well, there are many copies. She`ll be around for a long ass time. More then some random cast, who will hopefully die.

CAG = Commander, Air Group

I never thought of this till just now, but wouldn't you think Saul would be a bit pissed he was never even considered for commander of Pegasus? Won't he be under Lee now?

Honestly, I don't think he wants the job. He didn't want to be in command of Galactica either.

They're still going to have to have a scene where Tigh deals with the fact that Lee Adama outranks him. He may not have wanted command, but him being a colonel while Lee becomes a commander is just too good for the writers not to make an issue out of.

Unless they go ahead and make Tigh a Commander as well. One admiral leads the fleet while each ship gets its own commander.

Well, now we know for damn sure six isn't a chip in the doctors head. I suppose now its supposed to be a mutual reaction due to some nuclear radiation and the cylon memory download process. I certainly wasn't expecting six to have Baltar on the brain.

Yeah that was pretty wild. Took me totally off guard.

I agree. This episode was very dynamic. I never saw this twist coming quite like that.

Not only is the Baltar relationship reversed for her but the whole war is reversed for the Cylons. Most all seem to think that they are fighting with God's blessing against the evil heathen humans. It reminds me of the wars we have on Earth where each side thinks it's "good" and the other side is the evil satan devil bla bla bla. Except that Battlestar makes it seem interesting and intelligent whereas 'the news' just makes you want to puke.

GOOD FREAKIN EPISODE!

Thank goodness they got outta the funk of the last 2 epis.

I wouldn't say that's a reversal. The humans don't think they're fighting with God's blessing against the evil heathen cylons, do they?

Good episode, though. I hope they do more with Sharon and Six Mark 1.

Yeah, that was my point.

For reference the Cylon baby was named Hera, who in mythology is the God of Earth.

Best episode of the entire series.

Myriad · 08:08 AM

I had heard that they were having problems with that episode, but it certainly didn't show in the finished product.

Although it looks like they couldn't get the actor who played Simon (Cylon doctor), because they had a guy who looked marginally like him in some of the background shots on Caprica. Only four different Cylon models got speaking roles.

greenamp · Feb 25, 2006, 05:17 AM

Speaking of which...

I thought I noticed what looked like another model in the cafe scene. As they were panning through, you could see the back of ones head who was sitting down that didn't look like any of the others at all.

Anyone else notice this too?

OreoCookie · Feb 25, 2006, 04:53 PM

THAT were two great episodes … 2x17 and 2x18

Was he bald? I think that was their Simon look-alike.
