I’m trying to decide whether I still actually give a frak about this show. There better be more Cylons this season than just the one. The recap also implied that the virtual Tamara Adama will return; that will also keep me interested.
I…I am not sure whether I care. Which is confusing; I’d watched and been interested, but for some reason just thought it was all over and cancelled. Huh.
See what happens when you screw with the way television seasons were MEANT to be?!
Every time you mess with a Sept-May viewing schedule, Aaron Spelling kills a series.
(Or writes a new one, depending on your denomination)
It’s airing now and…it’s quite good, actually. They are not shifting between a zillion storylines and we really are getting deeper into what has happened in the 3 weeks between the last episode and this.
Without this thread, I would have missed this, so thanks.
I agree this was a strong episode. Shout out to da Bard with the “et tu” scene. OK, so he didn’t actually say et tu, but he shoulda. Thought the toaster gag was a little forced, though.
Like Clarice being stunned that she won the blessing, but recovering in time to avoid wasting her blank check. Also really like the virtual heaven concept.
No Young Admiral Adama this week. Hoping to see his dad redeem himself before this thing ends…
I was hoping we’d seen the last of Amanda Graystone’s weepy face, but alas that was not meant to be. Now I’m anticipating some hot PvP action between Zoe and Tamara.
I liked it (and I stopped watching Caprica around the 5th episode), but if RDM continues to pull on our heartstrings with more “Oh no, the terrorists are going to blow up cute 3 year olds”, I’ll be bowing out.
What’s with Mother - is she just a useless figurehead in the religion?
Huh. I’d idly wondered whether this was ever going to be on again. I missed it last night, but can probably get it from my Comcast On Demand feature. I’ll give it a look.
It does seem like the last episode was yonks ago, though.
I don’t think so. She might prefer it to look like that, but I think she just let that high priest guy think he was going to kill Clarice then arranged his death. Which begs another question; why does everything have to be so Catholic? Colonial (or at least Caprican) polytheism has a Catholic flavour (right down to confessions), now this monotheistic church (they actually used that word) has it’s own Vatican-meets-Potala Palace mountain fortress, a conclave, and a Holy [del]Father[/del] Mother in charge of it all. Then again it’s kinda hard to imagine how to have a Church-Militant that doesn’t look like the RCC. Still it does make me wonder what top al Qaeda meetings look like.
The entire 13th Tribe consisted of humanoid Cylons. After civilization on Kobol collapsed the 12 human tribes headed in one direction and settled the Colonies and the 13th, Cylon, tribe went in the other direction and settled “Earth”. Once they settled “Earth” they abandoned Resurrection if favour of sexual reproduction. Ellen, Saul, Galen, Sam, & Tory manged to rediscover Resurrection just in time for “Earth” to get nuked as a relust of an uprising of robotic Cylons against their humanoid Cylon masters. The 5 all died in the holocaust, resurrected onboard a ship with no FTL, and set off one a 1,000 yr journey to the Colonies at relatevisitic speeds.
