Wow March 20th.....bummer...It has been a GREAT ride though and I cannot wait until I see how it all ends.

Just watched last friday's BSG.. it was good, as you know I'm not a fan of Baltar and wasn't thrilled with his stuff. But... [spoiler]When Caprica and Tigh lost these son it was heart wrenching. And Ellen.. still the same old Ellen, petty and jealous. I did like the interaction with Tigh and Adama.. best friends till the end.. very nice.[/spoiler] I look forward to next weeks episode.. finally some Starbuck info.. at least it looked that way from the previews.

Yeah, this episode was good. I agree it does seem like Baltar has been somewhat minimized as of late but I have a feeling he will be a key to the end. I also preferred him when he was the scientist/politician you loved to hate. The messiah thing leaves me a bit cold. I was a bit put off by Ellen reverting to the old Ellen, I liked her better last week. This episode had some weird editing going on as well.

Yep; it looks like Kara is going to get some quality screen-time. :)

Quote from: wraith1701 on February 14, 2009, 12:51:15 PM[spoiler] upcoming episodes of BSG introduce a character named "Slick", who has a strange connection to Kara. Possibly her father?

Upcoming episode, "someone to watch over me"--

"Directed by Michael Nankin, the episode was written by David Weddle and Bradley Thompson. More details on the character Slick, as reported by Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello are: "Late 20's-Late 30's. This handsome, charismatic, slick and mysterious piano player is someone Kara is inexplicably drawn to. She finds herself telling him things no one knows about her. "

Is "Slick" Daniel? [/spoiler]

Very interesting episode last night. Still a lot to learn about Kara. And Boomer - man is she nasty! Three more shows to go!

Did anyone else figure out who slick was by the second time he was on the screen?

Who? The piano player guy??

[spoiler]I kind of thought he was just in Kara's head.[/spoiler]

There's a Boomer. There's another Boomer. Oh and look, a Boomer beating up a Boomer. My heads still spinning.

moyer777 · February 28, 2009, 12:20:25 PM

Yeah, I told Amy after the first scene with the guy...

[spoiler]that's Starbuck's Father![/spoiler]

Bryancd · February 28, 2009, 12:52:06 PM

..and I also clued in early that he wasn't even there.

Darth Gaos · February 28, 2009, 06:58:14 PM

Is anyone else starting to get a bit concerned about the end of the series? I am just not sure how "we will know the truth" in just 3 more episodes. Last night's episode was(to me anyway) one of the weakest I have seen. I dunno, it was still better than most everything else on TV but the latest episode just left me flat. The last two eps haven't seemed to really advance the plot much. Maybe I am just tired who knows.

Dangelus · February 28, 2009, 11:10:06 PM

Yeah it was a strange one.

I'm getting the impression we will keep getting trickles of info and then BANG! awesome finale...

I think Kara will be central to the whole thing too.

BTW did anyone notice what they did to the tattoo on her back? Usually it is covered up but this time they have doctored it for the cameras. Katee's actual tattoo is a Christian cross which would be out of place on the show.

I actually felt like it was a pretty strong episode.

The ante is bing upped big-time, and we finally are seeing some payoff on the whole "Hera Is Special" storyline. It also feels like the show is coming full circle with Boomer & Chief-- the relationship between the two reminds me of what went down in season one, and just how much she has Tyrol wrapped around her finger. I'm buying that she has real feelings for him, but that The Plan trumps emotion as far as she is concerned.

So; we are on the verge of finding out what the deal with Starbuck is (a BIG REVEAL), what the significance of Hera is (another Big Reveal). We seem to be about to find out if the Dying Leader prophecy applies to Roslin, and what the Hybrid's statement about Kara being the harbinger of death is all about. Plus, the Galactica, the only real home the colonists have had since the holocaust, seems to be on her last legs.

All in all, I feel like the show is ramping up to something major. I'm psyched!

Rico · March 01, 2009, 09:38:11 AM

I liked the latest episode, but I do think we are definitely heading to some major stuff going on. The theme seems to be that humans and cylons have to work together to survive. I'm pretty sure they will find a new home, probably about when Galactica completely falls apart. Still want to know more about Starbuck and what Cabal and the "bad" cyclons are up to. Three shows to finish it all up!
