Darkness receding ever so slightly...check.
Humans still paranoid...check.
I've missed a few, but I've taped them so it's just a matter of finding time and sitting down to watch them. I did catch last weeks though. Just one thing to say about it: Oh man...
It's nice that the remants of humanity finally scored a significant victory, but was I thought was strange was Baltair's reaction to him being told he was an "Instrument of God" or something like that. Like his ego needed any more stroking...
It was still strangely appropriate in a way. I just hope they don't take that angle over the top. Of course it also can be the fleets downfall as well.
I just hope the writers handle it well.

I think they are doing it well.....Baltar is paranoid and psycho and this whole thing with the cylon in his head believing in god and doing every thing she can to push the god issue with him and I can't tell if this him being an instrument of god thing is him actually beliving it or him just agreeing with her because he knows if he doesn;t it will piss her off.

Ya, one thing I like about the new series is that Baltar didn't betray the humans like he did in the old one. I also like how the "crome toaster" cylons don't look like a guy in a costume.
What do you guys think about boomer being a cylon? that stinks. She was a cool character, but no they had to spoil that!
And I don't like the whole thing on Caperca.

Welcome duckdue and moreboost Well...the whole thing on Caprica has something to do with an experiment they are doing....they are trying to understand love I think....which is why as long as Helo stays in love with Boomer they will keep him alive....it's an interesting angle because you don;t know what they want to do with this yet. And I still love the original cylons.....I am hoping to see at least a couple appearances by them somewhere in the new series....maybe like a section of space where they are still in use or something like that. ;D

I agree. The CGI Cylons just don't look as cool. And why can't they talk? Sheesh! I keep bringing that up don't I? Oh well, I guess that really bugs me or something

I think the new Cylons look intmidating. Hearing them walking up on you, then seeing how large they are would intmidate me. Now, not to take anything away from the originals, I like them to, and that's one reason why they made our BSG banner - a little bit of new and old!

Well..last nights episode was pretty intense with the terrorist(Richard Hatch) almost becoming VP.....and trying to assasinate the current president on top of it... but Baltar being VP now should be interesting..like his ego wasn't already big enough...

I also hope they give a true salute to the original before the season ends. Yet I think that isnt gonna happen at all, ( legalities and royalities I think).
What kills me about Caprica is that the atmosphere just happen to be sunny........?.?.?....Huh...?.?.?.....Didnt a shitload of nukes go off all over the planet.?.?.?......Am I wrong.?.?.......Or should there not be some type of nuclear winter due to the abnormal abundance of nukes detonating everywhere.?.?.?......Hell, the amount of Rads they are absorbing should have killed them out right, no matter how much anti-rad meds they have. We saw the nukes detonating in a geodesic pattern for maximun efficiency.
And is it me or does someone seem like they work for the Guide.?.?.?.....lolol
and I find that the new Baltar is worse. At least you knew of the treachery of the original and he was proud of it, like some demented angel revolting from the norm, ( ie - the morningstar becoming the lord of darkness.) The new Baltar is some sniveling lil coward hiding his acts of treachery in a veil of denial to satisfy his self serving needs.
John Calicos was the best Arch-Villian IMHO. Ming the merciless could try to come close.........but would fail. As the original Balter, he took "over the top" to a new level.
Now the new Baltar is VP.?.?.?. Didnt get it to DvR on friday, Thank the Gods of Kobol they repeat on monday.
as far as their ability to communicate....it seems to me its more like a collective, as if they are linked somehow some way. While the originals were independant entities, with a thriving society. Like I said in an earlier post, It would seem that the new enemy of the day is anything Matrix/AI like. Cant attack anyone or anything for fear of some group starting a protest saying they are being villanized. Computers dont seem to take offense yet..........YET....
