Imagine if it spread via the resurrection ship.... what could be worse than dying and suffering from a disease, only to wake up in a new and infected body, and repeat the cycle infinitely?

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I like how they seamlessly allowed us eyes into the Cylon workings through Balthar. It wasn't really something I was expecting, but cool regardless.

Agreed. I think it was a great way to do that.  We get to know some of what is going on without knowing everything that is going on since the Cylons don't really trust him anyways.

"Bayship" pilot enjoys her jumps quite much

Bow-chikka-bow-wow.


Here's whats's on my mind. I originally missed the line in the miniseries, where Six said that there were 12 models. Wouldn't it have been so much more interesting if that line hadn't been in there? It would've made Baltar asking Six about 'where are the other 5' so much more intriguing.

Baltar's character is, as usual, perfectly understandable but difficult to explain.

I noticed a nice clean groove to the midsection of the baseships; makes me wonder if they'll ever make them rotate or something equally saucer-separation-y. :rolleyes: :p

Yes, that's why he put it in quotes, because those would never, ever, possibly be used in irony.

the old version had it too...


anyway: imagine that: Six saying in a cheesy japanese accent: "Shiruken Cylon!!!!"
It came from outer space! What? Dunno, but it's going back on the next flight!

Yeah, I can just see that...the top and bottom sections start turning in opposite directions as the Baseship approaches Galactica.

Cylons: OH **** SON.
Gaeta (Galactica): WTF Cylon h4x.
Helo (Galactica): Cylon pinwheel zomg.
Baltar (Basestar): AHHHHH OH GOD I'M SPINNING

And what, exactly, is ironic about typing "bayship" instead of "baseship"? Bayship isn't even a word.

That's why the peppercorn storage bays are in the middle of the basestar, and why Cylons are never short of a condiment ;)

So, am I the only one having watched the new episode ?

Besides the near-genocide ... something struck me. When Baltar was humping Six in his head during the torturing, she asked him to say "I love you." and "I believe in you." repeatedly, which makes me wonder ....uhm ... has Baltar the Cylon god in his mind ?

apparently, you'd have though people would have wanted to talk about it, as it was a good epp, but neither here nor on the BTRL forums anyone seems too interested in discusing it.
