It had lesbians! (didn't it? I don't remember). Except for the last couple of episodes where they knew it was cancelled so they didn't really bother with post-production, it was a pretty cool show. Also, you'd think those flight suits would be flame retardant..

if i was writing it that's what i would do. kara is too obvious. any of the adams screws up the father/son relationship. roslyn is the best one to make the story. kara (the "good") vs roslyn (the "evil). roslyn in bed with adama. roslyn having control of the entire fleet, taking them in the wrong direction. do not know how they would explain starbuck's ship though

Getting to Earth in the finale
by photoboy
Apr 6th, 2008
04:57:09 AM
Is it just me or does this sound like they're making the exact same mistake that Voyager did by only showing them getting to Earth in the final episode thereby robbing the audience of any emotional payoff?

Also, I really hope they don't do anything stupid like killing everyone off at the end. That's not dark and edgy it's just annoying.
damn I hope Baltar is Jesus...
by SantiagoAtez
Apr 6th, 2008

remember that old theory that they were going to get to Earth around that time and Baltar was going to end up being Jesus? That's all I was thinking about during his scenes in the season premier.

Baltar as Jeebus=ANNOYING!
by Baron Merlot
Apr 6th, 2008
11:57:51 AM
I loved the season opener. As some of you mentioned, great battle sequences (loved the Galactica's cannon's firing) and nice character growth. The Baltar as Jesus thing drove me nuts though. What was his followers' faith based on? Historically, religious leaders at least perform some kind of miracle or show show "God-given" powers, but I don't recall Baltar doing anything particularly God-like to create this group of blindingly faithful disciples. Wasn't he just a charismatic politician that told the people what they wanted to hear?
jesus

Apr 6th, 2008

was not the only messianic figure. his time was riddled with prophets. he just so happened to be the most famous one. sorry, christians, but that's the historical truth. you can still argue he persisted cuz he was the real deal though. also, baron merlot, baltar's miracle happened in the season 4 opener with saving the boy through prayer. his charisma and stature got him his groupies (hey, even bush still has his 30% out there) and this miracle will make him a demigod.
Baltar is not Jesus.
by Mechasheeva
Apr 6th, 2008
01:50:31 PM
He's the antichrist. The antichrist arrives to ready the world for the coming of the messiah. Many see him as a prophet or confuse him for the messiah. Biblically speaking, I mean. Also, Baltar pretty much has the devil living inside him. The real messiah, of course, must die and resurrect so that she can prepare the way to heaven for her people. I say "her" because it's Kara. So neither of them are Cylons, but they still have a part to play.
I agree with Baltar. How stupid do you have to be
by CrichtonAstronut
Apr 6th, 2008

Really want to see where they go with the Starbuck storyline. Whoever set her up with a new ship certaintly didn't seem too interested in making her story credible. New ship, no scratches, no info in the nav. computer, no explanation for the time descrepancy. They even set the clocks wrong. And she navigates by Spider Sense. If not for the new ship an the Spider Sense I might be thinking she got spat out of an alternate universe or timeline. All of this has happened before and all that. Though, I'm not sure that would fit this series anyway. Cool stuff though.

well founded. So Cylon or not, good or evil, I wouldn't necessarily count on Kara's actions leading to any beneficial end or anyone, even herself. Ros is a good theory though I also wouldn't count on the final Cylon being evil either. The Final Cylon may be the ne that brings peace and survivl for both races, if either survive.
Their careers aren't over, that's a stupid thing to say.

Don't you know how these things work? The writers/directors will pitch their favorites for other shows in the future, over and over again. Because they like working with them, and marketing can do the whole "guest stars from BSG!" thing. Some will get parts in movies, maybe even leads.
Careers

Farscape and Firefly actors found their way into current SciFi series--Katee got burned by the incompetence of others on Bionic Woman, otherwise she was already set up with a show after BSG.

I will have trouble seeing Callis as anyone other than Baltar, though..sorta like Radar O'Reilly.

The 12th Cylons is ...
by TheCap
Apr 7th, 2008
06:26:14 AM
...going to be a really tough call. Roslyn, either of the Adamas, Starbuck, Baltar are all way too obvious choices. More minor character like Felix, Helo, Callie would be mildly surprising but still a little bit predictable. It's got to be someone or something far less visible than we think. The idea that something "mechanical" that has been right in our faces the whole time has a certain poetry to it - for example, what if the Galactica's FTL drive was the last Cylon ?
I'm still calling...

...Doc Cottle as either the 12th cylon or the cylon God. He's been there since the beginning, always in the background, interesting encounters with characters including D'Anna, etc.... As for people's jobs being over after this...doubtful. Even if BSG still doesn'ty have a huge audience, critics love it, and so do other people in the tv biz. The guy playing Helo is already signed up for Whedon's new tv show Dollhouse...so my guess is they won't have too many problems getting work.

I'm still waiting for that final episode to be the Galactica survivors ending up on an island in the South Pacific populated by polar bears... Jacob is the final cylon... and FTL jumping is the fastest way to get on and off the island. Benjamin Linus has access and mastery of this technology.

We have to go back because we're going the wrong way!

I said the same thing about Cottle in the last bsg talkback. (Pointing this out because I agree with you, not trying to say that I said it first or anything). I can see a lot of these actors getting work. Chief could play all kinds of parts: doctor, CSI type guy, he might even be the next Brian Dennehy.

by CrichtonAstronut
Apr 7th, 2008

about it Cottle seemed unintimidated by D'Anna and always seemed to be sympathetic to Sharon and her baby. Never really seemed to share the others concerns for what the baby or Sharons presence could meen to humanity.

by hst666
Apr 7th, 2008

That would be interesting, because he has a been a recurring background character, there for Boomer's birth and Roslyn's cancer. However, I think it will likely be someone more major.
Cottle was exposed...

...to the Encephalitis bug. He came up with the treatment (not the cure)so if he's a toaster he must be taking the treatment to keep the bug at bay or he's lying, and it IS a cure (maybe he gave it to Athena too and the baby-given-immunity is a crock. I tend to think he is not a cylon, though I agree he'd be a good choice for the 5th.
What about Richard Hatch

I think I read somewhere that the final cylon ISN'T anyone in the "last supper" picture (on SciFi if you haven't seen it). Though they are really building up the "last cylon" angle, right? With that, I can't believe it wouldn't be a major character.
Doesn't matter who the fifth cylon is.

Some will be disappointed. Some mad. Some happy. My only concern is that they finish this last season good. I hope that many of the plotlines will be tied up. Hate to see so much left open in other series I have seen. I hope BSG doesn't fail in that.
Lots of yelling in the first ep...

Anyone else notice that? Also, I am going to annoyed if there is like 3 mins of Earth on the series finale... I really hope that Earth has at its disposal some really really wicked arse weapons to fuck the Cylons... and Sci-Fi best show dem final eps real quick... or those fat fucks... ugh, fucking execs... always fucking things up.
It will probably end like the Sopranos.

by CrichtonAstronut
Apr 8th, 2008
02:24:03 PM
Crazy idea probably. But maybe it reincarnates itself through an artifical gene spread among members of this generation of humans, to assemble itself when and where it is needed within a baby. and this baby, faked and cured it's own illness to enhance the myth surrounding Gaius Baltar.

I was thinking that exact same thing just the other day. I kind of like the idea. And to point out a few other things, Galactica is not a cylon. The final five were standing in front of D'Anna in a vision, I'm fairly certain none of those five was a battlestar. Another thing, the "baby" that Baltar "healed" was about 6 years old, so not really a baby. ChestBumpingFatKids is right...Cally is going to do herself very soon, upon discovering that her husband and son are cylons. I strongly believe that the final cylon will be either Dualla or Gaeta. Those are the only 2 that make sense. My money is on Dualla. The other recently revealed 4 are all near someone or something very important to the survival of the fleet. Tory/Roslyn, Tigh/Adama, Anders/Starbuck, Tyrol/Viper Fleet. Once Roslyn dies, look for Lee to be in a very high political office. His wife will be the cylon that is near him.
Good post justgetreal
by I am the most horrible
Apr 10th, 2008
11:45:16 AM
Makes some sense. I considered Dee and Gaydar too. Gaeta just doesn't grab me as a Cylon, though maybe that's the idea. I could see Dualla as the last. My bets are on Hatch, Dualla and Ellen Tigh in that order. I say Ellen Tigh because it's apparently been hinted that Dean Stockwell knows a bit about the final 5 and he had a total boner for Ellen for some reason. Maybe that's why. Maybe he's a starf*cker.

. . . is helo i think. if helo is a cylon, hera is NOT the chosen half-n-half, but nicholas, tyrol & cally's kid, IS. and that is an interesting thought. plus, helo is a badass.
Da Mansai
by justgetreal
Apr 10th, 2008
01:42:46 PM
You're right, Helo would make a good cylon. Consider that he was the only one still alive on Caprica...what happened to the 30 or so people that were left there with him? Not to mention the fact that he saved the cylons from extermination by killing the infected cylons. The only problem with that theory is that Helo is in the Last Supper picture, and RDM said that the final cylon isn't in the picture.

I like Richard "Zarak" Hatch too, he has always been right there near the top of the food chain in regards to the political structure. I think that he might at least be the most entertaining option as a cylon.
One other thing...
by justgetreal
Apr 10th, 2008
01:47:30 PM
Just look at Dean Stockwell. I don't think he's all that picky, I have to imagine that he'd f*ck anything with a hole in it. I wouldn't stand in front of him.
