a couple things: 1.) how the election seems like a parrallel to the 2004 election, with Roslin as Bush and Baltar, as, well, someone the liberals would not doubt take exception to being likened to, being how he's in bed with the enemy and all that & 2.) how much Richard Hatch's character resembled a calmer, Just For Men using Howard Dean in that getup he was wearing.

Stockwell just gets better with age.

He must have been happy to do an entire episode and not hear "Oh Boy".

TheJudge · « **Reply #116 on:** March 07, 2006, 12:35:36 am »

First off...Javora I love that sig. Recently ordered a license plate for my motorcycle that says "Frell U"

This episode was a good one with a little bit of everything in it to make things nice. I for one am thinking that Baltar's days are numbered. First of all, Roslyn remembers seeing him kissing #6 on Caprica and must strongly suspect he let the Cylons into the defense grid. More than likely, Anders & Co. got info out of that revived Six and Boomer that Baltar did indeed betray the colonies...so what we'll see in the end is Baltar elected President, revealed as the great betrayer, he runs from the fleet and assumes the mantle as a Cylon Leader while Zarek assumes the Presidency or at least tries to while Adama(s) backs Roslyn retaking the office.

Meanwhile...I like the short glimpse of Lee Adama as Commander so far. He was easy going, friendly, yet still in-charge and did you also notice that it was his ship on which the briefing for the rescue mission was given, and from which it was launched? You know he probably had a heck of a lot to do with it getting the 'go' from his father.

first let me say i signed up for iTunes and have d/l episodes 11 through 19 of the second season. just gotta find a new place to live since i spent my rent money on BSG episodes.

I am glad that the lords of kobol haven't nixxed the pegasus like the did in the original series...but then again it is supposed to die and this one deserves a bloody bloody end.

IIRC, Glen Larson was planning on having the Peggy survive its battle with 2 Basestars to reappear later on.... unfortunately, the cancelling of the show sort of nixed that....

It was pointed out when discussion of what was found on the planet of Count Iblis was thought to have been the wreckage of the Peggy. (why some people think Apollo told Sheba not to look in the wreckage)

So having the Peggy hanging around isn't all that far fetched.
