Battlestar Galactica - Final 10 episodes

[Philip Hughes Fan]

I figure there's got to be some other fans of this show that can't wait for Friday night. It sounds like we'll finally find out who the final Cylon is in this episode too.

[Sam18]

Oh Gods yessss

[bigwampum]

Woo!

It's going to be very tough to out the final cylon without making it incredibly cheesy. Also, I expect them to drag it out as long as possible. I'm anxious to see what happens on the charred husk of Earth.

[yankeesAZ]

Best show on TV, bar none.

Anyone watch the 10-part "webisode" on the site? They did not fool around there with that one. I was expecting a bunch of cutting room floor stuff, but they revealed some good stuff.

The Caprica preview looks very good also.

BSG, Lost and 24...January rocks

[bcom33]

I got into the show late, like only a few months ago but caught all the way up. I'm not sure how it's going to end, but the show has been great up until now.

[Philip Hughes Fan]

So I guess before tonight's episode airs, I'll post my official guess of Laura Roslin as the final cylon. Re-watching season 3 finale, as soon as they get to the nebula and the other 4 realize what they are, she has a headache/vision, and I think that the other 2 having the same visions are cylons is a bit of a clue too.

Also, the last cylon needs to be a big deal and really upset people, which is why I don't think it would be someone like Gaeta or Dee.

I also think Gaius is about ruled out as one of the "visions" of the Opera House shows him and Six with Hera looking up and the final 5 staring down at them.

I kind of wish I'd watched this show previously. Looks like it'll be another one I watch on DVD over a period of many months...

If you don't have Netflix, get it. I moved this summer and had nothing to do for a while, so I picked up this show after hearing good things and couldn't stop watching it each time a new disc came in the mail. I'm pretty dorky but have never been into science fiction shows before, but this is pretty close to my favorite show of any genre of all time.

[Sam18]

Anyone catch the "10 things you need to know about BSG" this morning on sci fi? Twas a good recap.

Here's a recap of seasons 1-3 made by the folks at sci fi. If you're new and wanna watch tonight then this will give you a good idea where things are: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9Naffrc_kY

Hell, if you're merely "pretty dorky" and love the show, then I should be all over this. I'll add it to my queue.

[Philip Hughes Fan]

Well I was way off. Not sure how I'm going to like this, but we'll see.

[yankeesAZ]

"Frak Earth"

That's all I have to say. What an episode tonight.

[bigwampum]

A little disappointed in the Final Cylon reveal, but I'll wait for the explanation before rioting. I also could have done without the Dee subplot.
Starbuck's storyline was the real goldmine of the episode. The scene where she burns her own dead body on a pyre was perfect.

[bcom33]

I'm extremely, extremely disappointed in the final cylon...but whatever, I didn't really expect this season to be so good. maybe they'll surprise me.

I don't get it--how can we consider the final Cylon to be revealed when we have two candidates for the job? We need either a good explanation for Kara's Doppelganger dead pilot other than both are Cylon or a more persuasive indication than the vision at the end of the show. And I am not sure that "none of the above" is totally out of the running.

[bigwampum]

Yeah... so I could really have done without that last Adama/Roslin scene.
This last episode seemed a bit disjointed from the first one, and Lee Adama is a terrible politician.

[JDPNYY]

Can BB55 do a recap of the past seasons so I can watch the last 10 and know what's going on?

No but go to the BG site and play the clip "What the Frak is Going on?" and it will update you in 13 minutes flat, complete with comentary.

[Tifoso]

Watched it. Always loved the original series.

Is it possible that the wrecked Earth that they reach in the new version is in the past? ie, in our past? So that Adama---or however it's spelled = Adam? Who is Eve, though?

An interesting thought, but I really, really hope not.

[Philip Hughes Fan]

That was the best episode since the season 3 finale. Screw them and their cliffhangers though, I can't wait until next week.

[xenochimera]

finally picking up some pace. good stuff.

[bigwampum]

That episode was so chock full of badass.

I especially loved the scene where Lee arrives on Galactica, gets taken, and Starbuck comes in and just pops a couple of marines to free him. Just a complete "we simply don't have time for negotiation" moment.

[Sam18]

Just saw it. Sweet jebus that was awesome.

[Philip Hughes Fan]

This is the best the show has been since the miniseries. Damn.

[xenochimera]

good stuff again.

[Sam18]

As usual now, another amazing episode. Roslin is hella annoying though.

at least no bald sex scene.

[bigwampum]

Glorious.

What was that big black streak that Tyrol found in the FTL room? Was it a crack?

I believe so.

[yankeesAZ]

This show is the best on TV bar none.

[Sam18]

No that would be Lost, but BSG is #1A.

[yankeesAZ]

No that would be Lost, but BSG is #1A.

Lost got "lost" in Season 2 and part of 3. It's kicked ass since the second half of season 3 though.

BSG has been mostly non-stop and intense from the first episode to now. There were a few "filler" episodes, but very few of those and even those episodes were entertaining.

[bigwampum]

They've found a way to take cylon teenage angst and make it compelling. I love this show.
Also, I like Tigh's line: "Yeah, you point a finger back far enough and some germ gets blamed for splitting in two."

[Sam18]

I miss Baltar, I feel like he's been made completely useless so far this half season.

[yankeesAZ]

I miss Baltar, I feel like he's been made completely useless so far this half season.

My guess is he still has one more big moment or two left.

[Sam18]

My guess is he still has one more big moment or two left.

I hope so. I just hope he doesn't get killed off, he's my favorite.

[bigwampum]

I hope so. I just hope he doesn't get killed off, he's my favorite.

Baltar was easily my favorite character up through his presidency, then he got all one-dimensional and marginalized. I get it, he's a smarmy opportunist. But if you'd only watched the last two seasons or so, you'd have no idea that he's supposed to be an amazing scientist. You'd think he'd be spending night and day over on the base star tinkering with fun cylon toys. And not just the female ones.

[Philip Hughes Fan]

I hate having to watch this show one week at a time. Can't wait for the last episodes.

And it's looking more and more like Starbuck is somehow either #7 or connected (obviously) to it somehow.

[xenochimera]

i thought the episode as a whole wasn't all that, but the last 10 minutes or so were really good.

[bigwampum]

Looks like they're about to go charging into the Hot Gates. Should be interesting.

[Sam18]

A lot of people hated last night's episode but I loved it. It was nice seeing them on Caprica again. I really hope Baltar does something epic.

[rudedog71]

At first, I thought the Caprica stuff was to start promoting the new series...but the sub-plots didnt seem to connect. Call me slow, but I wasnt sure why they went into those sub-plots, it's kind of late in the game for character development.

I was hoping for a bit more action, but I think they did a great job setting up the finale. I think (hope) that Baltar will take Lee's words to heart and join the mission to finally do something that doesn't benefit him.

I just hope they don't make him pull a Sydney Carton in order to redeem himself.

[Philip Hughes Fan]

I just hope they don't make him pull a Sydney Carton in order to redeem himself.

Yeah, I doubt they'd have him go that far. It'd be one thing to have him go on the mission, but it just doesn't seem believable that his character would willingly give up his life.

[AMC]

So, tonight is the 2 hour series finale. I can't wait to see it but I'm sad it's over. I'm really going to miss this show.

Tell me about it, this year it's BSG and then next year Lost ends.

[tdel23]

I can't wait for tonight's episode!!

I wonder if the prequel Caprica will be any good???
