New Galactica Series

[Nodachi]

It was broadcast. SkyOne in GB got it before SciFi aired it.

This show just keeps on getting more and more interesting. It's great! And I'm glad that there is good character development. Makes the characters so much more real to me that you can almost sympathize with them...until you realize it's a TV show
Hope they keep up the great story writing.

BTW, has anyone noticed that at the end of the credits those two cartoon characters always keep on fighting in new ways and take turns getting beat up/killed.

I haven't researched it, but that is a "vanity card" as it is called in the biz, which is usually the Paramount mountain, or MGM Lion roar or whatever production company. Those are likely to be the executive producers who apparently have more money than sense and have a rotating set of vanity cards.

Amen to that. I just keep getting involved and want to know how each character is surviving. The only thing that's really missing is some slam-bam action. It looks like what they're trying to do in the first season is character development, then hopefully in the next season we'll see more action and survival situations. The only thing that bugs me about this show is Baltar and Number 6. Either have her appear in person, which she can't now since she accused Baltar of blowing up the defense computers, or show Baltar's genius at work without the distraction of having Number 6 in his mind. Don't get me wrong. I like looking at Tricia Helfer, especially when she's tantalizing Baltar. I just don't like what they're doing with her. And now that he admitted to her that he'll make sure everyone passes as human on his test, and we don't know the status of Tigh's wife, it leaves some ambiguity as to his motive to help Adama and the president. Eventually, this might blow up in his face, if Sharon or someone other unknown model who's been tested does some sabotage. I guess we'll have to wait and see, since not everyone has Skyone

I had this idea, don't know if it will panout. I know Adama said that Earth was just made up, but they have to be going somewhere. I have this idea that after a few seasons they will discover the Earth Empire which has massive fleets easily able to wipe out cylon ships. What about it?

[Atrocities]

God I hope they do something better than they did when the original BSG met earth.

I think the whole point will be that Earth is the catallust for "restarting" everything each time. OOOOPS Spoiler!

[Azselendor]

Personally, I'd like the series to end with them finding out Earth is real, but they don't reach it. They just find a course or a heading, hell, Voyager 6

Are those the episodes with the super kids, camping supplies, and the fancy motorbikes?

Yup.. OMG they were so embarrassing to watch.

In the original series there was an episode where they picked up a radio signal from earth of the first lunar landing. Now I am not expert, but if that signal was picked up by the Galactica, albeit no one saw it, at their location, some many million light years from earth, then wouldn't it have taken that radio signal a fricking eon or so to get there? So by all rights the earth year should not have been 1981, some 11 years since the lunar landing, shouldn't have been something like 3481?

Even at light speed the fleet would not have reached earth for hundreds of years thus again proving my point. That if earth's technology was 1969 era at the time the cylons destroyed the twelve colonies, then by the time the rage tage fleet reached earth, earths technology should have been VASTLY superior to theirs. I guess they found a worm hole or something that cut the distance down by a few eons.

****IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE SEASON FINALE, DON'T READ****







I must say the ending of the season finale surprised me. I didn't expect Sharon to shoot Adama...it's not often shows can surprise me. And what's going on with Baltar? Has he totally lost it?
