I like how the Galactica Watercooler guys refer to it as "Earf" since we're not sure whether or not it is our planet Earth. :)

Well, since YouTube didn't seem to like me putting up that Robot Chicken and Ron Moore tiny one minute clip, I have it on my site now. Still cracks me up!

Solid episode tonight. Not sure where they ar going with Baltar though. Adama, I think, is dying and is the leader foreseen in the prophecy, not Laura.

I'm trying hard not to majorly spoil the episode for those who haven't seen the latest episode yet. But I will sum up my feelings of tonight's BSG episode with this: fraking amazing. Definitely an improvement in tone over last week's episode, in my opinion. :)

Did anyone else want to punch Gaeta when he was talking to Kara? I can see where his anger is coming from, but his comments were just wrong.

I can definitely see where Gaeta's coming from. He and Dee were kind of buddies s on top of everything else he's taking that pretty hard I'd say.

It was kind of one of those transition episodes to me. Building up and setting some things in motion. I'm glad at least some of the people are holding it together. Looks like Ellen is definitely # 5 and Tigh told Adama. The scene with Starbuck & Gaeta was painful. Can't wait for next week.

I agree with Bryan, I think Adama is the dieing leader. The twist with Callie and Cheifs baby was interesting. I kind of like the attitude that Gaeta is carrying, should make for an interesting next few episodes. I was happy he called Stabuck out, she has done that to others in the past, so nice to see it turned around. I felt she had it all coming, so was not painful to watch in the least for me. It is not that I don't like her character, but considering she nearly airlocked Gaeta, and was one of the ones responsible for him losing his leg, his words seemed justified from his point of view.
I could see where this was a Ron Moore directed episode, considering there was not a lot of action it it. I am hoping some of the upcoming episodes will have a bit more action and space scenes.

I think the switcheroo with Callie's baby felt a bit forced. Now that Tigh and 6 are preggers, it seems another hybrid baby doesn't need to be around anymore so they gave her a human father instead of the Chief. Also, although I am happy Ros and Adama have hooked up, that too felt a bit rushed. It was so nicely nuanced back in Season 3 with the falshbacks to New Caprica and the two of them getting stoned. :)

The baby for Tigh and the Six is a full Cylon baby - not a hybrid. The only hybrid currently is Helo & Sharon's kid - since Chief isn't the father of Callie's baby. Oh and Adama and Roslin have hooked up a number of times and been close for awhile now. You must have missed some things Bryan.

...ok, I said the Chief and Callie's baby WAS a hybrid until this episode as the Chief IS a Cylon and Callie IS NOT. That's because now that Tigh and 6 are preggers, they have the FIRST FULL Cylon baby., so we don't need another Hybrid beyond Helo and Sharons. Adama and Ros have hooked up in a very minor sense, I would suggest this was a bit more, no? You must have missed that. :)

...is this thing on? (tap, tap, tap)

Rico · January 24, 2009, 04:02:02 PM

I guess I didn't follow what you meant about the baby because you started talking about one baby and moved to the other. And no - I didn't miss anything. To be direct, this wasn't at all the first time on last night's show that Adama & Roslin have gone to bed together. There have been several times this has happened. They also have admitted they loved each other, so last night made perfect sense to me.

Bryancd · January 24, 2009, 04:04:00 PM

When have Ros and Adama actually been seen together in bed?

Rico · January 24, 2009, 04:06:15 PM

At least twice on Galactica and at least once on New Caprica - and those are only the times they have shown on air. They were on New Caprica quite awhile.

Bryancd · January 24, 2009, 04:13:37 PM

Well wiat, on New Caprica they are shown laying out in a field looking at the stars after they got high, but there was no implied sex's there. When on Galactica?
