I am – Hercules!!
I was just reading about the PaleyFest “Caprica” event and it occurred to me that one big unanswered “Battlestar Galactica” question is, "How does a spacefaring race forget so much?" Did the Romulans not know that they were descended from the Vulcanians? If tomorrow we all had to flee Earth and set up shop on 12 other Earthlike worlds a galaxy away, how likely is it that none of us would remember to write down somewhere where Earth is, or that the lost 13th colony was comprised entirely of damn dirty robots? Was Geminon, Sagitteron, and the other 10 new planets colonized by a really small number of refugees? Did they store all their history books and GPS devices in a garage full of old rags and gasoline cans? Also, and maybe this is already covered in this fall’s TV-movie "The Plan," I can't help but wonder if there's an interesting story in why the old 2,000-year-old Cylons and their Kobolian creators went their separate ways. Maybe Jane Espenson and her “Caprica” writing staff will come up with a cool story about some archaeologist who discovers there were Cylons on Scorpeon or Libron 2,000 years ago? But they’re not there in Bill Adama’s era due to their inability to reproduce? Find TV Week’s coverage of the PaleyFest’s Monday “Caprica” event here.
