Battlestar Galactica

OK, it is back and better than ever!

What a start. The show was a bit on the depressing side, but not quite Platoon or Saving Private Ryan. The two surprises on the “who is a Cylon” front were awesome!

SPOILDER ALERT
Don' t read further if you taped the show and have not watched it yet

(why the hell have you not watched it yet????)











OK, Who is the 5th Cylon? Tighs wife Ellen or Starbuck? I don’t know where this is going to go but I can’t wait for the ride to start up again with the next show!

They set things up so Starbuck looks like a Cylon, she finds her crashed ship and body then destroys the evidence but is she Cylon? How can she be #5 if Ellen sees Tigh at the end and says they will be reborn. . . Talk about a great twist!

There are 12 Cylon models, so where does that leave Starbuck? Is she a 13th no one knows about or is she a hybrid too?

And do the “Earth Cylons” have a resurrection hub somewhere that they use? Can all the Cylons use it to replace the destroyed one?

This show brought out more questions than it answered. I can’t wait to see the rest of this series to see how they wrap it all up.

Ronald D. Moore confirmed that Ellen Tigh is the fifth Cylon.

Has to be based on the ending but what the hell is Starbuck then?

This is a great show and getting better. The only good thing about it ending is learning all the cool stuff. Like B5 I will hate to see it go . . . .
