Default Re: OT: BSG Discussion

Typically scifi shows requiring location shots cost nearly twice as much as bottle episodes. Humanity is in a sorry state with a year of Baltar in the helm. plus it should be noted we have been jumping around on the timeline. At "Flight of the Pheonix" we stood at 3 months since the miniseries, Cain in Pegasus said it had been six months since the miniseries. Baltar's election took place roughly nine months since miniseries.

A full year skip, while killing a lot of storylines, does sadly make sense. The idea is to show that humanity has fallen back off it's guard again thinking the cylon threat had passed.

However, I still think this BSG was a waste of 90 minutes. Seeing the Orii ships in action in SG1 was a far more exiciting episode. (did you know if you stand one on end, it looks like a giant tooth?)

But lingering questions from Galactica

- The Brother Carville Duo's fate. I suspect rock-paper-scissors gets old after 380 days.
- Helo's Sharon's fate. I suspect she's in the brig given that Helo is replacing gaeta and that Adama will reveal her baby's fate to enlist her help.
- Tom Zarek and his motely crew of felons, rapist, and terrorist's fate. Richard Hatch is too money-grubbbing to loose galactica... AGAIN.
- Cylon/Human Baby now that the cylons are everywhere.

Did anyone else find it amusing the two cylon priest models were both really athiests?
