The reason her model was boxed was due to her obsession with the other 5, which the others saw as unhealthy, dangerous and divisive.

Oh, like deciding to give the raiders a "lobotomy" wasn't. haha That plan sure backfired.

OK, a lot's happened. Six pregnant, by Tigh no less. I thought the Cylons couldn't get pregnant unless they were in "love". I can see Saul seeing his dead wife's face in Six, but I can't picture her that in love with Tigh to get impregnated.

Lee's now the interim president. I can see that becoming permanent if Roslin dies before the end of the show. And did you get the editing of the trailer on last Friday's show? Lucy Lawless's charachter (Deana or Briana or whatever it is) telling someone that they're the 5th special cylon, and they sure made it look like she was talking to Roslin. How would Adama feel about the woman he's finally admitting he loves turns out to be a cylon?

Can't wait to see this weeks episode.

Renegade, i dont think you are right. They boxed her model not because of her focus on the final five (who are the first 5 actually) but because she knew who there were.
himo.

Possible, but I seem to remember the cylons saying several times that they were 'forbidden' to discuss or even think about the five. And due to her insistance on breaking that particular rule, and just in general how "roguish" she had become, they decided to box her. After all... only Baltar was with her when she had her epiphany at the temple on the algae planet, and once she rezzed from that experience, she told her compatriots that she knew who the final five were, but that was AFTER they had already decided to box her series.

That's the way I understood it.

Uh, hello all... LTNS. I'm surprised by the amount of negative reaction to the show overall on this board. Personally, I think it's some of the best TV written and produced since West Wing. I'm slightly annoyed with Lee Adama ascending to the presidency in a single episode, but other than that I think the whole thing's a rip-roarin' good time.

I'm with you, TT. I don't know why a lot of people don't like this show. I think it's a great show and may be worthy of being called a classic along with Star Trek and Babylon 5. But the season's halfway over with, and I can't wait to see what happens when they finally find Earth (which may be this Friday, going by the trailer).

Heh...Would be funny (If I watched the show) if everyone on Earth was a cyborg...
