If, as it seems apparent, the cylons always resurrect in the same looking body as before, and, as it seems apparent, if the cylons are human enough to age regularly, doesn’t that mean that at some point or another that Teirel and the other final 5 would have had to respawn?

Since the Rebels and Colonials are trying to destroy the Cylon’s ability to download (assuming that’s what you mean by “respawn”) it might be a moot question. But, no, I wouldn’t assume anything about the Final Five at this point — least of all that they can download. Look at it this way: If they were just like the other seven models, why were the SS programmed never to think about them, and D’Anna’s attempt to find out their identity trigger such an extreme reaction as boxing her entire model? Let alone ultimately triggering a Cylon Civil War.

You’d think one of the Final Five downloading into a Resurrection Ship would pretty much make that elaborate attempt at concealing their identities from the Seven pointless.

The 1 thing aabout the final five which keeps playing on my mind is that we know Adam met Tigh a long time before the pilot because of the flashback from the beginning of season 2, if that is the case the human models have been around for a long time (longer than we have thought prior to the end of season 3).

Well, RDM has said himself that the Final Five are “fundamentally different” from the Significant Seven, but I’ve got this question. I don’t think the ages of Tyroll, Tory and Anders have been firmly established but surely they’re all much younger than Tigh. Or at least appear so. Hum…

It seems to me that over the run of the series, we’ve gradually found that both the Cylon and the Colonials have been having their assumptions about their natures, their history and even their purpose kicked out from under them. And finding out the truth is seldom a comfortable or easy process.

prediction: dualla will eventually be killed off. she’s had so little screen time i’m beginning to wonder what purpose she even serves on the show anymore. 2 lines of dialogue since the season started? I wonder if she pissed somebody off at the studio?

Well, if you want to be a little less bitchy about it, perhaps BSG is the kind of show that isn’t full of prima donna actors who are more interested in counting their lines and close ups than doing good work? I’d like to see more of Dualla — and her character being a little more than the unhappy Mrs. Lee Adama — but in the end it’s about deploying a large (and IMNSHO vastly under-rated) ensemble cast to tell the story as well as you possibly can.

I am realy loving season 4. The fact that each episode links into the whole arc is great. Living in the uk means that i have seen the next episode – but i wont reveal any details here. We know that the final 5 are different to the other 7, im wondering if they r more human or closer to humans, because the 8s seem more human than the 6 or the other model. But perhaps whatever mind the cylon used to design the human models was getting closer which each atempt.

The opera house seems to have been a constant for all of the seasons yet i am wondering if it is on earth not kolbol or caprica and it will be the place where they finaly make contact with the humans of earth.

1 last point having watched a lot of Ronald D Moore’s programmes it would not suprise me if he did destroy the galactica at the end, or he might just thows us a complete curve ball and have somthing realy stange like earth is in the stone age and they r ancestors.

So I was checking out gizmodo the other day. catching up on past articles and they had this post which cracked me up. http://gizmodo.com/393426/cylon-baseships-run-windows-xp . Its not fake. I watched the episode again and there it was in plain sight.

It seems both the cylons and I are having the same problem. Windows XP keeps crashing our systems. lol. I wonder if this was the start of the whole conflict. Colonials wanted to convert all centurions to run Mac OS X.

Side note: So from the mid section of all these comments, it seems it was Matt’s Bday. Since some of us are not able to sing to you in person, here is Simon Pegg in our place… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xa-L4uvATbE ….
