Wow.... wow.... wow....
That about covers it for Season 2 so far. What a cliff hanger. Can't wait until Jan when it's on again so we can see what happens.
Has anyone else watched the second season thus far? I don't want to talk about plot etc til I know someone else has.
Come on I know you're out there?

*gasp!*
Can I ask why?
I like them, though I can see why Starbuck would annoy some people. But 6?
I await your well thought out response of dislike hehe

well she (6) just annoys the hell out of me. especially when she is in scenes with dr drippy. I saw an interview with the actress some time ago in which she said she wanted the audience to by sympathetic towards her character - then the first thing her character does is murder a little baby - not quite a sympathetic action really. someone needs to feed her a bit too. I hate it when a character is made up to look sexy - which her character is made up like quite a lot - it rarely works, often resulting in cheap/tarty instead, imho. Look at the recent Maxim photos of Grace Park - nice pics but they don't show her off at her best at all. Her look in the show- indeed her "everyday" appearance (and that pony tail - yummy ...) - much better. (yes I'm a Boomer fan) ;D As for Starbuck - I welcome a strong female character in any show - but aside from the original "omg" reaction to the role being made female, I think she comes across as having too much of an attiude rather than being "a strong strong character" - plus her perpetual smirk needs wiping off hehe. aside fro this - do you think the cylons are just playiing with the humans a bit? do they really know where earth is ? |

Nice one Kobold.
Firstly about 6.. I know what you mean and I can't get the snapping of the baby neck out of my mind either lol I justify like this, she knew they were all about to die anyway so although that doesn't forgive her action, that one scene added so much to the cylons (imo), it made them terrifying because of the cold and calculating nature of it.
I actually feel sorry for 6. I think she had fallen in love with Gaius and that's why she saved him, there was a scene in one of the recent episodes where someone mentioned Sharon being in love and she was on the verge of tears. I think there's more to 6 than meets the eye. I think maybe this is what the actress meant when talking about sympathy. I've got the book and she talks about it in that.
Those Grace Park photos.. good god.. assuming they're the ones I saw online.. not sexy at all imo. I adore Boomer, I think she may well be my favourite character and yes she's very easy on the eye too lol
So funny you mentioned Starbucks smirk, that thought had crossed my mind also at times. All up though I love having a kick ass chick, it makes a nice change.
Cylons knowing where earth is.. tough call. I'm still not sure what's going on exactly and that's how I like it. I have no doubt there'll be some huge overarching morlistic story like 'why can't we just all get along', as is already apparent. I just LOVE it!!
Thanks for the feedback!
And so say we all!

I just couldn't accept the fact that the cylons now look human - the old machine warriors were far more effective visually as baddies   |

Kev The new cylons aren't all human, they also have these really cool kick ass robot cylons, who are far scarier than the old styled ones.  Source: www.cylon.comYou should try and get into it because the fact they now look human adds a creepy sense of paranoia to the entire show, it's brill! |

its cheaper to have human looking aliens - look at all the rubber noses/foreheads they used in STTNG etc - saved a fortune I too miss the old cylons - I'd like to see one make a proper appearance- and say those magic words " by your command" john colicos would have been good too. I do like the new cgi cylons though. |

Dose anyone know if there are plans to show the new BSG on terrestrial tele? After reading about it I’d quite like to see it.
