Why? It's a nightmarish train wreck of bad writing now. The best you can hope for is that they hold off on closing the series with "Galactica the Musical!"

I have enjoyed BSG but its been showing streach marks for a wile. Better to end it now than drag it out.

I have been watching the marathon and I really don't see the attraction. Most of it is some kind of political drama, who will be the new vice-president, supply boycotts, etc. I think the best part of the series for me is when Boomer found out she was a Cylon, the Starbuck stuff, and Baltar stuff. I have always been a fan of the old Lorne Greene BSG and this new show doesn't do much for me.

Well, some very good scenes, a new good cliffhanger, decent headway in the mystery of the path to Earth and the remaining five cylons,...

It isn't bad and I definitely do not agree with Smasharoo, but I do believe that he's got a point about this kind of series derailing. It's probably a good thing they are going to wrap things up, it's just not a series that can last another five seasons or so. At least this time they get the time to wrap things up, unlike other series that just get cancelled for no good reason and have to rush things. (Angel, Farscape,...)

All along the watchtower is enough to make this serie rock. Best sesaon ending ever.

So, any guesses who the last Cylon model is? I dont think it would be Starbuck, too obvious, or any of the Adamas.

Of course it is. "Too obvious" for Galactica? You're joking, yes?

Okay, I guess, Calli cant be the last model. Kind of ruins the possibility of mom and pop toasters. Unless, we just havent seen her "resurrection" yet. Hrmmm, since the Pres is dying, again, maybe the twist will be she cant die due to her being the last model. Wouldnt that be a shot in the gut of the colonists to find out their Pres was a cylon. "Escort him off the ship,....Please." Good scene.

My understanding of the final five is that they can't ressurect. They were single copy models. No extra copies = no rezzing. So even if Calli was the last of the five she's not anymore.

All I can say is that it is really going to suck for Tory when Galen finds out what she has done. Because as it turns out, Cylons are exactly like their parents.

Would you like a side order of genocide with that?

Been thinking about this myself. I think it's the President. I don't know why, but I have a feeling.

The one thing I want to know is why they took so long to finally let Starbuck do what she needed to. It's also my feeling that the party that went with Starbuck will be the only ones to see Earth. Everyone else dies in a spectacular final battle.

I'm starting to get that feeling too myself, we should start a poll on it perhaps, see who gets it right on how the series will end.

Are we absolutely sure the Baltar is not the fifth one ? Would serve that nut job right to be one. Member when the Diana was looking at the 5 in the temple and said "I am sorry I had no idea".. that is where the clue is. Personally I knew it was coming this week when they blew the "good" group of cyclones to bits, dumb toasters walking into trap like that. /sigh

Are you human or cylon ? Join the fight !

Honestly, I took that as having to do with Col. Tigh - you know, the lost eye and everything...

Thats interesting I did not think about it enough. So it was going back to them torturing him? Did they say something later in in the show that pointed to that or guess. I really felt bad for the Tigh when he had to do his wife in, that was really sad.

No. You people really haven't figured this out yet?

The Cylon civil war becomes a war between the "mechanical" cylons, the raiders, the centurions, etc. vs the humanoid ones. The humanoid ones start to lose, and eventually are forced to ally with the actual humans. Together they destroy the mechanical ones with some lame deus-ex machina "secret" and all find Earth together, so that the "deep" ending of the lame story arc is that you and I are all descended from a mix of human and machines.

The end.

Should have been obvious. Galactica writers do the obvious thing, because it's what the audience wants.

You're CRAZILY overestimating the Galatica writers.

Nah, I will admit they lack ability to write decently. Several times I thought they should have gone one way when they went another. Like Baltar from criminal facing death to messiah just like that makes my head fuzzy. Plus the overuse of the word "frak" (yay we swear but don't). The show is a plethora of deus es machina. There is so much internal political strife in the show that I honestly expect everyone to just kill each other. Even Starbuck's crew is rebelling against her. The show makes my head spin too. Seriously, if it wasn't for Dr. Who, I probably would have given up already.


LOL now the good doctor is an atheist!

Now lets not go there, Dr Who as a time lord is surely not bound by any one particular religion type categories. But in saying that read this ...

the god of all Daleks


Btw if Starbuck is not the missing Cylon then I for one vote we stop seeing her go nuts each week.

Sorry, I misspoke, I meant Baltar as the good doctor.

<-- Major Dr Who fan since the beginning.

I agree with that, but tonight we find that out anyways. I missed her when she was gone, but since Starbuck came back, I wish she was still gone.

The starbuck arc is getting a litle bludgen you over the head with cliche obvious. It's going to be the classic "she thinks she is going to lead the humans to their doom because of the prophecy but actually ends up leading the cylons to their death. I'd bet money on it.

As for the remaining cylons, one is Pikko, the other one is a live chicken that lives over on the fuel barge.

Now you know.

First I am sure that the final Cylon is not a chicken...

This week was so upsetting, I mean have a heart. Six was just venting a little and creamed that woman into the side of the ship. Not a good reason to off her at all, just so unfair.

All Six has ever done is betray the whole human race and sleep with Baltar. I would rather listen to her psycho babble any day over Boomer's and what was that whole thing in the prison cell btw with Tigh ?
