whatever happened with roslin and baltar sharing visions with cylons?

2/15/2009 7:18:24 PM

^ I'm hoping that is the direction the show is returning to now that a lot of housekeeping is done

Can we assume Cavil and Daniel haven't meet on screen yet? Cavil would probably be surprised in meeting the last remaining Daniel copy and I can't think of any odd behavior he has given any of the "non-cylan" humans.

2/16/2009 4:14:10 PM

^where was it stated there was a remaining daniel copy? are you going with the starbuch theory? I think it's more likely that starbuck is related to the ship of lights

2/16/2009 4:41:14 PM

wtf

Ellen is such an awesome character

2/20/2009 10:47:36 PM

Frak!

2/20/2009 10:52:47 PM

Anyone think that the Chief wanting to leave was really out of character?

2/21/2009 6:32:48 AM

Yeah I was surprised, unless his reasoning was that they could take Boomer and leave. He knows if they stay Boomer won't last long (next episode).

I didn't like Ellen's character this episode. When she first came back she seemed brilliant and very aware of everything going on. This episode she was back to her old self, playing a fool. UNLESS it turns out she poisoned the baby somehow. I think it would be great for her character if she had killed the baby to get Tigh back.

2/21/2009 8:32:51 AM

^^yeah i was like "did he say he wanted to leave?!"

he must be off because of the whole boomer thing.

2/21/2009 9:42:03 AM

i think the chief wants to leave because he has nothing holding him there. once he was pointed out as one of the fifth, no one trusts him plus his babies is not his.

i think thats why hes like "fuck it, lets get out of here"

2/21/2009 6:58:56 PM

Where is Helo?

Did I forget what happened to him?

2/21/2009 8:38:16 PM

20 bucks says the piano player is Daniel

2/22/2009 2:19:49 AM

one of the main characters on Caprica is going to be named "Daniel"... coincidence?

2/22/2009 8:55:35 PM

Daniel Jackson?

2/22/2009 10:46:43 PM

Daniel Graystone

"things still unresolved: cylon civil war - likely drawing to a head as cavil et al follow ellen to the fleet. what's up with hera and tigh's all cylon kid? His name was Liam, the most badass name there is. why did doral and the black cylon only get like 2 lines each this season? - they keep saying the black cylons name, it's like "oh hey, don't forget there are these guys. we're not gonna pay the actors, but they're totally still here" what happened to head six/baltar? - "More guns, bigger guns!" also, what has boxey done while we weren't paying attention? - I bet he's taken over the black market after zarek died. also, he might be working to spring his foster mom from the brig."

2/22/2009 11:17:54 PM

^ Where the fuck is Helo?

2/23/2009 5:44:22 PM

Helo is investigating the dollhouse

2/23/2009 6:32:54 PM

I enjoyed this episode. Shit's about to get heavy. Loved the part with Hera drawing the notes to the Cylon song

2/28/2009 12:09:07 AM

yeah, i completely called that piano player being in her head.

good episode. pissed me off that the chief would be that stupid to trust sharon again.

2/28/2009 11:34:56 AM

^^^

Two hours of Helo is a great way to spend a friday night.

2/28/2009 12:31:15 PM

piano player = daniel = starbucks dad ?

2/28/2009 1:32:07 PM

yes

2/28/2009 2:16:59 PM

I am reminded that sharon is fucking hot

"piano player = daniel = starbucks dad"

Yep. No other way.

Also - Anders was "projecting" Daniel to Starbuck - notice his eyes were open and brain activity was crazy during the piano player sequences, but closed at the end.

It's established that the 8 models + the final 5 lived with the humans before the second Cylon war started - Saul, Ellen, Anders, Caprica 6, Boomer, et al... so it only makes sense that Starbuck's dad "disappearing" was in reality his line being boxed.

+1 ... really good catch.

i also enjoyed the episode. at first i thought it got off a little slow but really picked up. i was surprised at how it ended.

Boomer jumping through the ship was pretty bad ass

3/2/2009 9:44:42 AM

So I figure Daniel / Starbuck's Dad will show up near the end eh?

God I hope this ends on a positive note - it's gotten SO depressing. I mean, in a good way - they're writing it to be depressing, and it's working, but damn. Need something good to happen.

3/2/2009 10:51:28 AM

I have a theory that Starbuck was resurrected by the same station that resurrected the final 5 when she died back on earth.... but I don't have it really fleshed out that well.


That means that she's either fully cylon, or a half cylon like Hera.

3/2/2009 1:14:41 PM

^That's what I was thinking as well. From the resurrection technology that we have seen so far, it appears they keep copies of empty bodies to resurrect into... unless this station was different...

but then where did the brand new viper come from?

3/2/2009 1:33:11 PM

^ yeah, that's the hole in my theory


unless the original resurrection ship could also duplicate objects?

3/2/2009 1:40:37 PM

I like how Helio is conveniently the only person who cant recognize Boomer onsite

3/2/2009 5:15:25 PM

only the cylons have been able to, right?

You do know what show you're watching, right? I mean, I'm thrilled that they're getting back to being as dark as they were in season one.

3/2/2009 7:51:52 PM

Did Boomer jump away or did she suicide herself and Hera into the side of the ship?

3/3/2009 10:23:08 AM

i think you have to assume she jumped away - the only justification for her to just kill herself that helps the storyline is that it ruins the ship even more

3/3/2009 10:33:31 AM

^ a few

How would the res ship for starbuck know what tattoos to put on?

3/3/2009 10:49:55 AM

features like that could be part of her "memory" that is transferred, if she really is cylonesque.

3/3/2009 11:46:48 AM

Boomer totally got away, although her ship's damaged. It would be anticlimactic to kill Hera like that, not telling us if she actually died until the next episode. I'm gonna guess that Boomer's also preggo with another Helo babby.

I don't think Slick (what Bear McCreary's blog calls the piano player in Starbuck's head) is Daniel. I think the Daniel thing is spent. Gone. They really didn't leave any holes for him to still be alive. Anders could still have projected Slick into Starbuck's head, assuming Anders knows how to project... which he doesn't, but clever writing can take care of that hole.

Here's a pretty weird picture of Saul smiling:

3/3/2009 2:31:57 PM

^ Oh oops, I guess I did call that guy Daniel, didn't I. I think Starbuck would've recognized her dad

The rest of my theory still applies, though. He was an Anders projection. Otherwise they wouldn't have made such a big deal about the Boomer -> Galen projection thing.

I mean, there's never been another instance of projection anywhere else in the show to this point, so obviously this new thing has to have multiple entry points to be legitimized this late in the series.

3/3/2009 11:13:11 PM

a bit off topic but has anyone else been intrigued by starbuck's character on nip/tuck

3/3/2009 11:59:19 PM

^^cylons were projecting a bunch in season 3 and people were seeing others that weren't actually there since the miniseries

3/4/2009 12:18:56 AM

^ Plus all the times Baltar and Head Six went off to frak in his head on Caprica. Plenty of instances of projection.

Anders didnt know how to project, but then he remembered all sorts of information about where they came from after getting a bullet in the head. Very possible he remembered how to project.

"Daniel Jackson?"

lol that cracked me up.

I started season 1 about 2 weeks ago and I am finally caught up! I was really surprised that I enjoyed this show that much to be honest. I'm a diehard Stargate fan and I was hesitant to watch this show because there's only so much room in my heart for scifi love.

anyway, I can't wait for the next few episodes. it's hard for me to not being able to watch the next show immediately after hardcore binge watching.

3/5/2009 3:22:22 PM

^ i felt the same way for some reason I crammed and caught up in about 3 weeks right before the latest webisodes, so i'm used to watching like 6 eps in a row then more the next day now I have to wait. My ps3 is filling the scifi binge-ing void for now.

3/5/2009 5:03:30 PM

Haha yeah I was in the same boat as you guys. I started watching right when the show got to its break this season and watched from the miniseries to then to get caught up. Unfortunately chitchat had spoiled "ELLEN IS A CYLON" a couple weeks before hand and it was stuck in my head when her character first got introduced. It was a major bummer, till I finally saw how it panned out.

3/5/2009 6:13:26 PM

looking forward to tonight.
