I watched episode 13, I'm not going to spoil anyone with plot details, but it's a gutsy move to end it like that have. It's a big risk, a risk I'm not sure if the producers should have taken and if it was me I not sure if I would have taken it or not. What happened was a surprise, but considering I've not a fan of the actor playing the character in question, I can't say I shed a tear. There were a couple of things that didn't make sense to me, but that's just my opinion.

I like my Cylons made of chrome and black rubber, not looking like an actor with a blank stare!
That Cylon image is the total shizzle! If they looked like that, and they used the original theme, I'd be more sold on the show.
As it stands, I still like Olmos as Adama, but Apollo and Starbuck just don't cut it. Baltar is okay, but I really wish he were haunted by some scary-looking Cylon robot, not a supermodel who any guy would be GLAD to have in his head!order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

Scanned some old pics into my computer this weekend and I found these two shots.

Well, I found Episode 4 to be kind of confusing at first. You'll know what I mean when you see it. But later on you get used to it, and there's some good action toward the end. Also, there's THE SCENE I talked about, which is definitely a powerful one.
I forgot to add Episode 7 to the list . . . I found it to be so-so, but it has a few moments in it that are priceless. The character of Baltar really gets to shine in this episode.
But it wasn't until Episode 8 that I really felt moved by the series. That was one hell of an episode. It broke some rules, for sure.
Basically, I say stick it out until the end. Your opinions are bound to differ from mine. You might find some of the episodes I didn't like so much, to be more entertaining. The only truly dull episodes are 9 and 11.

The series started in the UK much earlier (for some retarded reason). So they have basically seen season one already. Not really sure what the deal is with them waiting it show it that late in the US.
Silly considering you can download the episodes from any number of sources if you really want to see them now.
oh well *shrug*

No no no, he was just suggesting "time shift" -- like vcrs, but going the other way in time.

The show was co-funded by Sky TV and NBC. You guys got the mini series first and we got the main series. Nothing retarded about that.

OK, I watched Episode 4 last night and I didn't hate it, and it did get better towards the end. The events with Starbuck seem to be mirroring the old story about Starbuck getting marooned on a planet with a cylon. I hope that's where they are going with it.
Looks like I am still in for Episode 5.
Oh yeah, I found out how it all ends accidentally. Interesting, can't wait to see how they resolve that if they do a second season.

For me, I didn't like the flashback within a flashback idea, it just didn't pan out and considering the whole crash sequence was shown on it's own at the end anyway, it seemed a little pointless. And the start, I wanted to see that explosion and those people getting suck out/ being caught up in it otherwise I just didn't buy it properly, it wasn't real enough. And I felt the whole celebration sequence at the start went on ridiculously long anyway and silly to begin with. The combat sequence at the end was put together well though.
I'm kinda wishing that BSG doesn't get it's 2nd season, that way it might teach the producers to wrap up their story's they've started instead of just assuming that they would get a 2nd season. Without knowing that 2nd season was a dead cert, I think it's a bad move to do what they've done, and I think you can kinda guess what's going to happen in the next episode anyway (assuming it even gets made).
But again, that's just my opinion.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

I just started watching the new BSG, and I like it  I missed some episodes and I'm trying to catch up, but I like it
About the Cylons...I saw robot-looking ones down on the planet surface. Are the human-looking ones just spies or something?

I don't get the Sci Fi Channel. I hope these go out on DVD someday. I liked the pilot which I saw from someone TIVO.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

I didn't like the flashback within a flashback idea either. The whole episode was jumping around from one time period to another, like crazy. And they made it obvious too early that Starbuck was going to survive her crash. (Sorry if I spoiled some of you, but the episode has been aired in the U.S. now.)
And the scene with the pod going off "accidentally" seemed forced. It would have been much better, if later on they discovered the accident was actually a deliberate act of sabotage. That would have worked better, I think.
For me, the "big" scene between Starbuck and Adama is really what saved this episode. The look on Adama's face and what he says to Starbuck, is dead-on perfect. That, and the dogfighting action at the end.
I think next week's episode will divide a lot of opinions. Some will think it's good, while other's will probably think it's kind of stupid. I guess I'll find out next week.

See, this is my basic problem with BSG MkII. I am watching with a sense of dread instead of a sense of anticipation. That sucks. I want to want to watch the show and like it, but instead I find myself picking it apart more and more. I keep hearing enough about the next episode to make me worry that it won't make me happy.
