All Battlestar Galactica, all the time. If you don't know, you should know.

Leoben is Awesome. He is probably my favorite Cylon (out of the first 7).

keg in kc · 02-24-2009, 04:11 PM

That scene where he takes off when Starbuck finds herself dead on earth was one of my favorite of the whole series.

And I'm really glad we're finally getting back to that storyline. Although I'm guessing it's been conspicuous by it's absence by design and it's a major part of the series finale that starts a week from Friday.

But it's like they dropped that bomb on us, had Starbuck on the verge of telling Lee and then...nothing. At least nothing I can remember.

**Buck** · 02-24-2009, 04:20 PM

Is the finale a 3 parter? Thats awesome if it is.

Yeah, I don't know whether I'm in the She died and resurrected camp, or the thats a Starbuck from 3000 years ago camp. (You know the whole It has all happened before/it will all happen again stuff.)

So Say We All

keg in kc · 02-24-2009, 04:28 PM

It's a 3-parter, yeah. 1 hour on march 13th, and then 2 hours to end the series a week later. (I'm probably going to skip the first hour and watch all 3 in one night)

It's over in less than a month.

Well, at least we get 'The Plan'.

I'm gonna be

when Lost ends.

Luckily for me I just started watching BSG about 2 months ago, so I'm not as attached as you are.

Its a Damn fine show though.

keg in kc · 02-24-2009, 04:31 PM

Lost is just dragging on for me. I'd rather it ended and BSG continued, but the world doesn't work like that.

I'm used to scifi doing this, though. My favorite show prior to BSG was farscape.

BSG at least gets an ending.

Nightwish · 02-26-2009, 02:24 PM

Fortunately, once BSG ends, it won't be too long before Eureka starts up again. I've been missing that show something fierce!

**Buck** · 02-27-2009, 11:38 PM

Decent episode, didn't seem like the 4th from the Last episode, but way better than last weeks.

I am thinking that Starbuck may be some kind of weird different cylon, or maybe one of her parents was a cylon and she was the first half and half or something...

**007** · 02-27-2009, 11:58 PM

Similar to my Lost experience this week. 47 minutes of boring followed by 13 minutes of HOLY CRAP!!!! What an ending.

Silock · 02-28-2009, 12:16 AM

Ending was still "meh" for me. Better than last week, though, that's for sure.

Really? Damn. What does it take to pique your interest?

I mean, it was interesting as far as storyline goes. It wasn't BAD. But there hasn't been any action on this show in for ****ing EVER. I want some shit to go down.

I agree that it has been slow. The end of this ep seemed to remedy that to some degree though. It went from a slow crawl to rolling downhill at the end. I have to imagine the last 3 will be very good. I hope at least.

Silock · 02-28-2009, 12:48 AM

Yeah. I mean, kidnapping Hera to take back to Cavil is ****ing crazy. But they still didn't tell shit about Starbuck, really.

I think she is the daughter of the 7 model... the one that Cavil had destroyed because it was too sensitive. I think they described the 7 model as "sensitive and artistic". Thus the piano player. And Starbuck flashed back and remembered her father during this whole experience of gaining that song.

I think the 7 model was the first actual successful model because it became close to human... and Cavil destroyed that model for that same reason, not realizing the model had successfully reproduced. My belief is that Starbuck is the true first of the Cylon children, and that even the 5 didn't know about her.

Of course, she could be the 7 model transfered into a female form to keep its existence secret from Cavil.

I think things are ramping up for an explosive conclusion to the series.
