I also think that Starbuck has something to do with cylons, especially 13th tribe, cuz she found her dead body along with viper on the Earth surface and she knows the watchtower song which is known only to the final five who are remains of 13th tribe... I can't wait for the next ep :D

I've not saw the episode yet, have to wait until tonight or tomorrow night, however I'm not interested with Starbuck as she'll turn out to be a Cylon or a daughter of a 13th Tribe Cylon (I actually had a theory she could be Pythia out of the Sacred Scrolls). I'm more interested in Galactica's condition which I've heard is not good! :(

I hope (and i'm pretty much positive about) that they will not complete abandon the Galactica in
the next episode. I just can't imagine a finale of BSG without the Galactica :?

Beside that I'm happy that the Galactica have no run-of-the-mill ending where the ship will be destroyed
in a final combat. That would be unworthy! It have a much more dramatic way when the ship slowly fall to pieces :D

(though i wanted to see a last time the guns of the big G in action, when there is one left that still working lol :D)

there was one such a moment in season 3 when the 'Old Man' decided to liberate New Caprica hostiges, I rember LOL on my friend face when camc was slowly panning away and Galactica taking more and more rocket hits and Adama line : ' It's been an honour...'  man we thought they are finished. So i guess after that Galactica deserves more dramatic death...she's like a man with cancer, dying slowly.
Something tells me  that's the series that won't have happy-ending...

still i'd like to see what's also going to happen with Cavil and the remaining cylons

well, Ron Moore had said that BSG wouldnt have a everyone-lives-happily-ever-after-with-smiles-and-joy ending like most shows...

and there's nothing wrong with that, it makes BSG unique like 'I am Legend' tho thgis isn't the best example as even tho Will-Smith-Doc (can't remember his name) sacrificed his life, humanity survived and eventually rebirth... I just hope that when BSG come to end and main charachters are going to die/sacrifice their life they'll end up as heros among the rest of survivors, this would make a sad yet happy ending as those few men that survived would be the beginning of new humanity.

One thing I'm hoping is for an ending that makes me sit up and go 'WHAT THE FRAK?!'!!!!!  :lol:

I do like the way she's slowly groaning and dying but like Adama I've not given up on the old girl. A testiment to her design is that while her contrstruction was rushed and they cut corners she's taken more punishment than any fictional ship I can think of over a long period of time, the closest Trek has come to this was Voyager in Year of Hell and to a certain extent the NX-01 in the later part of Season 3.

I honestly thought she was a gonner when Bommer jumped away. I loved Hotdog pleading over the wireless for her not to jump and everyone in CIC looking up waiting for the bulkheads to rain down on them. I would have had the DRADIS console come down to really show how desperate the situation really is!

One wonders if Pegasus would have survived two wars and 50+ years of general wear and tear, but that's another topic altoghter and a huge can of worms! :wink:

Just three to go now i guess. Thats a little depressing in itself. I too hope that the ship and crew go out like the true heroes that they are. I'm sure i will have to watch the last episode alone in a dark room so i can weep unashamedly like a little girl  :(

I too will weep but just pretend I've something in my eye.

From the way the show is because we want and expect the old girl and the crew to go out like heros they probably won't!  :lol:

  • Hello, Jerry.
how can it be called battlestar galactica without the old girl.

:(

You realize of course there's just two episodes left till the end of the show? And I'm pretty sure Galactica will still be featured in both.

yeah but prequel series (Caprica) will have very little to do with BSG as it'll be something more like a drama.

And I believe The Plan (the tv movie) is set during the miniseries and told mostly from the Cylon perspective.

I can't remember where either DJ, might have been a link on the Battlestar Wiki site.

The last episode to be screened was emotional, I shed a tear at the finale scene of the two old friends sharing a drink and raising a glass to their old girl.

It makes one wonder if Kirk or Picard would have held the Enterprise is such regard. Janeway loved Voyager so much she stayed with her until the end.

I'm going to miss this show so much!  :cry:

Hey guys, a BSG movie might be on its way. Its gonna be done by the orignal BSG creater Glen A Larson and not Ron Moore so, I really doubt we will get a followup to the current series.
