[Cush]

[johnfunk]

1. It's Sci Fi Friday, ya bastids!

(to steal a line from Randi Rhodes).

Michelle Forbes! Yeah, bay-bee!

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. I'm still watching the first season DVDs!

I won't see this season until it's over and the DVDs come out.

But the first season - seeing it for the first time this week - WOO HOO!

[crispini]

3. O M G !

this is getting good!

[crispini]

4. O M G !

[Gothic Sponge]

7. OMG!

We have to wait for months to find out what happens!

*pulling hair out*

[anarch]

8. ack! I know, I can hardly take it

"I'm getting my men back." *click*

Edward James Olmos rules!

[crispini]

9. when's the next one?

[Gothic Sponge]

12. Jan 2006.

[crispini]

13. Nooooooooooooooooooo!

Damn!

Now that's some damn fine TV.

LOL, the sci-fi.com boards are down. everyone's slamming 'em. :D

[crispini]

5. Man, this show rocks so much.

[johnfunk]

6. Frakkin' outstanding episode...

... great cliffhanger!

[NewJeffCT]

10. where was the extra 2 minutes?

They had the big promo of the extra 2 minutes and it was all over at 10:58?

Good episode... it will be interesting to see how it turns out.

[crispini]

11. Yeah, what were they talking about?

:shrug:

[Gothic Sponge]

14. I think the extra 2 minutes was to promote their Friday schedule

returning with new episodes in 2006.

[Zero Division]

15. Damn, that was intense.

I think the Battlestar Pegasus might as well be renamed the Battlestar Abu Ghuraib. Perhaps now the crew of Galactica will start really questioning whether they ought to view the humano-cylons as sub-humans and what treating them as such could do to the humans on Galactica.

[barb162]

16. will it be replayed? anyone know?

[Gothic Sponge]

18. Yes, at 1am EST

Don't miss it.

It was so good.

[barb162]

25. Was it confusing? Remember the last episode from last season.

DUH? I still can't figure out what the blonde cylon woman was doing with the cradle outside and the whole rest of it. I will watch it

[CatholicEdHead]

27. It was symbolic and part of the Doctor's visions

The baby in the cradle is Sharon's baby.

[crispini]

20. Yes! I will watch it again.

Some bits were hard to watch though. Wrenching!

[CatholicEdHead]

17. Wouldn't Pegasus have the same weakness of the newer Battlestars

they showed in the miniseries? With all those networked computers, wouldn't that cylon-programmed weakness be in there? It should be cylon childs play to shut down Pegasus systems and wipe them out.

[Gothic Sponge]

19. I think the Pegasus is a hybrid of new and old technology.

Just my guess...

:shrug:

They were using corded phones.

[CatholicEdHead]

21. That is still not a clear sign that the computers are not networked

I hope they go into this in January. Will it be a long Pegasus story arc? Or will the ship be gone after the next episode?

[crispini]

23. Hm, interesting question.

I bet they'll keep the Pegasus around for awhile. They've clearly put a lot of work into it as far as backstory, characters, sets, etc. I think they'll try to get several eps out of it.

[crispini]

22. I betcha somebody on this other board

http://mboard.scifi.com/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=BattlestarGalactica

will know the answer. But I think they're down right now. Slammed with season finale posts. :D

[NewJeffCT]

35. my guess on the Pegasus

The cylons needed help from Baltar to infiltrate the Colonial systems... when the big assault came, the cylons did something that was not exactly long range to disrupt the systems of the colonial defenses, meaning they had to go from battlestar to battlestar to take them out.

I'm guessing that the Pegasus people figured out the cylons were able to infiltrate the systems of the other colonial battlestars & defense forces and have done something to cut off the outside access to their systems.

[Gothic Sponge]

24. Now I have to watch this episode again with Ron Moore's commentary.

[crispini]

26. Ooooo! SWEET!

Thanks!

[Gothic Sponge]

28. NP. If you want to hear a podcast show about BSG, it's here

http://www.alanlight.com/cic/cic.htm

He should have a show up for tonight's episode by Sunday.

[crispini]

30. excellent! tks!

[crispini]

31. LOL! Are you listening to the podcast and he's talking about JOHN BOLTON!

How flipping funny is that! :rofl:

[Liberal Veteran]

29. Ick...It's like the Battlestar Free Republic.

I wanted to take a shower after the brief exposure to the Pegasus.

[NewJeffCT]

33. yes, i was wincing

when the "cylon interrogator" came into the room with Boomer & started to pull his pants down.

[0rganism]

32. Yikes! Damn fine episode, that was

Color me impressed.

I was thinking that Commander Kane (sp?) was a cylon at first. But the more I think about it, the more I'm sure she's completely 100% genuine human. Specialized, but human.

Her ExO looks worried. :o

[NewJeffCT]

34. I think he may be pivotal

he's probably scared after telling Tigh the story about how she shot the original xo... but, he may finally get to the point where he says enough is enough. I don't think Cain or Kane has a clue with how to deal with civilians, either, while Adama has done okay in that regards.
