i think lee was australian or new zeland…his accent wasnt sumtin im used to…and im pretty used to british accents cuz of friends and wayy too much british tv.
I think “they” were the non-rebel Cylons because they all pretty much get wiped out in the end and even if they are a few surviving baseships out there, without resurrection, they are as good as dead.
All BSG dvds are on sale at Amazon right now if anyone cares.

i gotta see that shit.
God DAMNIT!
It’s like as soon as I start really liking Starbuck, they have to piss me off by making her entire god damn existence so ambiguous. I’m sorry, but things like that I’d just rather have explained. It was kind of neat how she disappeared, and I can’t imagine a way for them to insert an explanation, but I still want to know. Just feels lazy on their part to me. Other than that, as a Starbuck hater for a long time, I admit she was way dope throughout these last episodes.
Baltar and Six :lovin: They’ve always been my favorite characters, and I’m glad they still left a hint of the cynicism in Baltar. Can’t really say much else than I’m glad how they were handled throughout almost the entire series, and the angel versions of them were somewhat satisfactorily explained.
And man, when the Chief killed Tory, godlike!! I’ve hated her ever since that moment, and that was exactly what needed to happen. On the subject of the Cylons, they excluded the 3’s from the Cylons that would go to Earth. Did I miss something? Were they reboxed somewhere along the lines and I just can’t remember?
Anyway, that’s all I can think of for now. Great show.
There is only one three left, and she kept really quiet since her last appearance. I am a little saddened they couldn’t get Lucy Lawless to show up for even just some kinda appearance in the background so we know she is still there.
I was under the impression that finding the original Earth nuked to hell and back was the last straw for her and she stayed behind there. “To get off this merry go round” or however she put it. We never see her again as far as I recall.
God damned, best series finale fucking ever. While they surely left a few threads open, no closure between Kara and Leoben, Kara’s child, the 3’s left off on Earth-1, Chief/Hotdog’s kid, stuff like that, it was a fucking hell of a ride. I don’t think I’ve seen a better battle than Act 2 of Daybreak. Act 3 felt pleasant, and while not everyone got a happy ending, it was enough.
…and FUCK, Chief just gets fucked over over and over and over. At least Cally got some justice. The second the flashbacks started happening about Cally getting spaced I was screaming at the TV “Choke that bitch out, Chief!!”
I’m gonna miss this show.
–jedi//.
I would have tried to smash before I broke her neck though.
I know Lee’s dead wife must feel kinda stupid now that they really found Earth lol.
I was re-watching season 2 yesterday and I saw the ep where the centurions boarded Galatica everyone was pissing in their pants.
They were pretty badass and didn’t take shit and the only thing that took them down were explosive rounds. In comparison it seems like they jobbed to the colonial alliance in the last ep falling to small gun fire I don’t even think they were using explosive rounds.
But its fun watching the show again knowing what will happen at the end and seeing it all slowly come together, great stuff.
The Starbuck thing is still a bit iffy to me.
If there was a higher power guiding all this shit. Was it really necessary to bring Starbuck back to achieve the ends this higher power wanted? Im sure someone else could have had their father teach them piano which leads to Hera drawing the notes which leads to earth and all that jazz.
I dont see how her dying and coming back serves any purpose but to just throw in a “damn bitch got phoenix down’d” moment in the show. The only reason I can see her coming back was to give Balthar more faith in the divine.
What do you guys think.
Starbuck’s role in the “divine plan” was to lead them to earth. After dying and resurrecting she was able to lead them to the nuked earth. The question you should ask yourself should be, why was Galactica led to the nuked earth. And the reason for that was to show the humans and the cylons that they need to break the cycle of violence and learn how to co-exist.
Starbuck got them to the nuked earth through her death and resurrection-- that was just the way the writers wanted that to happen. Maybe the writer’s did this to draw parallels to Christianity and Jesus but with a twist. Jesus died for the sins of humanity. Starbuck didn’t die for the sins of humanity but her resurrection allowed humanity to see a previous cycle of violence and war.
Even though “Angel” Six said she’d bet the new cycle won’t have war, does anybody else think it will? I doubt they broke the cycle. How? There’s a new civilization starting to have robots. They don’t know that it happened before. They don’t have any records of the survivors of the 12 colonies coming to their new Earth and starting over again. Without knowing about the war, they can’t learn from it. So they could just as easily get back to fighting. Unless that “anomaly” happens that the Six was saying.
I wonder how big of a cycle it really is. Did another human race and cylons come to the natives of Caprica/the other planets like the ships did to new Earth? That means that the people of the twelve colonies really are part Cylon.
I wonder if that’s not what Moore wanted to convey, and what was so strongly put across by Olmos at the UN. That there is only one race, and that eventually we’ll be able to create ourselves, or at least something that has a self-aware conciousness, and that not treating that, and eachother, as equals will result in more war and strife.
I think what Moore was trying to say is, that the Cylon - Human was was rendered pointless since we had a common ancestor anyway. Like how we hate other countries/races even though we’re all just human beings.
I can’t remember if anyone brought this up, but the whole “harbinger of death” thing was never addressed was it?
It’s been discussed.
