Battlestar Galactica Open Thread
New Feature on the 'Dog.
Each Monday, until, well, the big season finale next week, I'll be hosting the soon-to-be-famous Monday Morning BSG open thread.
Got opinions about the BSG? Afraid of saying them out loud because you'll (correctly) be accused of being a dork? Well, this is the place for you!
Oh, and there will be spoilers aplently, so if you have the episode sitting on the Tivo waiting to be watched, don't check here.
More below the fold...
Okay, to get the ball rolling, here are my thoughts and comments:
- There are so many balls in the air, I have no idea which ones are going to come down where. Or what other balls might still be coming whizzing towards our heads that we don't know about yet.
- I think we can finally put the whole "Gaius is a cylon" thing to bed. He's not.
- Although speaking of possible cylons, where has Gaeta been? I always liked him. Hopefully he won't show up a la Billy, only to be gunned down.
- The Number Six in Gaius's head seems to be way more cruel and manipulative than the one who was just reincarnated. Although the real Six seems to be highly manipulative herself. Though she's manipulative for a good cause, i.e. making sure Sharon doesn't get boxed.
- I always wondered how the reincarnation thing worked. I guess now we know. Although they weren't to clear on the timeline. Did Caprica Six get reincarnated right away or just recently?
- I'm also still not sure about how the cylons are organized. Like imaginary Gaius said "'They're' planning to box you as well." Who is this "they"?
- So many questions.
Explosive news from the Famous J front, but I suppose I ought to get some work done for now.
I don't like the fact that Lee Adama is commander of the Pegasus. It seems too cute to have the Adama/Adama battlestar team.
There are too many things going on at once. I expect that someone will get killed off pretty soon.
I expect that Baltar will be discovered to be a traitor to the Cylons at some point and he will go through a "downfall" and then he will go through a "redemption" phase. I believe Roslin will do this to beat Baltar in the election.
Ellen Tigh should come back and start causing trouble again.... my prediction.
Sharon (Boomer) Cylon is becoming annoying. Every time she shows up, there's some magical Cylon "power" or "ability" she employes to save the day. I get irritated by these things because it gives the impression that the Cylon technology is totally driven by the needs of the writers to finish their script and get out of work and go get a beer on Friday night.
