Well, aside from the fact that it wasn't clear whether they were actually following Baltar or simply manipulating him to find the humans, just because it happened in the original series doesn't mean it will in the new series.

That being said, it's certainly possible that the Cylons in the new series could try something similer. And Baltar is so screwed up he might actually fall for it. But that still doesn't mean he isn't crazy and his mind 6 isn't some psychotic break.

Remeber how his Mind 6 reacted to the 6 they found on board Pegasus. It was almost jealous of Baltar making any sort of connection.

Ron Moore has stated he'll no longer be mining the original two series for storylines and plot elements. No War of the Gods with Count Veryevil Von Iblis, Cylon Spagetti Westerns, and Dental Chair Motorcycle Design from Doctor Zee.

With that laid out, time for spoilers....













Caprica Six's Baltar is definately a facet of her own mind. Her feeling of remorse about the destruction of humanity has taken form in the only human she loved - Baltar. Unlike the Six in Baltar's head, Caprica Six's Baltar hasn't revealed anything Six doesn't already know.

Six in Baltar's head, on the other, has revealed precise information about the Cylon's, Cylon religion, and so forth. On the other hand, Baltar could be really that brilliant and be making logical conclusions that play out in the Six delusion.




But I feel the more important question for BSG right now is how long until Pegasus looses this commander. They've already chewed through 3.

Also, we know that Gina's nuke will be used soemtime next episode or shortly after the start of season 3 against the Colonials, but RDM has stated Pegasus won't be destroyed any time soon repeatedly.

It's obvious they won't lose this one. I mean it's Adama's son! I am sure he will have several near death experiences while being the commander of the Beast, but he has faced so many of those already it is just part of his life.

Good. Those "time-loop" episodes are pretty cheezy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

You'll notice those flashbacks in episodes aren't really flash backs. they're time loops. See, Doctor Zee is soo pissed at being fired and his dental chair being reposessed, he's creating time loops in the new series.

But for safe measure, I'd recommend spacing all dentistry equipment in the mean time - lest Doctor Zee gets his hands on one and builds another flying motorcycle.

Rumor has it that there will be no new episodes until October. I guess it is because NBC may be picking up the series. I for one hope this is not true. I have a feeling if it moves to NBC that they will destroy the show much the way FOX destroyed Firefly.

I think NBC's been in there from the start. After all, don't they own the American Sci-Fi Channel?

I think you are correct. I don't necessarily mind NBC being involved per se, it's just that I wouldn't want to see them switch the show over to that particular network. Shows seem to go downhill after making such moves. But who knows? Maybe BSG will thrive on a big-time network such as NBC. Time will tell.

You guys didn't hear? BSG has been cancelled, they decided too many of the characters are just out of touch with the youth of today. The new series? BSP (Battlestar Pegasus.) They are basicly going to retool the show, keeping some of the younger cast and have it be like "Friends" but on a starship......

I kid you not.

I think I may have to find a really really big hammer if you say that again... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif
