this last episode, they really had a chance to swing back into the right mode of the series. but of course, the writers blew it AGAIN!!! What the heck are they doing? Adama should have thrown Starbuck out of the airlock and the camera’s should have shown a nice splat when that happened.

Next comment: I am getting SOOOOOOO tired of ‘Frack” it is spent and over-used. Writers: slow it down on the usage. the same thing happened to “Deadwood” when every word coming outr of their mouth was another cuss word. it really loses its effect and becomes simply old.

I don’t know what all the whining is about. I thought it was a good show. And it’s free on top of everything else.

The problem with the effeminate directors and producers of these series is they will not let the writers envision their original script. The directors in HoHoWood are so afraid to make any movie where guys get in ships, kick some butt, blow up some aliens (as another previous poster stated) and get the girl in the end. Come on, give us a break and for once, eat a rare steak, drink a beer and smoke an after dinner cigar to get your testosterone flowing again! Grow some nads and make a good tv show for once.

Typical Hollywood Cast: Apply any script/situation to this

In-charge guy: Although ethnically cast, acts like typical white politician. Be on the lookout for the moment in the show where he is questioned about his ‘toughness’ and shows his teeth. It never comes to physical blows and is usually a let down. (I would love to see Edward James Olmos go all Montoya Santana on a guy).

Show’s Tough-guy: Usually female with somewhat of a physical build, but not so buff (like scary Vasquez in Aliens) to keep the drooling geeks/nerds from buying life sized posters of her or blogging about her hotness.

Show’s Awesome Soldier: Again, ethnically cast, stoic (look up if your morons) with some goofy ‘alien language’ that sounds like your gagging on a bar of chocolate. Can have many rubber prosthetics to make skinny guy look imposing (think Warf). Usually prefers some traditional/archaic hand to hand weapon when fighting breaks out.

Show’s White-guy: Doubts his choices, or makes all the wrong decisions AKA Mr Apology. Often causing disaster but redeems himself through some sacrifice later (If the cast thinks of him as a ‘good guy’ this means he died doing it). Sometimes ends up being ‘Shows Bitch’

Comic Relief: If humanoid, usually a white guy (played with typical ‘impression’ of stuffy English guy), however in sci-fi show he could be robot or horrible CGI cutesy animal.

Show’s Bitch: ALWAYS a white guy, usually played by some smarmy actor with greased down hair. Always in the way, causing trouble and grief for the cast (think Dr Smith from Lost in Space). Sometimes doubles as ‘Comic Relief’.

I thought the first episode of season 4 was pretty decent; they had a lot to do with developing the particular details so that the story could continue on, so I expected more to the plot, but its just beginning. What about the little boy who recovered from viral encephalitis of the brain?… When he recovered, he sat there silently smiling in that sinister kinda way that you see in those horror movies when a child is possessed by a demon… and you can see Head 6 in the background smiling at his evil smile and looking on with interest. Which brings me to my theory… that perhaps this child has been “taken over” by a virus of the brain, possibly at the behest or direction of the Cylon God, it could be an incarnation of the Cylon God- or of the first hybrid from razor. Head 6 asks Gaius “do you think i’d bring you all this way just to let it end here?” and she’s previously told Gaius that he’s the Chosen one and out of all of humanity he was selected for her mission… I get the feeling that he’s being set up as another body for the Cylon God to take over at the right moment (why not before now though?), or as a sacrifice of some sorts, or because he’s a reincarnation of another being, or maybe his implant, or whatever it is that projects Head Six into his waking consciousness, is integral in the tracking of the fleet or the final plans of this guiding entity that they call “God” which is more likely just an infinitely more powerful being… There’s one attempt to put it into words. Oh- and Starbuck???? Could be a clone from “The Farm”… towards what purpose, we shall see.. We have seen several “daydreaming” sequences with several individual characters, and since the cylons have hooked up humans (hybrids) to serve as their basestar cpu’s, so as a parting thought I’ll draw a link here between certain cylon abilities (projection, for example, or Roslin sharing a dream with Cylons) by saying there may be a parallel between cylon abilities and human abilities- that humans have but may not even be aware of… After all, the computer technology is based on something, and apparently, humans are better CPU’s!

I disagree with the best line. It was from Starbuck but it was when she said to Anders, “Well, you are a better person than I am, because if I found out you were a Cylon, I’d shoot you between the eyes.” (Or something to that effect).

I totally disagree that BSG needs more “space battles.” Seeing that they are not likely to kill off a major character in a battle sequence, all the fights are just special effects with CGI spaceships blowing up.

The story is what matters and the writers have and continue to make interesting comments on our society.

It wasn’t the best episode but a good one to setup everything for what will come.

The Galacticans find earth and find the humans are humans, but were damned and see with their eyes closed and hear voices. They use lucifer and his damning to attack each others bodies, what happened to the ‘human’ cylons, which is the answer for all humans; to be a cylon, ‘a computer’ to stop lucifer and his damning of humans. So, the Galacticans are transforming into cylons in preparation for going to earth and concluding what the cylons already know, being a ‘robot computer’ is the only way to beat lucifer and stay ‘human.’ The God cylons know all this and are being nice to the humans as they evolve into something that cannot be affected by lucifer. The cylons goal was always to destroy the humans because they are a disease, luciferians. The God cylons have decided they may continue to exist as cylons; robot computers. The cylons aren’t nice and that’s because Satan invented them to conquer lucifer, who is damning humans to become what he is, non human. This is humans being reborn, but the birth is like lucifer using when a human is reborn at church; he assumes them again. Satan’s cylon birthing of what humans were is being reborn without lucifer being able to defeat a rebirth. Of course that is Satan and not jesus, but Jesus was the last battle against lucifer, which he lost and was raised by lucifer and reborn. Satan has compromised that damning into a rebirth the human can with at. A cylon that was once a damned luciferian human. This was what a human was before lucifer’s damning, basically ‘a computer’ who’s robot body couldn’t be attacked by lucifer. Lucifer can’t attack a cylon body and the perfection of what humans once were is, in fact, a cylon.

The God cylons have found a way for humans to continue to exist much like they were before lucifer damned them. This was not Stan’s order, the cylons’ creator, so there may be some problems when Satan damns the cylons for not following orders and has anything human destroyed as a luciferian, a disease that needs to be ceased.
