Given the odd limbo that BSG finds itself in, and given that the ETA for new episodes is October-ish, let’s have a fake thread.
That’s right, let’s do critiques and spoilers for non-existent episodes of BSG, the ones that don’t take place between now and october.
I wasn’t expecting Starbuck, Apollo, Adama, Roslyn, Baltar, the Chief, Callie, AND the doctor to all be Cylons!
You know, everyone else bashed it, but I thought the story of the forbidden love affair between the two Cylon Centurions was truly poignant.
I could have done without them hitting all the dance clubs, though. Just cheapened the message, you know?
(BTW, everyone caught Adam Baldwin’s cameo in the lynch mob, right?)
Having Captain Picard showing up through the black hole looking for “Ensign Ro” was just plain stupid.
My favorite by far was the one in which a team from Galactica infiltrated the Cylon basestar and suddenly found themselves surrounded by hundreds of naked Boomers and Ginas, illuminated of course only from the shoulders up.
And then, just as all seemed lost, Tyrol manages to repair the lighting circuits in the basestar, and all that glorious naked Cylon flesh was lit up from head to toe. The twist at the end blew my mind…
Gina really is a platinum blonde!
While I really liked that ep, I’m still sort of pissed that it only played on the Spice PPV channel. Still I guess it was worth the $29.95 …
and who would’ve guessed that Boomer and Gina really were Humans, and everybody else were Toasters, real mind-frell episode, that
did anyone notice the really well obscured Police Box behind the tent city on New Caprica?
yes the storyline of the two Centurions in love was rather…unusual, but what about poor Centurion # 44774242011 and it’s forbidden love affair for Dalek Unit 66643, will they ever find true love, or will they end up getting an Open Firmware reset and a wipe-and-restore?
I have to say, having the Polar Bear turn out to be a figment of Baltar’s twisted mind surprised me more than it should have. [Re: “‘Lost’ Galactica episodes”]
Should have seen it coming when Caprica Six tore off Number One’s ape mask to reveal Baltar’s Six’s face underneath, too. “'Be frakking you.”
I thought it was a bit of a sci-fi cliché when they had Adama and Starbuck switch bodies for an episode after that glitch during a jump. Though it was funny watching Adama-in-Starbuck fake his way through the love scene…
I thought it was really lame when a third battlestar, named Gallactica showed up just to really confuse those of us who are too stupid to type “Galactica” with just one “l”.
That, and the hermaphroditic model sixes were rather, ermmmm, odd.
Wow, Roslin was the Cylon God all along.
I never saw that coming.
But I turned it off when Wesly Crusher showed up to save them all from her.
I liked the cliffhanger episode where they had the Galactica and Pegasus facing off against an Imperial Star Destroyer, the Enterprise-D and Defiant, the battleship INSS Lenin, and a couple of Earth Alliance destroyers.
Yeah, but the Pegasus had Master Chief in his EVA in the fighter bay, so it shouldn’t be that unfair a fight.
Unless those Reavers follow the Cylons back through the Boom Tube, that is…
It sucks how the Galactica and Pegasis were so quickly destroyed by the Cylon basestars. I didn’t see that coming. Why bother calling the show “Battlestar Galactica” anymore? I’m going to miss Edward James Olmos. 
I like the side story about the Raptor crew trapped inside the mountain back on Caprica. Do you think they’ll actually be able to tunnel through all 3,000 feet of rock with that one little hammer and chisel?
I’m glad they finally got rid of Tigh’s annoying wife. I didn’t expect him to kill her though – that took some balls. “I swear, she was a Cylon!” Yeah right.
Re: the Centurion love story: I’m surprised at how complicated Centurion sex is, with all those various probes and slots that have to fit together just right. Hardly seems worth the effort. I realize it was supposed to be very tender and erotic, but I got a little bored after the first ten minutes.
Yeah, “Y’know…Left, down…Rotate 62 degrees…Engage rotor…”, i guess you had to be obsessed with grilled bread products to fully appreciate it…
It was nice seeing Bender and the Original BBC Marvin make an appearance as well, looks like Marvin’s gonna depress the Toasters to death though…
i didn’t expect Boomer’s Pop-Tart to suddenly sport a bunch of cybernetic implants though, and her first words… “Wesistance is Footile, you be Assimiwated” was both cute, and vaguely creepy…
Too bad they killed off Boomer. However, replacing her with Bender as the new resident cylon should be interesting.
“Kiss my shiney metal ass, Adama!”
Adama; “So, Bender, how should we revise our battle tactics against the Cylon occupation forces on New Caprica?”
Bender; “Like most of life’s problems, this one can be solved by bending…”
Picking up Jack Bauer was a bad mistake. The battle against the Cylons has already been won.
Great quotes from the last episode:
“Six meet Seven of Nine.”
Six: “I am a name, not a number!”
Yet another captured-cylon-being-grilled scene …
Adama: So, Gina …
Six: I am a number, not a name!
