Battlestar Galactica 2.11 — "Resurrection Ship Part 1" (draidus contact! spoilers!)

The last two seasons usually had repeats of every episode several times during the week. That saved me a couple times, even though I do have a DVR.

I’m psyched for tonight’s episode. Hope they keep up the good work on this show. It’s great that so many Dopers are into it. For some reason, none of my friends can get into it, and you just gotta talk about it with someone!

I don’t know what the rolleyes are for, but the vice president is Baltar. Killing off Roslin and making him president would make for an interesting story arc.

I doubt Adama would have an difficulty acting against or even removing an insane President. I can’t see a confrontation between the two of them lasting much longer than it takes to arrest, shoot or defenestrate Baltar.

I don’t doubt either that Adama wouldn’t hesitate to take action if he saw the need for it, but the only one who knows or even suspects that Baltar isn’t right in the head is Baltar. He’s always been able to pass off any oddness as the eccentricities of a gifted individual.

Whatever the Cylon ship is - and I’m sure it’s going to be a major plot point and gets Blowed Up Real Goood - I hope that its destruction will cause a significant change in tactics for the Cylons. Imagine if it is the Cylon equivalent of a homeworld, and its destruction causes the Cylons to lose part of their massive military superiority. They become more desparate in their tatics, the Great Mysterious Plan of Stuff is either modified or discarded. Compare that to the usual “Ooo, the good guys win, but nothing really changes” in other shows.

Seems to ne that Starbuck would mention walking in on him with his pants down having sex with an invisible friend when she showed up for her Cylon test.
Maybe it’s just me. 'Course then she had sex with him, so maybe not. :slight_smile:

Ok, it’s 10:00 EST, time to stop looking at this thread till I can get home and watch.

Starbuck’s got a real set of cast-iron mivonks for sure…

[spoiler] flying down the throat of the Mystery Toaster Warehouse™, the Toasters never even detected the Blackbird… we think

as far as the MTW™ goes, it looks like a Six warehouse…
[/spoiler]

oops, back on…

Wo!

You’ve got to kill her.

Frakkin’ Hezmana!..
if Pegasus’s XO is to be believed, i really frakkin hate Cain now…

[spoiler]stripping the civvie ships for parts, leaving them stranded, perhaps even murdering families of the “important” civvies…

she’s a frakkin’ monster, a war criminal, no better than the mechanical Toasters…
[/spoiler]
now we have a better idea of why the Pegasus’ deck Chief doesn’t want to talk about how he was “drafted…”

oops, sorry for the frakked up coding, could a Mod fix the tags for me?

Ensign Ro, what happened to you!?
Sob!

Ahem.
Sorry.

I’m ok now.

Holy shit.
This is good.

Oh man, is this getting good!

Terminate Adama’s entire command, begining wih Adama? That Cain is a ruthless bitch. I think her XO will warn Adama though.

Did anyone else think Cain was going to kiss Starbuck in the scene where she made her CAG? You know the part where Cain asks Starbuck if she always gets what she wants and Starbuck replys with, “Most of the time.”

Nah. He might tell Tigh in his cups.

No.

I’ve always liked our President, but when she just comes out with the necessity of killing Kane…I think I got a stiffy.

Okay, not really. But I did find myselfloving her even more.

When it comes down to it, though, it seems to me that Kane will learn that respect beats fear every time.

From the preview, I’m going to bet that…

Starbuck just might not be the person sticking the gun in Kane’s face.

-Joebuck (not THAT guy)

I almost lost faith and called jump the shark after last season’s Saving Private Crashdown stuff, glad to see how wrong I was. That was the best frackin’ hour of television I’ve seen in maybe forever. Next Friday is WAY too far away.

(I was disappointed that Zarek didn’t get called in for Adama’s little job, though. I figured him as an obvious pick for the job.)

That would be the same Crashdown that took a bullet in the back from one of his men, right?

How does that qualify as “Saving Private Crashdown stuff”?
