Battlestar Galactica

Yeah the constant scenes of Adama watching the welding got on my nerves, especially since he had the same expression on his face every time, did they just film him once with seven different cameras and then take the rest of the day off?

Anyone notice the damaged base ship is now almost fully repaired?

If the Cylons can grew all kinds of stuff, and the skinjobs need to eat, it makes you wonder how much food is on the baseship.
 
Are there supposed to be other rebel cylons out there or are all the sixes, eights and twos on that one baseship?
 
I think so, which makes me think there arent as many skinjobs as we thought, maybe a few hundred of each model at most
 
I suppose a lot were destroyed on the resurrection ship and the hub.
 
Someone will die!
 
Jake the dog!?
 
Well, last night's episode was okay. I wasn't into it and then BLAM! TYROL BETRAYS
 
Yeah, not a bad episode. My two favourite bits were thanks to Bear McCreary, of course. The use of the original series music made me squeal, especially when Kara accused him of ripping off another composer. Perfect. :) And the All Along the Watchtower bit was fantastic musically and because of Tigh's amazing acting eye.

It's stupid that Kara is asking a piano player in a bar why she came back to life, but not asking Ellen. Maybe we're meant to assume she asked but Ellen didn't know anything.

I liked the projection. It kind of reminded me of Generations actually. The look of the place, the concept in general, Tyrol going to the room upstairs and the bit when he went through a door and appeared somewhere else.

Grace Park's orgasmic noises were great. And she looked really hot in her floral dress. I don't normally think much of her.

Kara's piano in the hangar deck wasn't all it was cracked up to be by the trailers, but I liked the bits with her "dad". Gave us an insight into her. Yeah, it took till almost the end of the episode for them to definitively reveal what we all suspected, which could be seen as a waste of an ep, but it would've been cheap to do the whole thing in ten minutes.

I liked the idea of the jump tearing the ship open, although thinking back, raptors have jumped almost that close to ships before and not caused any trouble. Obviously Galactica's much weakened now, but still.

Roslin's such a bitch.
 
^Yep, it's her fault that Hera's gone. Stone cold cunt!
 
Hell no it isn't. Boomer planned to kidnap Hera all along. Roslin did exactly what she should have, Tyrol is an idiot.

This ep was much better than the last one. Still, I was expecting some definite answers about Starbuck, but we're left to wonder if her dad was Daniel, especially after he magically disappears when she starts playing the song and Tigh and Ellen come running over.
 
Roslin turned out to be right in the end, but based on what she knew at the time she was too harsh. Boomer had helped Ellen escape and really wasn't dangerous in the brig, at least as far as anyone knew before Cavil's plan was revealed.
 
Boomer shot Adama, she is dangerous. Roslin knew that Boomer would use her Cylon charms on Tyrol, they just didn't get her off the ship fast enough.
 
Is Tigh's dead baby rebooting Anders' flatlined noggin? Was Dreilide Thrace the missing Cylon, Daniel? Will Galen Tyrol remember the old Earth saying "Fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again!" Will Tory Foster ever do anything interesting? Was that really the last tube of Felgercarb Toothpaste in the Universe?

Find out next week on the next exciting episode of "As the Battlestar Turns".
 
Oh... that's good article, haven't read the whole thing yet.

I figured he was her father, does it ever say that he is also Daniel?
 
No I don't think it's been said outright yet, just hinted at a lot.
 
You'll be proud to know I went straight to Bear's blog after watching the episode, mostly to see if he'd said anything about the TOS music that made me so fanboyish.
 
The piano player was definitely Daniel. You'll notice that at one point, Kara's cursing her father and directs it to the pianist. Probably intended to seem possibly as if she's projecting her father onto him because of the common association, but telling as well. He knew the song she was trying to play and helped her complete it. Kara's flashbacks scenes to her unseen father always interlayed with the pianist on Galactica, and his disappearance at the end points to him being involved with whatever's pulling the strings. We know that at least one model of Daniel survived Cavil and was around the colonies to father Starbuck, and it seems very likely that this same Daniel orchestrated Kara's resurrection.
